One of the most memorable moments for the speakers was attending a Sigur Rós concert, which left a deep emotional impact. The band's unique sound and the overall experience of the concert were described as profoundly moving, with one speaker even reflecting on how music and art make life worth living.
The most heartbreak and anger-inducing moment for the speakers was the result of the 2024 U.S. presidential election, where Donald Trump won. This outcome was particularly shocking and disappointing for the speakers, who had not anticipated it and felt it reflected a broader societal issue.
The speakers found the movie 'Babygirl' to be the most overrated of 2024. Despite its high expectations and the involvement of well-known actors like Nicole Kidman, the film was criticized for its lackluster plot and uninteresting portrayal of kink and power dynamics, ultimately leaving the speakers unimpressed.
In 2024, the speakers reflected on their complex relationships with work. One speaker expressed feelings of being consumed by work, losing a sense of self, while another contemplated whether to stay in the game to try to change the rules or to exit altogether. The struggle between personal values and professional demands was a recurring theme in their discussions.
One of the favorite songs of 2024 for the speakers was 'Good Luck, Babe!' by Chappell Roan. The song, which deals with themes of unrequited love and societal expectations, resonated with the speakers for its catchy melody and emotional depth. Another favorite was 'My Shot' from the musical 'Hamilton,' which inspired one speaker with its message of seizing opportunities.
One of the proudest moments of 2024 for a speaker was standing up to a 'Karen' at a tennis court who tried to stop them from playing Pico Ball. Despite typically avoiding confrontation, the speaker felt empowered to defend their right to use the space, marking a significant personal achievement in asserting themselves.
The speakers ranked the cast of 'Goodbye Lover' from least to most favorite, with Liu Shuang and Yang Zi being the least liked among the male cast, and Mai Mai being the most liked among the female cast. A memorable moment from the show was when Mai Mai comforted Huang Shengyi while also crying herself, showing her deep empathy and emotional strength.
