This week, Kate starts with some classic BTIF tangents, namely the 8 Passengers/Ruby Franke/Jodi Hildebrandt arrests and their "mental health" organization/cult, then interviews two podcast listeners about topics of their choice. First, Shea opens up about her experience getting back an NPE (not parent expected) result from an Ancestry DNA kit and her search for the truth of her identity ever since. Then, she talks with Emily to dissect the 2000s "Twee" aesthetic in all its ModCloth manic-pixie glory. Enjoy!
