Podcasts about yadayada

Vad har filtar, emojis och känslan av att vara mätt gemensamt? De borde endast vara för tjejer – om man frågar Fanny Ekstrand och Carin Falk i veckans avsnitt av Kort-Kort från Yada Yada. I detta rappa och syrligt roliga snack dyker duon ner i TikTok-trenden "Only for the Girls" och listar allt som killar borde hålla sig borta från. Det snackas sociala medier, nyspassiv aggressivitet och varför tummen upp-emojin borde pensioneras omedelbart. Missa inte 10 minuter av kärlek, kritik och kulturanalys på högst personlig nivå. Kort sagt: det är Kort-Kort.

Carin spenderar i genomsnitt 7,5 timmar om dagen på mobilen, är det rimligt? Är det ett missbruk? Är det en flykt? Framförallt, är det ett problem? Fanny riktar träffsäkert sin PMS mot Hailey Biebers relation med Justin. En helt vanlig onsdag med Yada Yada.

INTRODUCING: KORT-KORT! Ett nytt kortare måndagsformat från Yada Yada. Tio minuter, ett ämne, en lista. Varje vecka turas vi om att bjuda på snabba spaningar, ytligheter vi älskar och saker vi inte kan släppa. Lite rivigare, lite flamsigare, lite mer mode. Kort och gott: Kort-kort! Veckans lista: Är det en bra idé eller är det bara försommar?

Fanny har tagit körkort och i sann Yada Yada culture anda är det en livsomvälvande upplevelse som innehåller ALLA känslor.

Happened In the 90's hosted by Steve and Matt picks a day, any day, and then goes back in time to that magical decade we all know and love the 90's, to revisit episodes of tv, movies that premiered, or cultural events that occurred on that day in the 90's. This week Steve & Matt discuss nerdy Robocops in Chicago &, well, yada yada yada.SEGMENT 1Show: Family MattersEpisode: "Robo-Nerd II” (Season 3 | Episode: 23)Premiere Date: 4/24/1992Story: A reprogrammed Urkelbot is sent to fight crime, and proves to be instrumental in foiling a serial convenience store robber. Meanwhile, the women find (to their horror) that a new shampoo has caused them to go bald.SEGMENT 2Show: SeinfeldEpisode: "The Yada Yada" (Season 8 | Episode: 19)Premiere Date: 4/24/1997Story: Tim Whatley converts to Judaism. Kramer and Mickey double date. George's girlfriend says, “yada yada” a lot Jerry's accused of being an anti-dentite.

Det är bröllopssäsong och frågorna haglar tätt: vad ska man ha på sig? Ska man ha tårta? Vad är inne och vad är ute för bröllop 2025? Fanny och Carin tar sig friheter att hylla, dissa och trendspana allt som rör bröllop i Yada Yada's bröllopsmagasin 2025!

Vi välkomnar vår första gäst till podden: Michaela Hamilton!!! Hon är en blond, storbystad manusförfattare som hade premiär av sin första originalfilm på Netflix 2024, En Del Av Dig. Vi pratar om hur man förhåller sig till det mörka i livet och hur Michaela orkar grotta så mycket i det i sitt skrivande. Vi pratar också om killar, snygga vs fula, hur det är att vara mamma och hur man spår sig själv i chatGPT. Det är inte ett helt orörigt avsnitt :)

Dejtingmarknaden borde vara lite mer som bostadsmarknaden och inte tvärt om!! I veckans program av Yada Yada pratar Fanny och Carin om varför det vore en välgärning om singlar tvingades specificera sitt singelskap mer, varför träning blivit som en drog för Carin och hur fint det är att kunna se sin livskris mer i backspegeln än framför motorhuven så att säga (bra med bilreferenser från två personer utan körkort).

Psalm 46:10-11 - Pastor Robert Kratzer - 03/09/25, Sun AM - Living Word Assembly, Jennings, LA. Plea...

We talk about this great episode, argue about land lines, yada yada yada, that's what she said.

Är det fucking Vivaldi eller är det Yada Yada? För vårens säsong presenteras med buller och brak, stråkar och skrik i falsett. Det är gåshud på hela kroppen. Tjejer, vi ger er ******* spring!

Yada Yada ger råd!!! Tjejerna sätter tänderna i problem som ni har skickat in. Eftersom både Fanny och Carin ställer sig så tveksamma till influencers som ger råd så kändes detta som den enda vägen framåt.

The topic of birthright citizenship inspires our in-house constitutional scholar to take a look at the amendments! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Tjejerna har fått ett EXTREMT spännande DM på Yada Yada's Instagram som may or may not ändra riktningen på Carin's dejtingliv. Och veckans avsnitt handlar faktiskt, inte helt opassande, om hur man förvandlar sin kris till en romance novel. Hur kan man förändra allt genom att tänka på den dramaturgiska bågen? Fanny håller skrivarkurs och Carin kommer eventuellt låta ChatGPT skriva en hel bok.

