"Basic" had her moment about five years ago when her love of Pumpkin Spiced Lattes, Ugg boots, white wine, yoga pants and Mean Girls made her a household name. Now, these preferences are like relics — vintage cultural signifiers of a once-popular lifestyle. But years after the basic boom, we’re in the midst of the reclaiming and mutation of “basic” culture, wherein the moniker can be worn as a badge of pride. Hannah will delve into all things basic and unlike her Instagram, there is no filter on this podcast.
