What do stoned monkeys, influencer diplomacy, and Katy Perry in a space suit have in common? Honestly... more than you'd think.
This week on Easily Entertained, Maddy dives into the chaos and curiosity that is the current pop culture landscape:
- 🐒 The Stoned Ape Theory — Did human consciousness start with psychedelic monkeys? We investigate (lightly, humorously, and with a healthy dose of skepticism).
- 🥤 Influencer attempts contact with the most isolated tribe on Earth... armed with a Coca-Cola — You can't make this up.
- 🎡 Coachella in its flop era? Long lines, influencer campsites with rugs and potted cacti, and a vibe shift you could feel through the dust.
- 🚀 Blue Origin’s latest space flex — Jeff Bezos, Katy Perry, and other billionaires go on an 11-minute joyride… and yes, the internet has thoughts.
- 📉 Recession Pop is real — Why nostalgic, emotionally-charged bops are on the rise again, and what they have in common with the music of 2008.
- 👀 Headlines & hot takes: Diddy updates, Russell Brand’s charges, and why Mexico said “absolutely not” to Fyre Fest 2.
Let’s explore the weird, the wild, and the what the hell is happening of it all.
