This time we talk about the girls' ascent to fame, how they got their names, and what "Girl Power" even means. This period is marked by issues long left in society's past: sexism, fatphobia, racism, and classism! Yay! Have a listen!

In this episode, we become VJs and discuss the release and videos of the singles "Wannabe", "Say You'll Be There", and "2 Become 1". We deep dive into the hidden meaning of 2 Become 1 and also talk about nipples.... a lot. Have we mentioned this podcast is for adult audiences only?
 

How much of a role did the media play in the Spice Girls' success? More than you might think. In this episode we talk about a series of would-be misses that turned into hits - including a declaration of affection for noted villain Margaret Thatcher, the debut of the ICONIC Union Jack dress, and more nipples.

Let's talk about scandals! We've touched on a few, but this episode hones in on the ones that made the girls especially grateful they had brought in reinforcements when it comes to the media. We also discuss the release of the singles and videos for Mama and Who Do You Think You Are.
