Do Hot Girls Read?

Most book lovers have probably heard the phrase "Hot Girls Read"—but what happens when someone manages to trademark a culture that’s been around since 2009? In this episode, we dive into the wild story of Allie Rose Co., who "successfully" trademarked a phrase that many considered a community motto.

We explore the surprising ways small businesses were targeted, the hypocrisy of some claims, and what this saga reveals about brand ownership and community culture.
