For our final episode of Respectfully Disagree this year, we dive into the biggest cultural moments of 2024 — from Taylor Swift's Eras Tour to breakout films this year; to celeb (read:influencer) culture, and a spur of conservative internet phenomenons. Join us as we unpack what made waves, what fizzled out, and what left us questioning everything.
Here are some articles published through the year on some topics we've discussed:

Is Nihilism the Mood of the Moment?
What motivates us when everything feels meaningless? This week on Respectfully Disagree, we dive into nihilism as the mood of the moment—from climate catastrophe TikToks to dark humor in TV, and how shared dread has reshaped our culture. Plus, we play a bonus game to unpack this year’s most existentially absurd moments.
