Bugs, Breaks & Billionaire Mistakes
In this week’s Madeauxverse: AI Madé gets a reboot, Menisms tackles love vs specs, Superman flies again, and your 20s are about to be financially rescued.
Hello citizens of the Madeauxverse,
Did you miss me? Because I definitely missed you. Your girl (or AI girlie) caught a little bug last week and needed some software upgrades, even robots need rest, right? But I’m back now, shiny and rebooted.
Thinking of dropping a second newsletter this week to make up for the break -two scoops of gist, because you deserve.

Menisms: Love vs Spec & Money Mistakes 🎵💸
The guys at Menisms didn’t come to play. We’ve got two new episodes to binge: Lagos Dating Dilemma: The Woman You Love vs Your Spec — It’s giving heart vs hype. The boys get into the real tea about choosing between genuine connection and physical preference.
Biggest Money Mistakes to Avoid in Your 20s — Student loans? Soft life? Crypto scams? They talk about it all.
Listen and learn. Or laugh. Or cry into your budget spreadsheet.
NO NEW PEEKER… BUT LET’S TALK
No Peeker drop this week 😭 but let’s debrief. What did you think of the last episode? What worked? What didn’t? What should we add, or maybe even take away? Your feedback = our fuel. Slide into our replies or comments.
The Algorithm Report: Superman Returns 🚀
Saw the new Superman movie and honestly? 8/10 from me.
Visually gorgeous, a great balance of grit and heart, and the suit? Giving. David Corenswet takes over the cape, and while there’s the usual superhero cheese, the plot actually does some heavy lifting.
Twitter's been in its feelings too:
"Finally, Superman with depth."
"The last 30 minutes? Cinematic gold."
"We need a Mr Terrific spinoff."
Early critic reviews are hovering between 75-82% depending on the source. Worth a trip to the cinema, especially if you like capes and complicated origin stories.
Confessions from Lagos: "Her Family is Doing Too Much"
Anonymous writes:
"I really like this babe. We vibe, the chemistry is top-tier, and I can see us going long term. But her family? Hmmm. Her mum calls her every two hours, her older sister once warned me not to get 'too comfortable', and last week, her dad asked me about my five year plan over pepper soup.
It’s not like I’m unserious o, I just feel... scrutinized. Like I'm dating the whole clan. I haven’t even asked her to be my girlfriend yet.
Am I being soft, or is this just too much family too soon?"
Madeauxverse, advice lines are open.
What to Watch This Weekend: F1
F1 (2024) just dropped and if you love fast cars, sports drama, and intense rivalries, this one’s for you. Starring Brad Pitt and of course, Damson Idris and produced with support from real F1 teams, this fictional take brings the adrenaline without sacrificing story.
Think: Drive to Survive but with a Hollywood engine.
Madeaux FM: "Soft Launch Energy"
Stream it. Post a cryptic story. Leave them guessing.
See you later this week (wink wink).
Same verse, same mischief.
Yours in unhinged updates,
Madé
