9.1 - Pair of Kings Season 9: We Wanted to Skip Season 9 Like Apple and Microsoft, But Messed Up So We're Now Actually Having Season 9
Picture a small, Victorian-era boy in a tartan vest and that hat that all the guys in Boston wear despite it being 2023. Ok - got it?
We're back! We're back! Read all about it! Pair of Kings are BACK!
Was that gag worth it? Probably not.
Michael (@_smithstagram) and Sol (@solthompson) are back to kick off Season 9: They're coming in with a new soundboard, new gadgets, and the first season with two cohosts in the same city! Wowzers!
Tap in as the boys talk about the ethics behind reps and fast fashion (SHEIN in particular), the evolution of what's desirable for men, Chief Keef, enhanced chemical weathering processes, Scandinavian and New York fashion trends, realizing that other people perceive you - yes, other people can perceive you - $3 dinners, separation of production and consumption, and a whole lot more!
We keep it shockingly on-topic, which is quite cool, and stay tuned for shiny, new video content over on the YouTube and TikTok!
Lots of love,
Sol
