Our guest, the brilliantly funny, multi-talented Gwen Carole picked the 2004 comedy “Mean Girls,” written by Tina Fey, starring so many talented people, including of course Lindsay Lohan and Rachel McAdams, and also Tina Fey herself. Gwen and Devin met we-can’t-remember-how-many-years ago on a horror-comedy short film, and have stayed connected since! We discuss the successes and failings of the film, its impact on comedy and feminism, and our own past teen angst. This week’s women in film history are the women of SNL and the incomparable trailblazing comedian Moms Maybley. You might recognize Gwen from her TikTok brilliant videos of “ancient dancer dances to/acts out [insert film/TV dance moment here]” - if you haven’t seen them, treat yourself to her social media on TikTok @gwencarole or on Instagram of @gwendolynstagram right now. Seriously, go check out her videos! You’re already on your phone!
