The buzzwords, every show

What the tape talks about across 44 shows: every name said in every transcript, counted by year, 2010 to 2026. The line on a card is the share of that year's mentions, per ten thousand, so a network that doubled its tape does not read as every topic doubling. Rising and fading compare 2025 with 2026 for names said at least 40 times across at least 3 episodes in one of the two.

Counted from every scene of every transcript by the mention run (Gemini reads the tape, one record per name per scene). Talking to someone in the room is not a mention of them. Subsidiaries stay under their parent on the entity pages but count for themselves here. Tap a name for its page across every show, with the mentions by year and the scenes.
