In which Matt says “fuck the Metaverse, all my homies hate the Metaverse” but Heather shouts back “LET 👏 PEOPLE 👏 ENJOY 👏 THINGS 👏.”

Join Heather, Glen and Matt for the second half of their discussion on the Metaverse. This time round, Matt attempts to make a few extremely insightful points into the true nature of desire and the impossibility of any liberation from its indestructible shackles, but Heather and Glen spend most of the hour making fun of him for watching Law and Order: Special Victims Unit.

Were smart phones a mistake? Will the Metaverse be different? Would you fuck Slavoj Žižek? Let us know on Twitter, Instagram or at casementsleftovers@gmail.com
