We Love 2018 & 2019

from Pop Culture Junkie® · host Pop Culture Junkie

The 2010s…what a decade, right? There were good times, probably, and bad times too, and pop culture was there to get us through it all. The Pop Culture Junkie Podcast is looking back at the halcyon days between 2010 and 2019 with a five-part series we’re calling We Love the 2010s. This week, Alex, Hayley, Nicole and Shauna finish out the decade with a look at the years 2018 and 2019.In 2018, when we weren’t eating Tide Pods, we were arguing whether we heard “Yanny” or “Laurel”. It was the year of Childish Gambino, Cobra Kai and Crazy Rich Asians, We said “Thank U, Next” to Drake memes, changing Stephen Crowder’s mind and self-driving cars, but we loved The Haunting of Hill House, Bohemian Rhapsody and The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina and saying “Wakanda Forever!”2019 was the (merciful) end of the decade, and in the final year of the 2010s, we learned that “Midsommar” could be a verb, Cats could have boobs (and buttholes!), Aunt Becky from Full House would do anything to get her kids into a good school, and Sonic the Hedgehog had human teeth. Shudder. Other things sparked joy, like a Real Housewife arguing with a cat, Billie Eilish, Lil Nas X and Baby Yoda from The Mandalorian. And before you could say “Ok, Boomer,” the decade was over.Thank you to Olympus Games, the home of the Pop Culture Junkie Podcast.2018 SoundbitesBohemian Rhapsody | 20th Century FoxCobra Kai | Netflix“Experts Warn of Tide Pod Challenge” – CBS News“The Hidden Meanings Behind Childish Gambino’s ‘This Is America’ Video” – Inside Edition
