MAEKAN It Up #003 tackles four topics inspired by our twice-a-week newsletter, the Briefing. Today we discuss the award-winning movie trailer Everything and the relationship between movies and gaming, the NY Times\' AI-moderated commenting system, when sponsorship goes south due to politics, and TONL, a diversity-minded stock photography platform.

MAEKAN It Up features Editor-in-Chief Eugene Kan, and MAEKAN Community Manager and Designer Charis Poon. The podcast uses our twice-a-week MAEKAN Briefings as a starting point from which we dig deeper into the meaning and impact of changes happening within creative culture.

As an added element, each week, Eugene and Charis will contribute on-the-spot illustrations of the topics heard over the course of the podcast. Take away a new sense of confidence in yourself having seen Eugene\'s work.
