update s06e73: uncut gems

the side eye was strong because we knew something was off with uncut gems!

we asked questions that only made sense: how were the Safdie brothers have SO MUCH pull? something is up and someone else thinks so too

@sewerbum on tiktok did a dive on what diamond mines actually look like vs the horrid conditions that lead to conflict mining such as what’s happening in the Congo

apparently, a jeweler (who happened to be on the set of uncut gems), maksud “trax” agadjani

has taken the opinion that lab grown diamonds are actually the problem because it would “take away from the people’s right to work,” to which Isa (@sewerbum) rightfully calls bullsh*t

you can get into the breakdown here and follow along as trax spirals outta control in response
