Description
Here’s a little pinkified palate cleanser for y’all - it’s Kara, Penny, and Jason talking Barbie! If you haven’t tuned in to the cultural phenom that is the new Barbie movie yet, it was directed and co-written by Greta Gerwig, who usually does smart, character-focused indie movies like Lady Bird and Frances Ha, and we thought she was such an inspired choice for this surprisingly complex, layered, funny, incredibly beautiful, thought-provoking movie. This podcast is full of spoilers, so if you’re at all interested, we recommend you bust out your pinkest duds and go check out the movie first, and then come back and listen.  Links: • Tod Haynes movie, Superstar, on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OLx9IQ8Z7rQ • Mini Hijab Fashion: https://www.instagram.com/hijarbie/ • “A Real Doll” by AM Holmes: https://electricliterature.com/a-real-doll-by-a-m-homes/ • MarWenCol, 2010 documentary about artist Mark Hogencamp and the world he creates using Barbies and GI Joe dolls: http://marwencol.com/documentary  As always, thanks to everyone who wrote in.
