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.

We're having a live show in New York June 26th! Get tickets here. And shop our new summer merch line. What were you obsessed with doing at The Mall? Tag our finsta @likeavirgin42069

A new pop culture podcast with a mix of news, cultural criticism, and comedy through a queer-trans lens, hosted by Fran Tirado and Rose Dommu.
Though they are best friends now, Fran and Rose grew up very differently. Fran was a cult-ish, sheltered Christian camp counselor and Rose had a penchant for writing deranged fanfiction. Now they’re both godless heathens taking a look back at the formative classics that popped their cherries and made them who they are.
Each week, the show starts off with a breakdown of the week’s pop culture news, then does a deep dive into one cultural object that one of them might be experiencing for the first time. They’ll also invite writers, comedians, activists, and entertainers to help them break it down.
