Happy Thursday, you pop culture junkies…

This week, Brooke tries to find humor while the economy and democracy come crashing down. What’s one to do when the world is on fire? Check out ALL the memes obviously. But truly, in this moment in time, we need all the humor we can get, so Brooke looks at how some creators are navigating the world of crashing stock markets and economies. And of course…the penguins.

You cannot talk culture this week and not talk about the season finale of “The White Lotus,” so if you don’t want spoilers, make sure to fast forward through that part. But also, how come you have NOT watched it? Come for the White Lotus memes, stay for the definition of Edging. You’re welcome.

And did you hear that Madonna and Elton John have MENDED FENCES and made up after a multi-decade feud? At least something in the world is healing.

And of course…we all must tune into “Love on the Spectrum”
