  • Season 2, Episode 19: Haka-thon
    2024/11/21
    Happy Thursday, pop culture junkies! This week, Brooke dives into the viral video of the moment from New Zealand’s Parliament! Never thought these words would be written. But it’s all haka all the time. Also, of course, we have the fight — if that’s what we want to call it — between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul (not to be confused with his older brother Logan). And, of course, some political memes because we live in a simulation. https://popculturemondays.com/2024/11/18/the-haka-for-everything-edition/ https://www.tiktok.com/@waateanews/video/7437269478649498896

    2024/10/24
    Before Brooke heads out on a quick vacation, she gives us an explainer for all things Chicken Shop Date and its host, Amelia Dimoldenberg, and why she and Andrew Garfield have broken the Internet. Brooke also raves about her new favorite show straight from across the pond, “Rivals,” on Hulu. It’s a bonkbuster, as they say! And, of course, a few more pop culture moments are discussed. https://popculturemondays.com/2024/10/21/the-chicken-shop-edition/ Chicken Shop Date https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eFS5vxYlfY8

  • Season 2, Episode 15: Calgon, Take Me Away
    2024/10/17
    SNL isn’t always at the center of pop culture these days, but this past weekend was a doozie with Stevie Nicks as the musical act and Ariana Grande as the host. It was a show full of some great moments, which Brooke highlights. But it’s also a heavy time as the election creeps up, and Brooke acknowledges that the anxiety is impacting a lot of people. And why a pop culture escape is necessary! From “In da club” on TikTok to a totally AI generated restaurant in Austin, Brooke breaks down some of the ways people are escaping this week. Can you also add the links of the videos that Brooke already shared with you for audio? The SNL links on YouTube.

  • Season 2, Episode 14: The Eye of the Storm
    2024/10/10
    This week, Brooke spends a lot of time talking about the horrifying hurricane that is impacting Florida and promising to be one of the most destructive. She looks at how people are taking to social media not just to show what they’re doing to prep or to evacuate but also to use the opportunity to tell stories about themselves that, let’s just say, are in poor taste. Brooke also talks about her thrill at being featured this week in Bob Lefsetz’s iconic newsletter, The Lefsetz Letter, and tells the story of how that came to be. Then we have sleepmaxxing and mouth tape and the new phenomena of sparkly freckles brought to us by Taylor Swift.

  • Season 2, Episode 12: Brat Summer. Now It’s Moo Deng Fall.
    2024/09/26
    Brooke starts off this week by explaining her personal reasons for being more publicly vocal against Trump. Then, while the Diddy news has been much discussed, including in this week’s newsletter, Brooke talks specifically about the growing noise around an alleged Justin Bieber song that includes lyrics about a Diddy party, but which is actually an AI-generated track that’s been making the rounds since April. And we can’t talk pop culture this week and not talk about Moo Deng, the adorable, chonky potato pygmy hippo from Thailand. We finish off with a little Menendez brother chitchat and Brooke’s favorite new show, The English Teacher.
