## Content
Consumerism has become our secular religion. The brands we worship, the logos we covet, the aspirational iconography we chase–it's all just storytelling and we're buying the story. This week, artist @tomsachs on the paradox of loving beautiful things while being repulsed by the machinery that produces them, why creativity is the enemy, the power of sympathetic magic, and what happens when you build a space program out of plywood and faith–and NASA comes calling. Now available on the Rich Roll pod, all streaming platforms. Link is in my bio.
