    E2: They Wannabe Famous

    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!

    E4: Thatcher Spice

    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.

    E6: Spice Capitalism

    We've been waiting to dive into this topic! As 6 girls who grew up in the 90s, Spice merch is inextricably linked to our memories of the band and our first baby steps into consumerism. We reminisce on our childhood treasures as well as discuss products we never knew existed (but wish we did!). And of course, we dig into the choice to make merch such a key part of the Spice Girls' and Fuller's strategy.

    E7: Too Much

    The girls start feeling the pressure as they work on their second album, film not one but TWO movies, do performances and press, and of course maintain their merch empire. In this episode we learn about the hidden meanings behind "Stop" and "Too Much" and get into the behind the scenes of this surprisingly dark period in Spice history.

    E11: Goodbye

    Goodbye, our friends. We have reached the end of the season, and the end of the Spice Girls as we knew them. This episode sees the now four girls working on their last album as a group while pursuing their solo careers (in and out of music). In other words: it's the unraveling of the Spice Girls.
