Hello and welcome to this episode of Kennedy Saves the World. One of my favorite things about this time of year is looking back at the ridiculousness that we've seen throughout the year. And we just have to embrace the absurdity because we are living in. These times are so magnified and so bananas that I think that we'll have a very difficult time explaining to future generations how intermingled every aspect of life, from social media to pop culture to politics, how it was all together in one giant casserole and it was all of the insanity magnified itself. And you know, you know, every person looking from the outside in had times of absolute outrage. And sometimes you don't have to get mad at the absurdity. You can just laugh at it, poke fun at it. Always poke fun at yourself and document what you've seen to try and make sense of it in the future, which I think will be an impossibility. Do you remember when Katy Perry and Gayle King and Lauren Sanchez and the other women went into space and it was the stupidest, dumbest, most inconsequential show of fake feminism ever? And Katy Perry released, like, her track list and flower and kiss the ground when she landed, as though, you know, she were some brave astronaut warrior who had conquered the heavens and come back, like, against all odds, like some arctic ship where 90% of the sailors on board got scurvy and were eaten by polar bears. It was not really a show of bravery. And I think this was the year that that phony baloney strain of feminism took the biggest hit. And so we looked at this because it was shoved down our throats like, girl power. Aren't they amazing? And it's like, no, literally, anyone could do that. Like Stephen Hawking did that. Anyone. There was nothing remarkable about that at all. The only thing remarkable about it was all of these people figured out they could be friends with Jeff Bezos through his girlfriend. And they are just a bunch of fabulous leg humpers in silly suits that if there was a women's movement to be had, they set it back by a good eight years. And that's a very kind estimate. So that was. It's been a rough season for Katy Perry. She and Orlando Bloom split up. Her tour's not doing well. She decided to tour in the shadow of Taylor Swift and, you know, really had way more misses than hits this year. And then her big rebound after Orlando Bloom, you know, and everyone at the Jeff Bezos Lauren Sanchez wedding, everyone wanted him hooking up with Sydney Sweeney, like. Like, she's a Pawn. Like, like everyone is a madam and she's a prostitute. And they're like, I would put Sydney Sweeney with Tom Brady. I would put Sydney Sweeney with Orlando Bloom. So he just sort of romantically retreated. Katy Perry makes the oddest choice of all. You know, it's like she needed some good pr. She needed to rebuild her fractured soul after the implosion of her marriage to Russell Brand. And, you know, everything falls apart with Orlando Bloom. I'm wondering what the common denominator is there. And now she's hooking up with Justin Trudeau. She's ass grabbing with Justin Trudeau. It's like when phony feminists embrace soy boys. That's when, you know, the. That our culture is on the brink of absolute decline. And he is just. Who finds him attractive? That guy couldn't open a pickle jar if it were the last food item on planet Earth. And he was a starving shell of a soy man. So she, she has now embraced Justin Trudeau, which is so weird because, you know, it's like, I don't know where she lives. California, New York. She's got a kid, he's got kids. He's got an ex wife. He's a former prime minister of Canada. He's like a political Nepo baby. How are they going to see each other? I predict that that is an unsustainable relationship and also not that attractive. It's not the kind of relationship like, ooh, tell me more details. I bet it's spicy in the boudoir. Ah, it's not now that that is not going to last. But then, you know, we get back to Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce. They got engaged. I was not crazy about her ring. You know, I was not crazy about that Jane Austen. That whole era of, you know, the massive shield ring. I recently got engaged. I was recently given a ring that, that I did not design. And it is beautiful and I love it and I'm so glad. And it does not look like Taylor Swift's ring because I think it's weird looking. And she's trying to set a trend and I know people are going to embrace it. And ladies, if you are in the throes of engagement season, do not push your man in that direction. And guys, do not look at Taylor Swift and go, oh, yeah, that's what I got to get my whole woman. When in doubt, stay simple and stick with tradition. This should not be a new tradition. I do not like that ring. And it's interesting because she and Travis Kelce are both kind of on the decline this year. Not financially. They're doing just fine. I'm sure. Now she has a couple billion dollars in the bank. That's fine. We don't need to hear any more about her. We don't need to hear any more about the ERAS tour. Life for Showgirl, it, it wasn't a flop. I mean it sold beautifully. She is a juggernaut and there's no doubt about that. And there are some good songs on there. But it is pretty mediocre slop compared to the high standard that she has set for herself musically. The low bar that she has set for herself