Movie of the Year: Best of the Year 2025Century of the YearA 2025 Year in Review in Real Time

Every year tells a story — but rarely this fast.

In this special episode of Movie of the Year, the panel presents 2025 – Century of the Year, a bold and chaotic 2025 year in review that attempts something simple, ambitious, and wildly entertaining: 100 of the biggest moments of the year, discussed in just 100 minutes.

This isn’t a countdown.

It isn’t a competition.

It’s a real-time replay of the year as it unfolded.

If you’re looking for a 2025 year-in-review podcast that values memory over rankings and chaos over consensus, this episode delivers.

What This 2025 Year in Review Covers

Across 100 minutes, the episode touches on a wide range of moments that defined the year, including:

1. major film releases and pop-culture events
2. TV moments that dominated conversation
3. internet and media chaos
4. stories that felt huge in the moment
5. robot chickens

The goal isn’t to judge what mattered most — it’s to remember what actually happened, when it happened.

The Format: 100 Moments, 100 Minutes

Unlike traditional year-end lists, Century of the Year moves chronologically, creating a true 2025 year in review rather than a retrospective ranking.

Each moment gets:

1. one minute
2. one burst of conversation
3. One chance to capture why it mattered then

January flows into February, February into March, and suddenly the year is racing by. The format mirrors how 2025 actually felt: relentless, noisy, and impossible to fully process in real time.

Who’s on the Mic

To keep pace with the format, Movie of the Year brings together a full PopFilter lineup:

1. Greg
2. Mike
3. Ryan
4. Cassie, host of The Superhero Show Show
5. Katelynn
6. Mackenna

With six voices rotating through the moments, the episode becomes a rolling conversation — jokes collide with reflection, and no one has time to overthink. The result is a loose, funny, and surprisingly emotional 2025 year-in-review podcast.

Why Century of the Year Is a 2025 Year in Review Unlike Any Other

There are no winners.

No awards.

No arguments to settle.

Instead, this episode leans into playful chaos. One minute forces instinct. Tangents get cut short. Opinions are stated boldly and sometimes abandoned just as quickly. That’s not a flaw — it’s the design.

This 2025 year in review captures how memory actually works: incomplete, emotional, and shaped by timing as much as importance.

A Chronological Time Capsule of 2025

Traditional year-end content flattens time.

This episode restores it.

By moving forward instead of counting down, 2025 – Century of the Year shows how early-year moments echo later ones, how narratives evolve, and how the year’s meaning changes as it unfolds.

By the final minute, listeners have effectively lived through the year again — a full 2025 year in review preserved as a time capsule rather than a verdict.
