Episode description

No-one can seem to stop saying the word 'vibe' in 2022. In fact, there are a bunch of words, 'mood', 'energy', and 'blessed' just to name a few, that have us sounding like we got lost on the way back from Woodstock. It's not just us either, it's makeup brands, pop songs, and your bank — everyone from Ariana Grande to Aldi. So why, after a 50 or so year hiatus, is this pseudo-mystical vocabulary back with such a vengeance? What woke the hippie lexicon?

Schmeitgeist is a weekly pop culture podcast from ABC Everyday about why we love what we love, hosted by Ange Lavoipierre.
