Happy New Year!

In this episode, I’m kicking off 2026 with my official pop culture ins & outs — what I’m leaving firmly in 2025 and what I’m manifesting for the year ahead.

From controversial internet figures and exhausted celebrity discourse, to trends I’m officially done pretending to enjoy, I break down the moments, people, and vibes I’m ready to move on from. On the flip side, I get into what I do want more of in 2026: new pop girl energy, Canadian cultural domination, a proper song of the summer, a 2010s-inspired music revival, exciting film moments, and long-awaited returns from some of my favorite artists.

We also talk music trends, movies, TV, internet culture, fashion obsessions, and why 2026 might finally be the year pop culture feels fun again.
