To close out this fourth of July weekend we are talking all things American Girls, as in the doll franchise that ruled the 2000's preteen toy scene.

So, let's take a look back at the OG's and which ones had the biggest impact for us, because while they were fun toys, they carried themes more ma...

Heyyyyy it’s Serena and I had to write an undergraduate thesis in order to graduate and I didn’t want to force my family to read my paper (but I kinda did) so we thought we could use the podcast as a way for me to present my thesis to them! It’s about the impacts an eruption of Yellowstone’s “super-volcano” would have specifically in New England because I went to school in New Hampshire (I graduated hehe) and recent models have shown New England would be covered in ash! Woohoo, we are relevant. ...
