Bernadette is joined by Sophia Acquisto to say, "Hi Barbie!!" Throughout the ep, they discuss their own personal Barbie histories, the genius marketing of the Barbie team, the cultural touchstone that is Barbenheimer, and (of course) what they thought of the actual movie.

Just listened to the podcast and had to jump in! I’ve always thought Barbie is more than a toy—she’s like a mirror reflecting how we grow, dream, and ask big questions about identity. When I first watched the movie, I remember laughing and thinking about how everyone’s interpretation can be totally different, kind of like when I flip through channels and land on fetv reruns that somehow feel comforting and familiar. Everyone brings their own life experiences to the story, and this podcast digs into that in such a fun way. Great convo starter for sure!
