Full Episode
Good morning, Brew Daily Show. I'm Neil Freiman. And I'm Toby Howell. Today, Doge comes to Washington as Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy kick off their cost-cutting project.
Then why Guinness is suddenly the hottest drink in America this holiday season. It's Friday, December 6th. Let's ride. Let's ride.
Thank you. Thank you. Here is the top 10. First is Kamala, as in Kamala Harris. Then there's Keoghan, as in Barry Keoghan.
as in the freaky guy from Saltburn, as in Sabrina Carpenter's now ex-boyfriend. Then there's Koi Kerhunche, which is a Dutch breed of dog that Shohei Otani owns, so people are looking that up. Buttigieg, as in Pete Buttigieg. Cheyenne, the fast fashion company. Then Speck You Lost 3B, a new exoplanet that was discovered this year. There's Frigie, which was the Olympics mascot.
Semiglutide, as in Ozempic, as in Nova Nordis. Zendaya and Chapel Roan.
I think I went 10 for 10 there. Well, you did practice, but you did when, you know, when the spotlight shone on you, you executed well. So that was the U.S. list. In the U.K., the top word that people mispronounced was espresso, Sabrina Carpenter's song. And I guess the most common mispronunciation there was expresso.
It's actually a very nice snapshot of the year in news, news, politics, science. If you go down the list, it does show what people were talking about. So I like this.
Talking about wrongly.
Yeah, talking about wrongly. Let's revisit this in 2025. Now a word from our sponsor, Yahoo Finance. Neil, was it a fast week or a slow week for you this week? Slow week for sure. Coming back from a break is always tough. Agreed, a slow week for me too, but fast week when it comes to the market once again. That is something I found. The market waits for no man.
