San Francisco has recalled three school board members, as voters found no comfort in their efforts to rename, re-paint, and rid schools of merit-based admissions…instead of just opening them. Plus, it's Vexillology Corner with Ted Kaye, and an eye-opening nugget of Disney Princess trivia.

CoinDesk Podcast Network - BREAKDOWN: JPMorgan Moves Into the Metaverse
But does this highlight adoption, risk or both?
This episode is sponsored by Nexo, Arculus, and FTX US.
On today’s episode, NLW looks at the news that JPMorgan has opened a lounge in Decentraland. Specifically, he explores whether the growing corporate interest in the metaverse is a positive reflection on the accessibility of the metaverse, or if it should also represent a warning to a Web 3 community that is dreaming of an open, permissionless new internet. The episode also looks at two recent bills in Congress, one which would help preserve consumers’ ability to self-custody their digital assets, and one that would draw reserve guidelines around stablecoins.

CoinDesk Podcast Network - NEW MONEY: Music Meets Money – How R&B Legend Mario Is Getting the Bag
Blockchain tech is enabling direct fan-to-artist relationships and can bring the power back to the artists.
If you’re a big artist signed to a big label, there’s a high chance that label will have significant control over your music, production, tours, releases and more. R&B legend Mario knows this better than anyone because he’s recently transitioned from a major label to working as an independent artist.
Mario joins “New Money” hosts Spencer Dinwiddie and Solo Ceesay to pull the curtain back on the inner workings of the music industry, revealing the secrets of streaming, music rights and the problems that come with the centralization of music.
Blockchain technology might just present a solution for artists. Mario envisions a future where a label or social media platform cannot limit or control the income of the creators. The question remains: How soon can artists expect this future?
