Be There in Five episodes

March 05, 2021 Trauma-rama
This week, Kate salutes one of the most iconic magazine series of our time: Seventeen's Trauma-rama. First she discusses Meghan & Harry's upcoming interview, then does a brief Are You Afraid of the Dark detour, followed by reading from old Seventeen & YM magazines she bought off of eBay from their juiciest embarrassing stories sections. Following that, she reads crowd-sourced 'things that are embarrassing for no reason' anecdotes from listeners and discusses the discomfort of, well, just generally existing. Enjoy!

February 25, 2021 Twinkle, Twinkle, S0cc3rA11Star
This week, Kate does a continuation of last week's episode (Pussycat Dull) since more listeners submitted their tales of cringeworthy attempts to make their crush jealous. They somehow keep getting better. In between stories many of Kate's own anecdotes and insights are shared, from her being cast as a Valley Girl to a broader discussion of sexism in how women are judged for the way they speak. There's also discussions of things like the 00s 'mean girl' culture, a revisiting of Why Men Love Bitches, an argument for not striving for effortlessness, and an update on Childless Millennial, to name a few. Enjoy!

February 19, 2021 Pussycat Dull
This week, Kate reads from listener-submitted stories about the embarrassing (and now hilarious) ways in our youth that we tried to make people jealous and/or acutely aware of how well we're doing following a romantic rejection. From the classic "sorry wrong IM" all the way to a full John Tucker Must Die reenactment, these stories represent the good, the bad, and the delightfully cringy of Livin La Vida Four Loko in the mid-2000s. But first, Kate discusses some broader thoughts on mid-aughts media & pop culture and how it influenced her 'hot girl' days, then her sister Kelly joins her to discuss her participation in an MLM, Valentine's stories, myspace, and more; followed by the two peppering in their bad dating stories as they listen through listeners' quests to go from dull to Pussycat Doll in peak "Don't Cha" culture.

February 11, 2021 Coming Up For Erin (with Erin Heatherton)
TW: Mention of EDs, body image discussion

This week, Kate has a conversation with Erin Heatherton, a former Victoria's Secret Angel and Sports Illustrated model (among other things) who now lives in Chicago after having stepped back from the spotlight. She's now crushing it as an entrepreneur and somehow befriended Kate along the way, so they recorded a heart to heart about not only Erin's life and career but also about body image, problematic beauty standards, doing Ayahuasca, being in VS shows, dealing with depression, getting back to her roots, and so much more.

January 29, 2021 Look Who's Tokking Now
It's been one year since Kate begged her listeners to start talking the 'Tok, and on this episode, Kate follows up on her original TikTok deep dive to update everyone on what's happened in the past year. She broadly discusses the big trends, cringy dance moves, obscure subcultures, roller coaster legislation, favorite follows, etc., but also dives into specifics about some of the app's biggest stars. She discusses the trajectory of the D'Amelios, Addison Rae, The Hype House, Sway House, and even does an accidental (and kinda successful?) deep dive into Bella Poarch's mysterious background, among other things. Enjoy!

January 22, 2021 149. Hun For The Money (MLM & Insta Coaching Deep Dive)
This week, Kate takes on the Venn diagram of Instagram "life coaches," self-help gurus, manifesting babes, and multi-level marketing #girlbosses that peddle the (often) false hope of financial freedom and entrepreneurial dreams through uncomfortable emoji-laden texts and Facebook messages. She discusses the problem with influencers selling one-size-fits-all solutions based on their anecdotal business experience and then reads crowd sourced stories from listeners who have been on the receiving end of MLM and entrenprenHERial outreach. Enjoy!
