This week on Yap About It, we’re taking you to New York City at Christmas for a Broadway weekend that felt straight out of a movie!

We’re diving deep into our experience seeing Harry Potter and the Cursed Child on Broadway, including the once-in-a-lifetime moment of watching Tom Felton reprise his role as Draco Malfoy live on stage.

From practical effects and favorite performances to the biggest differences between the London and New York productions, we break down everything you need to know before you go.

But the magic didn’t stop at the theater doors. We’re sharing our full NYC holiday experience — surviving snowstorms, navigating Times Square chaos, hunting down the best Christmas trees, and of course, eating our way through the city.

From steak at Delmonico’s and hot butterbeer at the Harry Potter store to bagels, pizza, cocktails, and baked Alaska, this episode turns into a full-on food tour.

Plus, we’re giving you our real, hard-earned stage door tips on how to meet Tom Felton after the show — what time to go, where to stand, what not to do with your playbill, and how to actually walk away with a photo.

If you’re planning a Broadway trip, a New York Christmas getaway, or just love a little Harry Potter nostalgia with your pop culture recaps, this one’s for you.

2016 a time to be alive, it wasn’t just a year — it was a moment!

From Fetty WAP dominating every playlist to Pokémon Go turning parks into social events, this episode is a nostalgic deep dive into the pop culture chaos that defined the era.

We’re talking viral trends, dog filters, iconic music, unforgettable TV and movies, plus the fashion and makeup moments that had us in a chokehold — skinny jeans, chokers, full glam, and millennial pink everywhere.

And of course, no 2016 conversation is complete without Taylor Swift’s headline-making era, from high-profile relationships, bleachella, and dancing the night away at the Met Gala.

Love it or cringe at it, 2016 truly had to be experienced to be understood.

Happy New Year and welcome back to Yap About It!

We're back from hiatus and diving straight into the biggest pop culture moments you might’ve missed.

We break down the highly anticipated Stranger Things series finale — what worked, what didn’t, and what happened to Derek's parents??

Plus, the internet’s newest messy obsession: Ashley Tisdale, Hilary Duff, and the alleged toxic celebrity mom group.

We also hit rapid-fire celebrity updates, viral moments, and close things out with a full recap of the 83rd Golden Globe Awards — winners, snubs, memes, fashion, and chaotic behind-the-scenes energy.

Grab your popcorn and let’s Yap About It! 🍿

We’re back to finish what we started!

In Part 2 of our 2025 Pop Culture Wrapped (July-Dec), we’re breaking down the moments that owned the second half of the year — from surprise album drops and viral imposters to movie reboots, internet meltdowns, and the shows that had everyone glued to their screens.

We’re talking Justin Bieber’s surprise Swag era(s), Taylor Swift breaking the internet (again), Mr. Fantasy confusing the masses, Wicked taking over our feeds, and why 2025 officially made us feel geriatric online.

Toss in award shows, spooky season releases, and a few “are we okay??” internet moments, and you’ve got a chaotic, rundown of the moments that dominated our feeds.

Let’s Yap About It!

Buckle up, because 2025 was unhinged — in the best, wildest, and most chaotic pop-culture way possible.

In this official year-end recap (Pt. 1 Jan-June), the Yap About It crew breaks down every moment that kept our timelines spinning: the never-ending TikTok ban saga, the Blake Lively vs. Justin Baldoni feud that somehow got messier each month, award-show shockers, viral memes, iconic albums, SNL’s 50th, Coachella, Met Gala fashion, streaming’s biggest hits, and the movies and music that defined the year.

From Justin Bieber “standing on business” to K-pop Demon Hunters swallowing the culture whole, to space-tourism memes — nothing is off limits.

If it broke the internet, sparked group-chat discourse, or lived rent-free in your brain… we’re yapping about it.

In this nostalgia-packed episode, we rewind to the year 2000 — the year that gave us the first camera phone, PlayStation 2, Oops!... I Did It Again, How the Grinch Stole Christmas, Survivor, and even the very first podcast.

We deep-dive into the tech that shaped childhood, the movies and music still living rent-free in our heads, the video games that raised a generation, the celebrity couples who defined early-2000s drama, and the fashion trends we pray never return.

Plus: early internet chaos, store photoshoots, Y2K panic, bookstore midnight releases, and the millennial experience of growing up offline.

This week’s episode is serving pop-culture chaos with a side of “you’ve GOT to be kidding me.”

First up: Kevin Federline suddenly pops out of retirement with a Britney book, and yes, we’re questioning everything — the timing, the motives, and why everyone needs to leave Britney alone. (Chris Crocker, we miss you.)

Then we’re revisiting the Varsity Blues scandal because John Stamos decided to speak up, and defend Lori Loughlin.

Taylor Swift’s universe is in its mysterious era again — still friends with Blake Lively? Who knows. Meanwhile, the internet insists on reviving the Selena vs. Hailey rivalry like it’s a sport, even though literally no one asked.

The Kardashians also said “you will NOT forget about us,” with Kim’s birthday headlines, her new acting phase, Kylie dropping music, King Kylie anniversary, and that SKIMS merkin that had the entire internet whisper-screaming “Is this real?!”

Ariana Grande and Ethan Slater are sparking breakup rumors, and honestly, this Wicked timeline has become its own soap opera.

Book girlies are fed too: Reese Witherspoon and Harlan Coben teamed up for a thriller, and Nicholas Sparks joined forces with M. Night Shyamalan for a ghost-romance collab none of us had on our bingo cards.

Plus, Stranger Things is dropping a two-part holiday season AND a Netflix/theater combo finale, while Real Housewives of Beverly Hills returns with cast shake-ups and off-screen drama that is absolutely Bravo-coded.

And in this week’s “Bite of the Week,” the crew spirals into cottage pie debates, pumpkin-season cooking inspo, Insomnia Cookie cravings, and the universal betrayal of Taco Bell forgetting the sauces.

It’s sassy, it’s chaotic, it’s messy in all the right ways — let's Yap About It!
