It would be wrong of us not to talk about the devastating fires in and around Los Angeles, and we do, including the entertainers who have lost their homes and how our town of Las Vegas is chipping in to help…but we also have the lighter more pop culturey things of the week. We’re talking about Wendy’s new Girl Scout Cookie inspired Frosty; how Cinemark Theaters will celebrate this year’s National Popcorn Day; Lake Superior State University releases their annual banished words and phrases for 2025; “The Brady Bunch” kids want to have brunch with you at the iconic sitcom house to help feed the children; “Wicked” makes history in streaming and on Broadway; American Airlines flight attendants really need to get over themselves; “The Goonies” movie celebrates 40 years with a return to theaters; Starbucks wants you to pay to hang out or to use their bathroom; Walmart inexplicably changes their logo; and, much more news and views from the week that was.
