This week I’m joined by Michelle Cyca to talk about the trailer for the Mean Girls reboot. You might think: wow, that’s a very small thing to focus on, what could you possibly talk about for 45 minutes… but just you wait. WHY are they hiding that it’s a musical? WHO do they think is the actual audience for this movie? What happens when millennial content is rebooted for Gen-Z audiences without context? And why is Tina Fey apparently uncancellable? We cover it all.
Show Notes:
We’re currently looking for your questions for future episodes about:
SITTING. Is it that bad? How do you feel about how much you sit? Do you do anything to sit more or less?
The cultural force that is/was Contemporary Christian Music
Moms for Liberty
The appeal of the ACOTAR series
Goodreads (what has made it so bad, a particular trend you’ve observed, should you go to Storygraph, you can take this anywhere you want)
Very Contemporary Architecture Trends (like ‘modern farmhouse’) and/or wtf is going on with Chip & Joanna Gaines these days, why is their new show so banal
Whatever Bradley Cooper’s deal is
You can submit them (and ideas for future eps) here (and here’s the subscriber-only priority form)
Would love to hear your thoughts on the Mean Girls trailer (and the movie if you see it) — come join us in the comments!
