They will still hold their positions of Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Although the reason behind the addition of these titles remains unclear, the tongue-in-cheek titles come not long after the company bought $1.5 billion worth of Bitcoin, back in February of this year. Tesla also announced that 2 they will start accepting payments in the form of Bitcoin soon, an event that went viral and became the catalyst that shot up the price of the cryptocurrency by as much as 20%. Some speculate the title ‘Master of Coin’ to be a Game of Thrones reference. Elon Musk has recently become famous for his bizarre stunts, from launching an EDM dance track on Spotify, selling flamethrowers, and discussing plans to colonize Mars, to tweeting eccentric, potentially controversial memes. Just yesterday the carmaker’s CEO mocked woke culture by tweeting a proposal for a game called Woketopia. The sarcastic tweet garnered mixed reviews from followers. https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1370880599641231360?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7 Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1370880599641231360%7Ctwgr%5E%7C twcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thepoptopic.com%2Felon-musk- adds-technoking-of-tesla-to-title%2F Past tweets have also gotten Musk into trouble. Back in 2018, his tweet suggesting that he might take the company private cost him and his company a total of $40 billion dollars in a settlement with the SEC, half of which was paid by Musk himself. On Monday, a Tesla investor filed a lawsuit against the company on account of Musk’s “erratic” tweets, and that those tweets allegedly violate their deal with the SEC. https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1026872652290379776?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7 Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1026872652290379776%7Ctwgr%5E%7C twcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thepoptopic.com%2Felon-musk- adds-technoking-of-tesla-to-title%2F In a separate filing on Monday, the company announced Jerome Guillen, who has been president of automotive since September 2018, transitioned last week to president of Tesla heavy trucking, a prototype of which was revealed by Musk in December of 2017. Production was then said to start in 2019. The company now plans to start deliveries by the end of 2021. 3 Photo Credit: AP Credit: AP CULTURE | POLITICS Matthew McConaughey Considering Running for Governor of Texas Hasita Goel March 12, 2021 2 min read Matthew McConaughey is “seriously considering” running for governor of Texas. The actor shared this news with Rania Mankarious on a recent episode of Crime Stoppers of Houston’s The Balanced Voice podcast on Wednesday. 4 If McConaughey launches his campaign, he will face incumbent Republic Greg Abbott who will run for his third term. The state elections will be on November 8, 2022, While on a promotional tour for his book, Greenlights, McConaughey aired some of the first comments about his potential run for governor. In November, conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt interviewed McConaughey. The actor called politics a “broken business.” He later said that he would be more interested in the job “when politics redefines its purpose.” “It’s a very honorable consideration. So am I considering that? Sure. It’s a great thing to and an honorable thing to be able to consider,” McConaughey told Al Roker, co-host of NBC’s Today show, in an interview yesterday morning. McConaughey is currently assisting with relief efforts in Texas as a result of last month’s storm. He is also organizing a virtual benefit “We’re Texas Virtual Event.” The program will air on his YouTube Channel and exclusively on Spectrum New 1 on March 21 at 7:00 pm CST. Is McConaughey a Democrat or Republican? That remains a bit ambiguous. In October, McConaughey appeared on the popular podcast The Joe Rogan Experience. He said in the interview that some people in Hollywood went “left so far… that is so condescending and patronizing to 50% of the world that need the empathy that the liberals have.” During the same interview, McConaughey gave a careful response when questioned about his views on defunding the police. “It’s almost like it should have been renamed,” he 5 said. “Because ‘defund’ does not sound anything like there’s been money reallocated to different areas of handling some police exercise,” the actor commented. Early in the pandemic, McConaughey filmed PSAs to promote masking and interviewed Dr. Anthony Fauci on Instagram. 