About this episode
- Fran, Rose & comedian Honey Pluton were all suburban kids who came of age at The Mall. This episode is an elegy to quintessential Mall activities like binging at the food court, shoplifting, getting hit on by an older man in the occult section of the Borders bookstore, sneaking into Judd Apatow movies and pining for an upper-middle-class birthday party at Build-a-Bear or Club Libby Lu.
- Plus, Fran's full report from the lesbian commune that was Joni Mitchell Live and Rose's takes on The Boogeyman and The Idol
- On Patreon this week, Fran & Rose did an Ultimatum debrief with Producer Phoebe. Subscribe to listen.
