Ripping off the Band - Aid: Recent Episodes
Paige Butler
Rip off the Bandaid dives into Disney stories and how they changed our childhood and are reflected in our lives today. We are looking deep into if these stories had a different impact on our lives. Did Ariel's controlling parents change how we were raised and rebelled? Did Tiana's work ethic reflect in us; do we work harder because she did. Did Jasmine's repression of power and forced marriage change how young females viewed their future. This podcast looks at each of these ideas and reflects on the life of college students may be changed because of what we were always told growing up.
This episode Paige and Christa talk about how Ariel's dad influences her decisions to rebel, the different parent types, and how parenting may change based on each child. Come listen to our perspectives on different parent types.
Five Springfield College students, Christa Carr, Paige Butler, Lauren Bednarczyk, Hiyuma Nagai, Terrel Jacobs-Baston, dive into the aspects of Disney Movies and fairytales that are not how they seem. What did we learn from being exposed to these tales growing up? That if you are good and work hard, you can get what you want, or if you are pretty or handsome enough, you will live happily ever after. I don't think so. We learned something without even realizing it and they may not be the best lessons.
