Show Notes

A common request has been bubbling within the audience in recent weeks, and we're glad to deliver: On today's all-new episode of Constellation, the Brothers Moriarty are joined by storied game dev David Jaffe and Washington Post reporter Gene Park. Jaffe delves head-first into the scourge of so-called fake news, how it's negatively affected his outlook on the future, and wonders whether capitalism itself is to blame for our seeming self-destruction. Gene regales us with more amazing stories, this time regarding adult birthdays, the sometimes-insane celebrations that grown people partake in. Dagan wants to know -- as he approaches his 50th birthday -- if he should finally buckle under the pressure and get a tattoo. And Colin wonders if corporate subscription services are forever morphing our taste for content and our appreciation for art. Is there such a thing as unlimited value, or are we being shaken-down in ways we never thought possible?
