I’ve been working on this [sort of] tell-all about being in a sorority off and on for about two years now. It’s got drama, fun (but admittedly, mostly vague) memories, and some general musings…also, take the title with a grain of salt 😉

Our 7th “lost episode”, originally recorded way back in 2024, was something of a palate cleanser – still including the 10 Things We “Hate” About What a Girl Wants…as well as the “These’re All That” things that we actually enjoyed about this movie, and our final 90s & Noughties Cringe Factor rating of it on a scale of 1 to 10 Zach Morrises!
