Live Streaming Is Weird

This week's episode covers a lot — from holiday vibes to full-on sports chaos. We kick things off with what we're watching right now and a deep dive into our favorite Christmas movies (and yes, the classics get debated). Then we jump into tech, breaking down the new Snapchat AI setting, why everyone suddenly seems to be livestreaming their entire lives, and what all of this means for creators, privacy, and the future of social media. From there, it's onto the sports world, which is somehow even crazier: • NBA Cup Quarterfinals begin — who's left, who's hot, who's on upset alert • UFC's end-of-year madness and why so many titles changed hands • College Football Playoff chaos and why fans are furious with the committee (again) And to wrap things up, we talk Paige DeSorbo's new clothing line, how influencers keep reinventing the fashion model. AI, livestream culture, hoops, fights, football, fashion, and Christmas movies. It's December energy in one episode — messy in the best way.
