For our third episode of the season we go down the rabbit hole analyzing fandoms and parasocial relationships. If you're not familiar with that term, we shall explain! We discuss the good and bad of this more modern internet phenomenon and can't help but bring up the craze around seemingly everyone's parasocial "situationship" - Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce. Our Three Things discussion touches on the Britney Spears memoir release, but we recorded before the book came out, so I'm sure we will have more thoughts on that next week. Stay tuned...
Britt's Three Things:
1) Britney Spears upcoming memoir and why Justin Timberlake is shitting himself.
2) Local Bookstore Love and some fun book store facts from Book Riot (no, I don't mean that ironically).
3) Britt just can not with this turn in the culture wars.
Veronica's Three Things
1) Period cramp simulator. Somedays period relief products.
2) Have we gone overboard with beekeeping? From the New York Times.
3) Biggest Little Farm documentary film.
