This week, Kate is joined by the hilarious Ashley Hesseltine (comedian, founder of @brosbeingbasic, co-host of Girls Gotta Eat podcast) to talk about many things, but mostly, they keep going back to the same pressing topic: the art of trying to be a hot girl who gets attention from boys at a suburban high school. Ira Glass could never. We cover a lot of ground, from the expectations bestowed upon tall people that result in being a JV Junior, to cheerleading, to prom dates and late blooming, to a short-lived stint in a sorority as a result of a highly successful personal rebrand. We also discuss Ashley's incredible career trajectory, GGE's successful tour, her experience speaking openly about sex & dating, magical spring break trips, Instagram likes, and a myriad of other entertaining topics. Follow Ashley @ashhess and @girlsgotteatpodcast. Enjoy!

91: Be There in Five on Paper (with Grace Atwood & Becca Freeman)

This week, Kate teams up for a crossover episode with Grace Atwood and Becca Freeman from Bad On Paper (check out their episode this week too for Kate's interview). Kate starts by talking a bit about the live show, the decades podcast she's working on, and then reviews some brief observations from her days browsing the Scholastic book order form. Then all three discuss a variety of topics; i.e. working with friends, starting a podcast, getting more involved in the podcasting community, and evolving their content, followed by a discussion of Kate's pop cultural blind spot; books! Becca and Grace discuss their love for reading, their top books (high & low brow), their favorites from childhood, and what book/magazine related pop culture they're most fond of from the 90s. They also answer listener questions, like what their deep dive episodes would be about, which tropes/plotlines they love to hate when reading, their favorite podcast episodes, holy grail beauty products, etc. Be sure to check out Bad On Paper and Bad On Politics, and follow @graceatwood and @beccafreeman!

For Part II of her Lover analysis, Kate takes the concept of not hurrying to the next level and talks for another couple hours about the back half of Taylor Swift's latest and greatest album. In this episode, Kate analyzes lyrics, attempts to connect dots between songs, speculates about their origin, and peppers in personal anecdotes and experiences to back up her perspective on each song. Full disclosure, we do go into "Soon You'll Get Better," which is a song that even Kate can't listen to in passing, so if you want to skip ahead, that part starts around the one hour mark. Additionally, if you are not a fan of DBATC and False God, this may not be the program for you ;) Hope you enjoy, Happy Thanksgiving, and please pardon the length; this album has 18 songs and it turns out, you really can't hurry Lover.

This week, after a casual 3 month delay, Kate follows up on her reaction podcast to Taylor Swift's album "Lover," going more in depth on the songs, lyrics, themes, and current news involving TS. Throughout the analysis she weaves in the issues with Scott & Scooter, where she stands on TS' relationship, the Rolling Stone article, Lover Fest, etc. to get fully caught up on all things Taylor Nation. At one point she talks about American Girl dolls too because she can't help herself. Since she firmly believes that you can't hurry Lover, she is dividing this review into two parts: one episode for each half of the album, the next coming out early next week in time for a long Thanksgiving drive. Enjoy!!
