season one: the spinning top world
A subculture-a-season documentary podcast
One obsession. One season. All the way in.
Get Notified at LaunchEvery subculture has a governing body, a dynasty, a rivalry, an internet feud, and someone who quit their job for it.
Most people have never heard of any of them. We go all the way into one obsession per season — the history, the personalities, the internal drama — for people who didn't know they cared until they did.
Season One
The Spinning Top World
A real governing body. A four-time world champion. An engineer who quit his job and built a brand off Kickstarter. Forum wars over $200 tops. And a 900-person world-record attempt in a Mexico City plaza.
