Description

When it comes to The Baby-Sitters Club and SSR, too much of a good thing is never enough… so it’s lucky for you that Episode 94 is yet another Super Special installment, New York, New York! In this book — the sixth BSC Super Special — the crew has a big apple adventure for their spring break, during which each baby-sitter finds her own NYC story. Some are much more interesting than others, but on this episode, Alli and her guest Megan Angelo discuss each of them, along with their memories of reading the BSC series out of order as tweens, their thoughts on the weird dynamics between adult men and the baby-sitters, the subtle nods to race and masculinity in Jessi’s storyline, and so much more. They also consider a very controversial question: is it possible that Mary Anne and Stacey are, in fact, very bad baby-sitters? Find out!Megan Angelo has written about TV, film, women and pop culture, and motherhood for publications including The New York Times, Glamour, Elle, The Wall Street Journal, Marie Claire, and Slate. Followers is her first novel. Follow Megan on Instagram (@meganangelo) and Twitter (@meganangelo).

Each week, freelance writer and lifelong bookworm Alli Hoff Kosik will challenge a guest to reread a literary throwback or to experience for the first time ever a book they may have missed as a kid. After that, they'll be asked to spill all the feels and all the opinions about that book on the air for your podcast-listening pleasure. Every Tuesday, you can find us breaking down an old school read from our tween and teen days on a new episode of the show. We'll cover everything from The Baby-Sitters Club to Holes, Nancy Drew to Harry Potter. This time around, we're a little wiser (yay!), a lot older (ugh.), and of legal age to drink wine... so we'll have a lot to say. Happy Reading!
