In this episode of Culture Shook, Marshall and Sabrina discuss some of the fashion trends that helped make Y2K such an exciting, hot mess. The hosts have a love/hate relationship when it comes to the statement pieces the decade had to offer and they think most will agree that the early 2000s had a very maximalist attitude.

In this episode of Culture Shook, Marshall and Sabrina explore the evolution of selfie culture. They reminisce about their earliest selfie memories which predate the iPhone and even digital cameras!

In this episode of Culture Shook, Marshall and Sabrina remember the fierce hold that American Apparel had on them in high school. The iconic hoodies and provocative marketing made American Apparel the hottest fashion ‘it girl’ of the early 2000s but her glory days were tragically short lived. The hosts agree that founder Dov Charney is problematic AF but the impact of the brand lingers despite its controversial downfall. Marshall and Sabrina think it's about time for an indie sleaze revival but right now, it's online only.
