Description

Introducing our “sidebar” conversations, a cheeky reference to the fact that we’re both lawyers and love to have conversations incidental to our main topics and episodes. We’re letting you in on our typical offline conversations about whatever we’re obsessing over in pop culture. And today we are talking about one of our favorite, wonderfully complicated, multi-talented, all around badass women...Jennifer Lopez! Why? Bennifer 2.0 of course. They're back on “the block” 17 years later and we're discussing why we’re still invested in this white-hot couple and what we both love about JLo herself. Of course we play a little armchair psychologist, wondering whether this time around will be different. Regardless, JLo always has our hearts!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In Pop Fiction Women we deep-dive into the complicated women of books, movies and TV shows, along with the women that bring them to life behind the scenes. Think Fleabag and Phoebe Waller Bridge, Normal People and Sally Rooney, and so much more. In each episode you can expect us to: * Break down the protagonist as we ask what makes her complicated? * Identify the best scenes, which can mean sweetest, funniest, or most badass. Anything we love. * Recount the cringiest scenes. The ones that make you squirm. Sometimes it’s self-sabotage, sometimes it’s growth, but it’s always part of the process of becoming our complicated selves. * Play arm-chair therapist in What’s Your Damage, Heather? An homage to the iconic line in Winona Rider’s Heathers, we discuss how these characters got to be the way they are. * “What She Said” - the segment where we scour every essay and interview with the women behind the scenes and share some of our favorite first person quotes. Real life is as interesting as fiction here. * Look into our crystal ball and ponder where these characters are six months later and five years later. Typically, Kate gets very real and Carinn gets buck wild. * Provide a takeaway, aka that part in the podcast where we try to sound deep. We leave you with some parting wisdom, challenge each other with thought-provoking questions inspired by the work, and urge you to “stay complicated.”
