Should We Leave??

It’s the Season 2 finale of Should We Leave?? and we’re ending the year exactly how we started: online, exposed, and laughing through it.

RELEASE ME FROM TH...

This week we’re talking about the lost art of dilly-dallying. Luisa makes the case for slowing down, looking up from your phone, and actually feeling something.

From planning to win the Powerball to redesigning car horns to reminding our...

This week on Should We Leave??, we’re leaning in — to the mainstream, to monopolizing the TouchTunes, and to our aging bodies.

Meanwhile, Daniel takes us back to his reign of terror over the TouchTunes at Boiler Room NYC — a power trip so real...