6 Photo Credit: Graeme Jennings/Pool via AP Photo Credit: Graeme Jennings/Pool via AP POLITICS $15 Minimum Wage Loses Eight Democratic Votes Hasita Goel March 5, 2021 2 min read 8 democratic members along with 50 Republicans rejected the $15 minimum wage proposal. Thereby, bringing the total votes in favor to 42 when it needed 60 to pass. Democratic Senators Tom Carper of Delaware, Chris Coons of Delaware, Maggie Hassan from New Hampshire, Joe Manchin from West Virginia, New Hampshire’s Sen. Jeanne Shaheen, 7 Kyrsten Sinema from Arizona, and Montana’s Sen. Jon Tester, all voted against the proposal. Sen. Angus King of Maine, who is an Independent but has long supported Democrats also voted against the idea. Senate Parliamentarian Elizabeth MacDonough last week ruled against the measure of including the $15 minimum wage in the $1.9 trillion COVID-19 relief bill. Despite this, a group of progressive senators led by Bernie Sanders introduced an amendment and forced a vote on the policy change anyway. Progressives were understandably upset about the result of the events. “At a time when millions of people are working for starvation wages … when the President of the United States and the House of Representatives support it, it is absolutely imperative that the Senate approve an increase in the minimum wage to $15 an hour,” Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders, who also chairs the Budget Committee said in response to the news. The minimum wage, last raised on July 24, 2009, when it rose from $6.55 to $7.25 per hour, has not changed since. Pennsylvania’s Lieutenant Governor John Fetterman, who is running for the Senate in 2022, said that “every single senator who voted against a $15 minimum wage today should be forced to live on $7.25 an hour so that they can demonstrate to all of us how it’s possible.” Opposing democrats assert, the amendment doesn’t belong in the $1.9T COVID fund relief bill 8 Democrats that voted against feel that the measure should not be included in the COVID relief bill. Instead, the Senate should hold an open debate and amendment programs for the issue separately. After voting nay, Kristen Sinema took to Twitter to call the raise a “no-brainer” https://twitter.com/kyrstensinema/status/443584873048309760?ref_src=twsrc%5Etf w%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E443584873048309760%7Ctwgr%5E %7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thepoptopic.com%2F15- minimum-wage-loses-eight-democratic-votes%2F Arizona’s Sen.Kyrsten Sinema, who voted against the measure, said, “Senators in both parties have shown support for raising the federal minimum wage and the Senate should hold an open debate and amendment process on raising the minimum wage, separate from the Covid-focused reconciliation bill.” Sen. Chris Coons of Delaware, another democrat against the raise said in a Friday statement that he would work “on legislation to raise the minimum wage and index it annually,” saying a minimum wage of $7.25 “is too low and has been for too long.” 9 Photo Credit: @sethrogen/Twitter; @houseplantcanada/InstagramPhoto Credit: @sethrogen/Twitter; @houseplantcanada/Instagram CULTURE | LIFESTYLE/ENTERTAINMENT

  • Analysis First Draft the Joe Rogan
    Analysis First Draft The Joe Rogan Experience (JRE) is one of the highest consumed and most popular podcasts to have ever emerged in social media and culture. With that being said it is also one of the most criticized and distinguished media platforms to be characterized as a podcast. It is a unique show that operates with an open ended style discussion and features new guests on each episode. These guests have included professional athletes, scientists, politicians, billionaires, and even just friends of the show’s creator and host Joe Rogan. Rogan started the JRE in 2013 and by 2015 the show was one of the most viewed podcasts in the world averaging around a million views per episode (Warren). As a fan of JRE, I would say that it would be a difficult task to be a completeist, there are over 1500 episodes and counting in the collection. And Rogan typically dishes out a heavy amount of content with around three episodes a week on average, an attribute to keeping engagement of the JRE audience. Since playing as a leading piece in the surge of podcasting and the formation of culture and subcultures that surround it on Youtube’s medium, JRE has caught the attention of other multimedia platforms looking to make their way into this flourishing industry. Rogan just recently signed an exclusivity agreement for the podcast with Spotify’s company. Katy Warren at Business Insider said that, “Spotify announced in May that Rogan's podcast would be available on the platform starting September 1st, 2020 and that it would become exclusive to Spotify in 2021.

Evidenced by news headlines, popular culture, and daily life, the relationship dynamics between men and women have rapidly transformed in recent years. While modern feminism is being celebrated and empowering people all over the world, the other side of the coin, modern masculinity, has proven less easy to talk about. As we’ve made strides in equality and female empowerment, men’s issues have been put on the backburner but are now bubbling over. It’s clear that the time to discuss masculinity is now. The term “toxic masculinity”—defined by Wikipedia as “certain norms of masculine behavior in North America and Europe that are associated with harm to society and to men themselves”—has become ubiquitous. Men are lacking the role models showcasing healthy modern masculinity and instead are fed outdated archetypes from the unattractive slobs and stoners of comedy to the unattainably heroic superheroes of the Marvel and DC universes.
