I’m joined by Viviana Olen and Matt Harkins of THNK1994 for an off-the-record, al fresco debrief on the niches and sheeshes that defined Summer 2026. We get into the Phia cookie-stuffing scandal, AI-generated royal fanfic, Taylor and Travis’s MSG wedding, Gwyneth’s Sam Altman dinner, Next Gen NYC, Housewives fantasy casting, Kylie Jenner’s Meta glasses, the end of skin scents and, naturally, Big Kiwi’s very good summer.

Astrologer Mikey Domitrovich joins me for a spur-of-the-moment astro check-in on Barbault's Basket, a rare planetary configuration (peaking July 19–22) that French astrologer André Barbault called "the splendid relaunch of civilization."
