Let me start by apologizing for the hot mess express over here! *Insert cone of shame*
-
In today's episode we discuss EVENT DESIGN and what is going on with interactive museums and some out of the box thinking that we have come across when it comes to shopping, gatherings, weddings, etc.
-
These museums though...seem lit (is that still a cool kid word?).
-
There will definitely be some investigative journalism going on with the Houston (TX) based ones!! Work related of course...need to see if they are implementing the Covid protocols or if they are just for show.
-
We also touch on topics of: inflatable prisons, human displays, and the ULTIMATE HOLIDAY MOVIE.
-
Be careful exiting the hot mess express and if we can clarify anything for you...LET US KNOW!!
