Listen Later

Welcome to The Wrong Kind of Nostalgia, this episode dives into the problematic issues surrounding the popular John Hughes 80s film Sixteen Candles. We explore these issues through the characters and their storylines from the film. In an effort to remind people that this film is more than just a nostalgic teen film from the past. The film covers their problematic moments such as sexual assault with "comedy" and even insensitive portrayals of their POC characters.
