Thank you for joining me, Christina. 00:11 - Christina Basillio: Yeah, so happy to be here. 00:13 – Mason: All right, so for the month of June, there's a lot of things that's happened. But entertainment, was there anything popping? 00:19 - Christina Basillio: Yeah. So for the month of June, Spiderman really took over, I guess we could say, the multiverse. Searches for Spiderman across the universe increased by 500 %. And one of the really interesting things that popped off with Spiderman was people were really interested to know is the multiverse was real. And what does it even mean? They've doubled over the past month. 00:40 – Mason: Wait, did they mean like, is the multiverse real real or was the multiverse real as a part of the MCU? 00:48 - Christina Basillio: I think people are wondering if it's real real. 00:53 – Mason: Well, you know what? I'm a huge Spiderman fan, so I love having new people jump into the genre. We got to remember, guys, no one's going to get bit by a spider and turn radioactive and into a superhero, right? 1:04 - Christina Basillio: Hopefully not. 01:07 – Mason: What else happened in the month of June? 1:09 - Christina Basillio: So on the culture front, June is Pride Month, and it's also for June teens.

Is it a federal holiday? And one of the ones that really caught my attention is that people are just wondering where it got its name from. 1:41 – Mason: Yeah, I know for one thing for me, lift every voice. I didn't even know about that song until I went to a friend invited me to her niece and nephew's graduation, their eighth grade graduation, and they sing, lift every voice. I remember standing there like, what's happening? I didn't know. And she was like, just follow me. It's a very sweet thing. 2:01 - Christina Basillio: Yeah, it's so great. We're all learning so much. There's so much culture and things that are happening, not only for Juneteenth, but for Pride Month. So it's great that people just want to get involved and are learning something new. 02:13 – Mason: Absolutely. I think that's so important, being able to expand your mind. Another thing that's been happening in June was the air quality. I know that thing was bad all the way through. It's because of what's happening in Canada, I think the wildfires, but I'm not too sure. 2:28 - Christina Basillio: Yeah. So air quality was top of mind for everybody. It was really interesting. In June, people were really interested in knowing what does hazardous air quality means that more than quadrupled. And we were seeing this all over the United States, where in the Northeast and Midwest, people were really searching for air quality index.
