About this listen

Welcome to Trends Daily—holiday retrospective week. Team is on holiday, prescheduled episode. Back live Monday, December 29th. TOP SEARCHES OF 2019: Global #1: India vs South Africa cricket. US #1: Disney Plus—streaming wars began, password economy born. Top People: Cameron Boyce (tragic death at 20), Nipsey Hussle (murdered in LA), Luke Perry (Gen X icon), Antonio Brown (NFL chaos). Top News: Notre-Dame fire (800 years, gone in hours), Hurricane Dorian (Cat 5), Hong Kong protests (millions marching for autonomy). Top Entertainment: Avengers Endgame ($2.8B), Game of Thrones finale (united in disappointment), Joker (stairs dance mood). Top Music: Old Town Road by Lil Nas X—country-rap broke Billboard records. Genre gatekeepers lost. The people won. The Pattern: 2019 was about heroes—Marvel on screens, first responders in disasters, Greta yelling at world leaders. Streaming wars launched. Social media became how we argued about everything. Created by Adam J Carswell. Connect on LinkedIn.
