This week, Sami, Jordana, and Aleen are back to talk about the most impactful pop culture, technology, and media changes they experienced in their early years. They start off talking about just how different communication was back in college with Blackberries and BBM pings, and how annoying it was to not be able to turn off read receipts. They also discuss how complicated it was to invite people to parties back then, and how they would deal with the clean up afterwards by invoking the famed “Threshold Rule.” Next, they talk about a few apps that completely changed the way they interacted with their phones and each other, including Instagram, Venmo, and Spotify. They also talk about the advent of streaming services and remember the first shows that made them get a Netflix subscription. After that, they get into a listener email about the world’s obsession with the Royal Family and whether it’s really worth our attention. Is the British obsession with them the same as the American obsession with the Kardashians? To end the show, they play a round of Succession Trivia, where they put their knowledge to the test about some lesser known behind-the-scenes facts about the show and the people involved in it.
