Episode Synopsis

Once, live music was magic. Now it’s a luxury… a candid breakdown of what’s gone wrong with concerts—from inflated ticket prices to declining merch quality. Ryan shares his father’s $12 Pink Floyd memory, setting up a stark contrast with today’s sky-high costs like $1,100 Rush seats. They confront the market forces, the Ticketmaster effect, and why so many are skipping the big shows for smaller venues. It’s more than nostalgia—it’s a reality check on how financial pressure is reshaping culture, capped by a shift into the hidden costs of homeownership. Originally aired on 2025-11-03
