Pam came to the taping with less than one hour to spare before she had to leave to see a movie, so we had NO time to waste getting through this episode's many pop culture topics. Perry Farrell cutting a bathroom line! How much of The Godfather Part III we've seen and/or is worth seeing! Neill's latest crappy review! Who The Replacements are and also who they are not! HURRY UP AND LISTEN, PAM'S GOTTA GO

🔥 Extra Hot Great 561, about The Four Seasons

Sassy launched with the March 1988 issue and here we are in 1991, watching our friend turn 3! And if we were reading the issue in order, this would probably be a cool, fun party, but since we're starting with the Teen Life topics...the first feature is about a rape on campus at the University of Rhode Island that, spoiler, did not have a happy ending for the survivor. After that piece, things lighten up: Jessica revisits her old job as a substitute teacher. Christina collects a (somewhat questionable) list of decent men (and the fact that one of them is fictional and six of them are dead kind of says it all). Two of your co-hosts are divided on the quality of this month's fiction piece, "Train Date," while the third mainly just wants to keep playing a clip advertising a mail-order train set. Guess who? The answer won't surprise you! Body Talk divides a household. Body hair is a confusing Help topic. What He Said star Pauly Shore is somehow still a going concern in our day. And to the Jeannes in our listenership: sorryyyyyyyy. All this and even more awaits you!

The February 1991 quiz -- How Good Are You In A Pinch? -- has us all doing a little introspection and a lot of complaining about the "d" options that aren't available. (As for Pam's husband Jason's score...well, listen and find out.) Then we're playing some of your latest calls on such topics as at-home highlight kits, turning into the Target lady upon injury, how much we miss catalogs and pleasant department store bathrooms -- and, of course, dinks. At least some of this will make sense when you listen. So you should!

Pam is still out on assignment, so it's just Dave and Tara this week to talk about all the style contained in the February 1991 issue. Dress in florals, or straight out of a mall store! Dye your hair, for a while or forever! Annoy everyone you know by going overboard with a heart motif! DON'T buy the sketchy products advertised at the back of the issue -- let Karen tell you precisely why! And above all, when you're applying mascara, OPEN YOUR MOUTH. All of this and much much more awaits you in our latest episode!

Our very special guest Daniel Blau Rogge is back for another episode that really runs the gamut: from Evan Dando to Roky Erickson; from Edward Scissorhands to Hannibal Lecter; to a punk skateboarder who couldn't return a damn phone call; and to a dance lesson conveyed through printed words and still photographs, which is how we had to learn things before online video came along to improve our lives (...sometimes). Fry yourself up some spam and listen!

Pam is out on assignment, so we lined up a wonderful substitute third chair who was, in fact, also a teenager in the 90s: Daniel Blau Rogge! This turns out to be a surprisingly male-skewing collection of articles: Catherine tries hunting, Kim reports on girls who gave their guys aesthetic or personality makeovers, and Christina tries to understand what "Saddamums" (yes, really) has done to bring Operation Desert Storm down on his head, not knowing that this war basically won't outlast the month of February 1991. There's also some humdingers in Help and Help For Him; a probably authentic (read: dull) scoliosis tale in It Happened To Me, and a What He Said featuring a couple of cuties from a new show you may have heard of called Beverly Hills, 90210. Grab your garlic pills AND a breath mint and hang out!

We skipped a Slumber Party for the December 1990 issue, so this time we've got two quizzes to take. How wasteful are we, and how high is our self-esteem? Find out who landed in the happy middle, and who ended up in the freak extremes. Then we move on to playing your calls on topics ranging from who got scammed by the How To Get The Guy You Want system, which early 90s movies have a surprising link, and which mascot should rightly represent Pam and her adventures in doxxing. Get a nice big breath of fresh air (not you, Pittsburgh) and join us!

To kick off the new year, Sassy wants you to wear pastels, catalog fashions, jean jackets, white t-shirts, and an alice band you made yourself. It also wants you to shave your legs, fix your skin, and buy the right bra. If you're in L.A.? You're doing everything right. As for the Etc., we've got a sneaky claim about mono (but whose?), a whole new computer program to design the magazine in (so many fonts!), and a staff retreat that is something Jane Pratt should put on as a Sassy fantasy camp TODAY. Put on your shorteralls: your latest episode is here!

How many offspring can cockroaches produce? Why should you keep sending postcards? Why were weird hats having a moment in 1991? Believe it or not, these are all questions that get explored in our January 1991 POP CULTURE episode -- but we do cover more expected topics -- shocking omissions from Karen's reviews of Mermaids and Listen Without Prejudice; not-so-shocking half-assery from Neill in his INXS album review; a One To Watch who wasn't; and much more. Put on YOUR dumbest hat and listen in!
