So… What’s Going to Happen in 2026? With Jan Fran

For our first Small Talk of the year, we’re joined by award winning journalist Jan Fran, now also the co-founder of Ette Media alongside Antoinette Latouff - for a big, messy, start-of-year powwow about where things are headed in 2026. To kick off I’ve pulled together a few predictions from Vogue Business, Australian Financial Review, The New York Times and Reuters, and put them all on the table. From lifestyle shifts (are dumb phones about to make a comeback?) to how we’ll consume media, escapism, changes in journalism to Chat GPT boyfriends.  It’s not science or a crystal ball. It is a much needed powwow before a year that already feels… a lot (and it’s only January).  ETTE MEDIA LIVE SHOW LINK  Big Small Talk Instagram Sarah-Jane's Instagram   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
