Perry Goeders is featured on this week's episode of Nicstalgia. We talk about the inspiration behind her TikTok series, if department stores had a reality show. Who can forget the sensory experience that is going to the mall? Hot Topic is literally a time machine to 2005, wouldn’t you agree? We describe the difference between emo kids and scene kids; is it just a ‘you had to be there’ kinda thing?? From being forced to fit into boxes to cosplaying different aesthetics, teenagers have always looked for an outlet to find out who they are and create an identity for themselves. We also dive into the legacy, personal brand, and impact of Britney Spears. As MTV’s Diary said, “You think you know, but you have no idea.”
