Some Loud Opinions: Recent Episodes
Sara McLean
A guy matched on Tinder just to tell me I looked like I had some loud opinions. If I remembered his name, I’d send him a thank you card for inspiring this podcast where I share my many thoughts. Behold, my very strong and loud opinions on just about everything.
I'm back baby! I fell down a rabbit hole binge watching Gilmore Girls and I've got some opinions on Miss Lorelai Gilmore the second. She's our problematic queen but is it really her fault? Travel back to Stars Hollow with me for a review on TVs most unrealistic teen mom drama and why it's not okay to be that toxic to people.
If you like what you hear and want to see more of me and my daily opinions, follow me on instagram @the.sassy.sister where I share stories and sometimes pics of me or my dog. You can shoot me a message there about more loud opinions you want to hear or tell me how wrong I got it too.

Thanks again for listening, I love you more than Lorelai loves Rory!

Look, is this episode an unedited mess? Partially. But I still have some opinions I need to get out now that low rise jeans and Paris Hilton are making a comeback. Diet Culture has always been toxic and bad, but anytime you add an exposed torso as a fashion trend it seems to get so much worse. This episode covers the difference between self-love and body positivity, how early 2000 fashion made me hate my body, and the diet trend I wish I tried from the 70s. Hopefully by the end, you can rest easy knowing that no diets work because they are literally designed to fail so they can sell you a new one, but as a society we are slowly progressing towards a less toxic diet culture overall. I forgot to mention it but you can check me out @the.sassy.sister on Insta!

We are back in spicy town with a sultry episode about my opinions on sexting with strangers I meet on Tinder. Spoiler alert - I hate it. I share some real life experiences from the nightmare that is online dating apps and expose what a clown I can be. It's definitely not all men, but the men that want to sext strangers... please stop I beg you. This isn't an episode you wanna listen to on speakerphone but you may want a glass of wine to take the edge off the secondhand embarrassment. If you've got some opinions about this episode, the online dating world, or sexting, hit me up at @the.sassy.sister on Instagram or sarajean913@yahoo.com Thanks as always for tuning in and at least listening to some loud opinions on things I care about. I love you so much and that's a fact, not an opinion!

Did you really think you could come for my side part and skinny jeans with no consequences?! Look, I love TikTok as much as any one but I love the internet a million times more. Maybe these TikTokers who steal jokes can fool the kids, but I've been on the internet before they were a zygote. I know that meme you stole and turned into your viral video and I'm calling the content police. All jokes aside (with credit of course), stealing content is wrong and it's a growing problem on our favorite app we love to hate. The online oldies won the battle of citations against big IG Meme accounts years ago and we will do it again! My brain shut off when it came to examples so if anyone has noticed this joke stealing, let me know at: https://www.instagram.com/someloudopinions/ or https://www.instagram.com/the.sassy.sister/ or drop me an email at sarajean913@yahoo.com Thanks as always for listening and remember, you may not love my opinions but I still love you!

In episode two I do some more white on white women crime by coming for Pinterest's favorite mug maker and all things shiplap. Why are these factory made white ceramic pieces everywhere I look and heaven help us if she starts putting those gnomes on them too. Listen, you can love Rae Dunn all you want, but it's gonna be a no for me dawg. Come for the jokes, stay for a super duper light commentary on consumerism. Love this take or want to tell me how much you would die for your Sip cup? Come find me on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/someloudopinions/ https://www.instagram.com/the.sassy.sister/ Or you can email me at this temporary (at least for this show) address: sarajean913@yahoo.com Thanks for listening!

Well I don't do things in halves so we are hitting the gas full throttle on my very first episode I've got some loud opinions about racism and why we need to acknowledge it as a current day thing. If you're tired of always hearing about racism, this is an episode for you that gives a different perspective on why we need to talk about racism. Warning: I use curse words because I'm allowed to and I want to. Be on the look out for some loud opinions on cursing in the future!

If you are ready for some more resources about confronting racism and/or at least acknowledging it, here ya go. As promised, these are broken up by level 1-3 so you can start growing where you are at. We all have room to grow and we are all starting at different places. SO breathe in, and check these out at your own pace. Level One: Listen to "Behind the Bastards" and "You're Wrong About" podcast episodes. There are too many to list but I suggest starting with ones about The Black Panthers :) Follow George Lee at https://www.instagram.com/theconsciouslee/ and check him out on TikTok too!
