Popular culture

TV shows, movies, and podcasts are trending topics right now. Take a moment to chat about what people are watching recently to stay up to date with the latest trends. If you don't know something, ask your partner when you get home, such as:

1. What movie or show are you watching lately?
2. I've been listening to this new podcast about crime. Has anyone heard it yet?

Strange stories on the Internet

What's the weirdest thing you've ever seen online? Maybe the elephants at the local zoo befriended a flock of seagulls that flew by. Maybe you've found a new celebrity Instagram account where they post crazy videos. Tell your friends about what you see online to spark an interesting or funny conversation. You can say:

1. Has anyone seen the video of the baby otter holding the mother's hand?
2. I found the funniest video of Justin Bieber dancing on TikTok!

Good books

If you've read a good book recently, share your thoughts on it with friends who share your interests. You can talk about a novel, an autobiography, even a favorite book. Ask the other person if they like the author or book as much as you do to spark conversation. You can ask:

1. Have any of you read Stephen King's new book? I heard it's very scary.
2. I just finished reading The Hobbit and found the movie not as good as the content in the book! How do you think?

New recipes

Making the stomachs of the whole group boil by sharing favorite recipes is a good idea for a group discussion. Exchange stories about what you've made for the freshest and most delicious dinner or roast. Chat about how to pick up a new recipe or any website you've found delicious to try, such as:

1. I baked the most amazing cake yesterday. The recipe is super easy too!

Travel experience

Ask people about the scariest place ever. You can learn more about other statues, cities, even countries. Don't be afraid to share some of your travel experiences too!

You can suggest the following story:

1. Where in the world are you most shocked about their culture?
2. Or which country do you think has the best food?
