Katie likes: nostalgia, politics, boy bands. Katie loves: talking, friendship. Katie Needs: a podcast. In each episode, she invites a friend to discuss the major news & pop culture events that went down between 1995-2005, and how those events shaped her generation.
We did it. The final episode. It's been a decade of nostalgia, and we cross the finish line with a very special guest: Sydney Schutte! There's iconic prom fashion moments, there's space news, Kanye enters the chat with his iconic Katrina benefit appearance, and I make a cultural prediction that will shock you to your core. Listen to us chat about all that and more as we land the plane & reflect on the iconic year that was 2005. Thanks for listening everyone!