Starlight Thursdays Episode 225. We're thrilled to Import Art Van Delay's export to the series. He's recently moved to Montana from Las Vegas, Not that there's anything wrong with that… And people need to know the truth,so apparently we're doing an interview. How long have you been DJing?  My entire life Nobody is going to be leave that. I mean what are you gonna say when someone asks why you decided to be a DJ?  Well, let me tell you, it's not like I woke up one day and said, "Hey, Art, you know what would be great? Standing in front of a bunch of people and pretending to be cooler than you actually are." No, no. It started out small. I was always that guy who made the mixtapes for road trips, you know? Friends would say, "Art, you have impeccable taste in music," and I'd think, "Yeah, I do, don't I?" Then, one thing led to another. Someone at a party handed me the auxiliary cord. Hold on an Auxiliary cord Come on George. ART its ART! We Gotta Stick To The Story!!!! I'm getting angry!!! Yes, Jerry an Auxiliary cord and boom, I was in control. It was like being the maestro of social interaction. People danced! They actually danced because of me! I thought, "Art, you've found your calling. You're not just a guy who lives with his parents; you're a master of ceremonies, a purveyor of beats, a DJ!" So, here I am, spinnin records, making people move, and thinking, "Maybe this is what you were meant to do all along." It's a delicate balance, like a TV episode—awkward, hilarious, but somehow it just works. Gorge, I mean Art, A maser of ceremonies? But you are a guy who lives with his parents. I mean where have you even been DJing? We'llllll Jerrrry it just so happens I've been DJing at Soup nazi's beats & eats, Festivus fest, Serenity Now! Campout, Electric Kramer Carnival and Crystal Mountain 2024 Art at least half of those festivals you made up. What if someone looks into this. There going to know… Nobody looks into this stuff it happens all the time Jerry. These days DJs just make up social media pages with a bunch of photos with hot women and boom next thing you know off to Spain in a privet jet. I don't think that's how it works George. ART! So you mean to tell me people are supposed to believe you're originally from Detroit, you DJ festivals under the name Art Van Delay and what are you going to tell them when they ask what inspired you to do that?  Inspiration? HA! Let me tell you about inspiration. You know that feeling when you find the perfect parking spot right in front of your building? That's what DJing is like for me. It's a moment of pure, unadulterated victory. So Art, what's the deal with this electronic music culture stuff anyway, I mean it's music and its culture, I just don't understand?  Okay Jerry, It's all about the freedom, the energy, and sheer unpredictability. First off, the people. You've got all these folks from different walks of life, coming together in this crazy, pulsating environment. It's like a big, dysfunctional family reunion, but with better music and less judgment. You look around, and everyone's just there to have a good time, to escape the mundane, to dance like Elaine without anyone caring. Then, there's the music itself. It's like this endless buffet of sounds and beats. You never know what you're gonna get, but somehow it all works. It's like the electronic music gods decided, "Hey, let's throw a little bit of this, a little bit of that," Yada Yada and boom! You've got a masterpiece. It's chaotic, it's beautiful, it's… well, it's life Jerry And the technology! The gear, the lights, the visuals—it's like living in the future. Who wouldn't be inspired by that?  So, yeah, electronic music culture inspires me because it's a wild, unpredictable ride, just like a day in my life. It's about finding those moments of joy and letting loose, and in the end, isn't that what we're all looking for? For More Art Van Delay check out https://soundcloud.com/djartvandelay

Professor Hanneke van Laarhoven is professor of translational medical oncology at the University of Amsterdam and head of the Department of Medical Oncology of the Amsterdam University Medical Center. She is a world-renowned specialist on gastrointestinal cancer, but her interests reach far beyond the body, including psychology, AI, philosophy and theology. She is also known for helping develop the first large-scale databases collecting tumour and blood samples, archives which hopefully will one day provide a key to unlocking the mysteries still surrounding the disease today.Van Laarhoven calls herself a “staunch advocate of interdisciplinarity”. She certainly has the credentials to back it up: she has PhDs in both Medical Oncology and Religious Studies, and has long been involved with spiritual and artistic projects. Not the most obviously related disciplines, you might say, but it has offered her a uniquely important position from which to understand the concerns of her patients, many of whom find themselves unexpectedly faced with questions of uncertainty, and, indeed, mortality.Faculty page: https://researchinformation.amsterdamumc.org/en/persons/hanneke-w-m-van-laarhovenEuropean Society for Medical Oncology page: https://www.esmo.org/about-esmo/biographies/hanneke-van-laarhovenThe Cluster F Theory Podcast is edited by Julian Mayers at Yada Yada.Subscribe on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-cluster-f-theory-podcast/id1736982916Subscribe on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5V4bBn54hiImeoyDNmTcIr?si=729367e48b0940d9Thanks for reading The Cluster F Theory Podcast!
