Pop Culture in Retrospect w/ Jessica Bennett

Candice is joined by New York Times journalist and NYU adjunct professor Jessica Bennett to talk about the massive impact that pop culture from the past has on present-day conversations and attitudes. From seeing Pacey losing his virginity to a teacher in Dawson’s Creek to the way the public spoke about Monica Lewinsky in the 80s, it’s shocking to realize how quickly the tone has shifted (but also perhaps not quite) over just a handful of decades. Jessica’s Social Media:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jessicabennettTwitter: https://twitter.com/jessicabennettCheck Out IN RETRO Podcast: https://www.instagram.com/inretropodCandice's Social Media:www.instagram.com/candiceking/www.instagram.com/asuperbloompod/www.tiktok.com/@itscandiceking Hosted on Acast.

A Superbloom is a rare botanical phenomenon that is associated with an unusually wet, and rainy season. After the rainstorms, seeds of wildflowers that have lain dormant in desert soil begin to germinate and blossom all at once into a beautiful and magnificent superbloom.  This is what our host, Candice King, wants. Life has felt like one rainstorm after another and now, after laying dormant for a bit, I’m ready for a superbloom. On A Superbloom Podcast host, Candice King is asking others who’ve experienced their own roadblocks, grief, or tough times to share in how their experiences went on to feed their souls. To talk about the events and passions in their life that allowed them to grow and superbloom into their next chapter. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
