2025 Pop Culture breakdown: AI-Drake, Yakuza Zendaya & the Cowgirl Queen [Notebook LM Test]
Description
Warning : this episode’s audio was generated using Google’s Notebook LM, based on my own script and research—because I’m still working on loving my English accent.
Beyoncé going country, Zendaya as a Yakuza boss, AI singing instead of Drake, memes going on strike, and fashion shows that look like LAN parties… welcome to 2025.
In this special episode of Cappuccino & Croissant, I’m taking you on a (sarcastic but stylish) grand tour of the first three months of the year across movies, TV shows, music, television, fashion, luxury, tech, the web, and art.
A rich, absurd, sometimes visionary, and delightfully chaotic pop culture crash course.
📦 On the menu:
Oscars, Minecraft madness, and the indie film scene
Shōgun, mini-series overload, and streaming platforms in meltdown mode
Grammys, Coachella, and the AI music takeover
Super Bowl extravaganza, borderline reality TV, and legendary goodbyes
Futuristic Fashion Weeks, mutant watches, and ironic luxury flexing
Internet culture: ghost memes, TikTok supremacy, and real-life treasure hunts
Art world: Ghibli wonders, museum NFTs, and an upgraded MoMA
🎤 All delivered with sharp analysis + sweet jabs — like a real good croissant: crunchy on the outside, savage on the inside.
