About this episode

The animated coming of age film Turning Red tackles periods, adolescence, crushes, fangirls, boy bands, mother-daughter relationships, immigration, and the power of friendships. Because of some of these themes, it garnered a lot of controversy. We chat about all of these things and our own similar experiences as teenagers.
