About this episode
The girlies talk stan culture and come for all your faves. From the Directioners of the mid-2010s to Nicki Minaj's digital paramilitary, fandom has pushed the bounds of internet friendship, devotion, and doxxing. Digressions include a brief review of Jennette McCurdy's memoir, why Eliza would be a great candidate for a gambling addiction, and the question...does anyone still wear their retainer?
