The Sumber Party Pod presents Fangirl February!
This is a very ramble-y episode to begin our first themed month...Lizzie and Hannah dive into their past (and present) experiences as professional fangirls, as well as surveying many of our close friends and listeners to learn more about this ubiquitous phenomenon. Diversions (and there are tons) include: One Direction is bigger than The Beatles, the ethics of child stardom, and how Hannah accidentally went method and became a K-Pop stan (stream Ay-Yo by NCT 127 for clear skin).
Stay tuned for 3 more episodes about fangirls and how they hold the world on their shoulders :)
