American Girl Women is a podcast where two millennial gals gather ‘round the microphone and reminisce on the cultural phenomenon that took our childhoods by storm: American Girl Dolls. Contrary to what you might think, we aren't just talking about dolls here. We're diving into the high highs and low lows of getting hooked on AG and all the childhood memories that come flooding back. Plus, we're forever discussing the iconic AG catalog—the most treasured piece of literature to ever grace our mailboxes. If you're still bitter about not getting Samantha's brass bed, if you sent Kirsten to the doll hospital for a botched hair cut after taking out her braids, or if every winter you dream of Addy's Christmas dress, join us + our guests each Tuesday.

Customer Reviews
Mini adult collector here!
I am 10 but I love the world of ag tube and have five dolls
Molly summer Katie joss and nicki
I have been collecting since 2020
I feel like a adult collector though since ag seems to be targeting a much younger demographic and I agree with a lot of adult collector opinions
Obsessed
Can’t tell you how much I love this podcast! Found out about it through Instagram last month (their insta is the ultimate walk down memory lane) and haven’t stopped binging the episodes since! It inspired me to get my dolls out of storage & send them off to the doll hospital to get spruced up. Highly recommend especially if you were a kid in the 90s!
