Marine and the Hippie 220122 S02E03- NetFlix City

The Marine and the Hippie

In this dialogue, we discuss the rise of binge watching on streaming services like Netflix. The process of binge watching a program has become a new, relatively ubiquitous activity during the pandemic, and involves people sitting and watching a show, episode after episode for hours at a time. Like the dealer in a crack den, this constant feeding of television addiction serves the business model of the services who lure people in with promises of cheap entertainment and get them hooked on the product for a very long time. We also see this model spread across the economy, especially in places where we cannot avoid corporations feeding our dopamine and serotonin jones' with cheap garbage day in and day out. The Crack Den has replaced the casino as a model of the economy in many sectors of our society.
