Ken Marino and David Wain met at NYU in 1988 where they co-founded the legendary sketch comedy group THE STATE. They stayed friends and collaborators over the years, working together on movies like Role Models, Wet Hot American Summer, and Wanderlust and TV shows like Children’s Hospital, Medical Police, and of course The State. Ken also has acted in literally every television series, and currently stars on The Other Two (HBO) and Party Down (Starz). They are ALSO middle-aged dads and wannabe rockstars. So recently they got together with a group of other old friends (some dads, some not; some middle aged, some not) and started jamming, playing a diverse songbook of classic rock, pop, Motown, alt, New Orleans, favorites from the ’60s, ’70s and ’80s.

Sequels, reboots, franchises, and songs that remake old songs! Does it feel like everything new in popular culture is just derivative of something else or something old? Contrary to popular belief, the reason is not audiences or marketing, but Wall Street. Join UCSD Media and Popular Culture professor Andrew deWaard for a stimulating discussion of his new book "Derivative Media: How Wall Street Devours Culture" and how hedge funds, asset managers, venture capitalists, private equity firms, and derivatives traders set the tone for the movies, TV, and popular music you enjoy. Professor deWaard shows us how the financial sector is destroying culture by upwardly redistributing wealth. He offers crucial analysis not just for people who oppose corporate behavior for ethical reasons or the takeover of our mediascapes that harms creativity and culture, but also for consumers who simply want to be entertained or have a good time.