personally, romantically. Travis Kelce cleared that one. But he is also about to retire and what is he going to do? Be her stay at home purse holder? Because you know, it's like he's not really a great actor. He's a handsome guy. You, you know, he's an intriguing pitch man. He's totally overexposed. His team didn't make the playoffs for the first time in 11 years and his quarterback is injured. And this is not the way that Travis Kelce wanted to go out. I believe that they assumed that they were going to win the three people going to win the super bowl this past year. That didn't happen. And, and that's when they went on the roller coaster downhill. And now all he's got is his, he's got a hall of fame career. There's no. I will not take away anything from his talent as a player. He's a goofy ass dresser. He is, you know, he's, he's a bit of a meathead and he and his meathead brother have their very popular podcast and the only thing that he's got left is swifties. Listening to that podcast to hear any mention at all of his soon to be wife. Um, yes, I think that relationship that will survive for a while. Uh, I think she was in love with the idea that he was the super bowl winning quarterback that she had always had a crush on in high school because she's stuck at 16 emotionally and she always will be and that's fine. I mean it's been good for her songs. It's, it's very boring when that's all we hear from her. So that'll be fine. If they can transition into actual adulthood where, I don't know, they have an argument every once in a while that will be aces. So I see that one culminating in a marriage probably this year and good for them, then they should go be married and go away because people are going to lose interest very, very quickly this year. Don't go anywhere. More Kennedy Saves the World right after this. This is Ainsley Earhart.

So that lady could have gone away, quietly rebuilt her resume, gotten another job, but she had to come out and start yapping at the end of the year when the whole thing was completely gone, she had to dig up that stinky corpse and throw it right in her faces and, you know, give a million excuses like, we weren't having an affair, but if we did, who cares? It's none of your business. And Andy was my crush and now my life is ruined. It's like, this is something we have to get away from as a society. Like the idea that everyone is a victim, that everyone has an ax to grind, everyone has a grievance and. And they have to air it out constantly because the world has wronged them. So this is what I want for our society in 2026. This is critically important. We have to divorce ourselves from the idea of victimhood, that the world has done something to us. We have been wronged. We are the ones who have been hurt. And we want comeuppance. No, we're done with that. The new trend, the hot new trend, I am redeclaring it for 2026 is personal responsibility. Taking responsibility for your actions and your choices. It's not romantic, it can be messy, it is certainly not fun, but it is so incredibly necessary. Because when you have a society based on victimhood, you know what you're stuck with? Zoran Momdani and progressives and people like them, democratic socialists, communists, whatever you want to call them, they will never take responsibility for anything. They are living in a perpetual state of victimhood which they pin on workers. And, you know, it's like the plight of the proletariat. And government is supposed to come in and fix every problem. All big government has ever done is create more problems. That's it. So, yes, it is politics, it is pop culture. They are all in this murky mire. And the thing that is driving it is the idea that victimhood is the course that we have set ourselves upon, that it is acceptable and everyone is drowning in it. That is not the case. I am throwing you the life preserver. You. It is personal responsibility. And that means that you have to, without telegraphing, broadcasting, posting everything about your life and every emotion that you have. Instead of doing that and going, oh, look at me, poor me, you look at your own life and you go, what choices have I made? What choices went negatively? What went well? Let's do more of the stuff that went well. And take responsibility. Because when you take responsibility, you also do that for the wins, not just the areas of your life that fall short. Because oftentimes when things fall short, that's on you. But when you claim to be the victim of everything, you get to blame everyone else for your inaction, for, for your failures, for your bad choices. We're no longer doing that in 2026. That goes for Katie. That goes for Taylor. That goes to the Coldplay Kiss Cam lady. Because if she had actually taken responsibility for her actions, she would not be doing interviews about it, revictimizing her children, who didn't ask for any of this. And I think the person who set a great example for how to just kind of rise above it and, and have fun and just sort of jet ski around and around the entire year when you're not making lots of money and making people mad and lustful in equal measure, Sydney Sweeney. So let's all go have a Sydney Sweeney 2026. And trust me, if you do that, your world will be saved. This has been Kennedy Saves the World. Let's launch into 2026, baby. I'm Kennedy. Listen. Ad free.
