In this episode we discuss a variety of topics from military spending, racist trademarks and our future job perspectives. It’s a bird, it’s a plane, it’s… well actually it is a plane but should we still be buying it? A band tries to register their contentious name as a trademark but should they be allowed to? Jobs are fleeing the country but is it really Mexico or China’s fault? Listen to our thoughts and don’t forget to send us your feedback!
