Note sull'episodio

CLASH: THE CHANGING NOTION OF WHAT IT MEANS TO BE AN "AMERICAN". Today we dissect what the heck being an "American" even means — starting allll the way back at pre-pubescence. From Dani's early days idolizing various aspects of American culture with one foot in and one foot out, to Gabby's lame a** midwestern ignorance, we chat about our evolving perceptions, and embodiments, of "Americanness". What kinds of clashes did key cultural events, crises, and international immigrations spark? And how did moving to Paris turn us into unsolicited ambassadors of a country we barely understand ourselves? Don't worry - we absolutely spend half the podcast discussing Bad Bunny.
