We gotta discuss Olivia Rodrigo and her new album, Sour. THIS is a celebration of teenage girlhood. How have young women been exploited by the entertainment industry and how has Olivia addressed that head-on? WHY is Sour both modern and nostalgic/accessible to everyone from teenagers to older millennials? WHO is she writing her songs about and does it matter?

We're discussing THAT Meghan Markle, Prince Harry Oprah interview with a focus on women's mental health. Why are people so unsympathetic to women in the spotlight? Why 'Megxit', e.g: why do people assume that vulnerable women are actually manipulative and conniving? WHY do people vilify natural human emotion?

Another Gilmore Girls episode!

In our teen dramas episode, we discuss how they can either be so bad to the point that they are funny or how actually useful they are for young adults and how they're sometimes shat on just a little too much. It's about finding that happy middle.
