Send us Fan Mail Patrick Bateman isn’t your average young and wealthy New York investment banker in the 80s. He’s so much more than that. He cares about slowing down the nuclear arms race, stopping terrorism and world hunger, providing food and shelter for the homeless, opposing racial discrimination, promoting civil rights, while at the same time, promoting equal rights for women and most importantly promoting general social concern and less materialism in young people. Oh, and that’s not all. ...
Send us Fan Mail Do you have questionable morals or malleable convictions? Are you willing to give up your dignity and set aside empathy and sympathy towards others in need?

Send us Fan Mail Andy Sachs is not like other girls and she’s most certainly not like the girls who work themselves to the bone in the cut throat yet glamorous world of fashion. At least not yet. Join Katie and Grace (and our special guest Ally) as we done our cerulean sweaters and attempt to claw our way to the top of the Runway food chain.

Well, just know that it can and Bridget Jones knows that better than most.

Not to mention she’s over 30. Join Grace and Katie as we break out the ole journal and track our journ...
Send us Fan Mail We interrupt our regularly scheduled program to bring you this important message. *SPOILERS AHEAD* The 80s cult classic Road House , starring the incomparable Patrick Swayze has been brought back to life.
