Why do we keep buying crap we don’t need with money we don’t have to impress people we don’t like? In this episode of Talk of the Tavern, Travis, Ed, and Andrea throw back a few drinks and dive headfirst into the glittering black hole of consumer culture. From impulse buys to marketing manipulation, we ask the big questions—like whether we’re addicted to spending, or just expertly trained by capitalism. And yes, we’re judging you for that $600 air fryer/espresso hybrid you used once.
What’s on Tap?🛒 The psychology of buying: Are you in control, or just a well-trained wallet?
📦 Retail therapy: Temporary fix or emotional dumpster fire?
📱 Social media & FOMO: Why influencer culture is draining your bank account.
🎁 Holiday madness: Do we even like the people we’re buying gifts for?
🧾 The minimalist backlash: Are you a hoarder or just “collecting future value”?
Toasts, Topics, & Tangents🔥 Ed talks about the mountain of Amazon boxes he’s “totally going to reuse.”
🔥 Andrea confesses to accidentally buying 14 lip balms in one week.
🔥 Travis rants about planned obsolescence and the cult of “limited edition.”
Join the Conversation!What’s the weirdest thing you’ve impulse bought? Do you regret it... or are you still lying to yourself?
