Pennylane Podcast

More fan stories?! Yeah! We have new longer episodes coming soon, but enjoy these embarrassing boyband moments from some close friends of the podcast!

Fan stories episodes are always super fun, because it's our chance to hear from other people and broaden the topics and "fandoms" of our podcast!Today we're hearing from Stephanie, Darcy, and MY MOM--again. They're all great stories in completely different ways.

This interlude is super questionable--or at least the LYRICS are questionable. We love the Backstreet Boys as much as the next girls, but this song is NOT OKAY! Have you ever listened to a song and just thought, "YIKES, DUDE, NO!" This is that song! Hit us up with songs that YOU think have questionable lyrics. And please don't forget to rate/review/share our podcast with your friends! We so appreciate it :)

This episode is kind of different, it's just me (Sasha), because I was home in California without Autumn. But we decided that getting this story from my mom would be cool enough. Most people don't consider Jackie Kennedy a "fandom," but I grew up with a woman who taught me it very much WAS! Maybe this was the beginning of my fandom journey?Either way, my mother's personal fandom story is pretty interesting. Give it a listen, and maybe ask your parents where they were when the president was shot? (If they were alive!)

After a crazy travel week off, we're back! And since last night we saw the Backstreet Boys live for the first time in over a decade, we figured now was as good a time as any to share our concert going experiences with you.  Enjoy and please share yours!

This FAN STORIES episode can only be titled: THE EMBARRASSMENT EPISODE. All 3 of our guests today decided to tell embarrassing stories about meeting someone they're a fan of.

Welcome back to another interview episode! We're thrilled to have Christine Penski, a dear friend of ours, on the podcast to talk about her love of SHONDALAND and all things Shonda Rhimes. This is particularly exciting for us, because it's our first episode that really has absolutely nothing to do with music! Obviously, we love music, but it's cool to branch out!

It's our first official FANDOM HISTORY episode! We were actually really stoked to talk about TRL, because it played such a huge role in our lives personally. We were in high school at the height of the craze, and let me tell you, we'll never forget running home after school to watch our favorite videos hit number 1! (Or...not, and then we'd be so mad!)Give us a listen, and hit us up if you have related memories, we wanna hear from you! [email protected]

It's almost like an interlude! Except you don't have to deal with the two of us talking about ridiculous songs--instead you get two of our recent interviewees talking about times they met people they're fans of. But, the catch is these stories couldn't include the people we interviewed them about. Fun, right? We thought so, too!  Carole Ann Wright is the first story--talking about when she met Paul Thomas Anderson. Then, Christine Penski talks about meeting Sara Barellis. Who have you met?

We're back with another interlude! This time we're talking about Hilary Duff's 2003 pop hit "So Yesterday." Full disclosure: we love this song! We just uhhh...think they can do better!
