It's the team's final full day in Cannes. Gen Z trend forecaster Casey Lewis drops by to wait out the thunderstorm/share her top takes of the week, and a trump card celeb-sighting. Eli & Clara share the themes they're taking away from this year's programming after a week of panel discussions, manic dashes for sustenance, and holding meetings in direct sunlight. Hosted on Acast.

Top hits on Day 3 of Cannes: Eli courts an “immersive” hydration partner for the pod, Clara recaps a panel with fan-favorite Survivor season 37 “Brains vs. Brawn” finalist Mike White, both discuss the pleasures and pitfalls of passed hors d’oeuvres.

It’s the first of four live-ish dispatches from the Cannes Lions Festival of Creativity. The lanyards are on. Some, more inconspicuously placed than others. Clara and Eli, having defeated jet lag—and feeling semi-hydrated—discuss an auspicious mic cut that precluded an audience Q&A with the CMO of Open AI, less yachts, more Orcas? A word from Bud Light, and Clara weighs a permanent life change. Plus, our predictions for the week ahead. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
We’re going on a break for a few weeks! But before we do, we talk about how the most sauceless couple you know are doing Carolyn Bassette and JFK Jr. cosplay, the viral Interview magazine piece about the “Finest Boys in Finance,” and why fashion was better when it was about the clothes, not the business.

Nilay Patel is the editor-in-chief of The Verge and host of Decoder with Nilay Patel. The Verge is “about technology and how it makes us feel,” and Nilay knows people don’t feel so hot right now. We speak with him about how founders have never been more transparent about the negative impacts of their product, how AI products are actually bad, the poison that is prediction markets on our information ecosystem, why Gen Z will ultimately turn on the brand deal economy, and the moment he realized everything is just fans.

We dive into Greg Ip’s article in the Wall Street Journal talking about how people aged 65 and older are healthier, wealthier, and, essentially, propping up the entire American economy. We also discuss if brands are going to shift their attention towards the “silver economy,” stretched adolescence, rotisserie chicken, books as cultural signals, and the death/end of the mass-market paperback.

Ian Michna is the founder of Jenkem Magazine. We talk with him about bringing an outside perspective to skateboarding, being a good beginner, why a combination of fear and shame keeps skateboarding alive, cold plunges with “Andy” Huberman, how Jenkem works with brands as a boutique agency, and why most things that turned out well also could’ve been terrible.Recommended this week:Be a beginnerGo to Amoeba and shop for records based on their album artWhere to find Ian:@ian.michna@jenkemmag jenkemmag.comyoutube.com/@jenkemmag Hosted on Acast.

We begin with a very brief Super Bowl recap, where Eli was one lazy holding call away from a handful of benjamins. Then, we put some respect on some of the American athletes sweeping, skating, and skiing in Milano Cortina. Nothing cooler than being extremely good at one specific thing. And finally, Clara and Trey dive into a lively debate centered around Joshua Rothman’s latest piece in The New Yorker, “Is Good Taste a Trap?” Yes.

Ahead of the Super Bowl, we caught up with Adweek’s Senior Media Reporter Mark Stenberg to help us contextualize the trends we’re seeing in this year’s crop of commercials and identify what you should look out for as you watch on Sunday. We cover the rise of the multi-week attention ecosystem, why we’ll see more health-focused ads, and more. Plus, we get Mark’s thoughts on the integration of prediction markets into media platforms and whether he buys that people trust journalists less than funeral home directors.
