The Colin McEnroe Show It's a vibe! A look at what makes a vibe a vibe
You must have heard the term “vibe” by now, right?
We’ve heard about the vibe of the election, the vibe of the economy, the vibe of a music playlist, the vibe of a season, the vibe of a party … Plus there are vibe shifts and vibe checks.
This hour: vibes. We learn what the word really means, where it comes from, and how the internet has given it new life.
