Episode notes
This week, we dig into our obsessions. We talk fandoms (19:49), how crushes (33:38) melt our little brains (especially Billie Eilish and Julian Casablancas), and the double-edged sword of nostalgia (43:27). We do dip into some heavy topics, including diet culture, skinnyTok, disordered eating, and body dysmorphia (46:23 - 1:01:20). Then, we come out the other side to talk about our sillier obsessions (1:01:20) like Hamish and Andy, SNL, and reality TV, and end with a little yarn about our current obsessions, including the Last of Us (60:10:01) and party 4 u edits (61:15:01) on TikTok.
