Boys Club

Introducing a brand new podcast in the Boys Club network!  Context: Views on Crypto & Culture is hosted by Blake Finucane. Boys Club loves Blake because she contains multitudes - she's an art historian and venture capitalist, who published the world's first academic thesis on crypto art in 2018. In Season One, Blake is bringing the brains to Boys Club, and will be using this podcast to unpack how crypto impacts culture and vice versa. Expect a longer form, informative pod with absolutely fire guests lined up.

We take a fun look back at the year, reflect on Boys Club highlights, what’s surprised us most about the year, and our favorite failures. We also chat through our best purchases and top memes. We go from vision boards and journaling to Bo Burnham and Succession and hit every beat along the way. Listen for a good time.
