From Episode 305: youtube.com/live/s22iPbJsxws?si=fCrPDBQ6OwNUErke
John and Jeremiah talk about the moment at the Grammys when Billie Eilish referenced “stolen land” — and why we think the message comes off as ironic and hypocritical given the setting, the industry, and the broader context.
We unpack what land acknowledgments are meant to represent, how they’re often used in high-profile events, and where the conversation breaks down when symbolism replaces substance. This isn’t an attack on one person—it’s a bigger discussion about performative activism, selective outrage, and why these statements often raise more questions than they answer.
