About this episode

A conversation exploring parenting questions, first world problems, and a deeper analysis of the 2001 film Josie and the Pussycats.

A conversation with my trainer turned into a genuine question for parents. WARNING: If you're not in the mood for a first world problem venting session, skip. Does anyone remember the 2001 Josie and the Pussycats movie? 10/10 recommend watching this WITH ADULT EARS AND EYES!!!! This movie was far more than just calling out hidden agendas in the entertainment industry and consumerism; as an adult I clocked A TON MORE like pointing out the racism in the industry. Also, tune in for my Josie and the Pussycats theory and head over to YouTube @unshutpodcast for an extended version of this episode with MUSIC THAT F*CKS ME UP! Host: @gimmemoalex on instagram
