Welcome to Who Wants to be a Zillionaire--a podcast that explores the cultural trends and thingies from an oddly specific period of time. Thanks for tuning in with Madeline and Adele as we re-live the best of the early 2000s.
This week, Madeline puts on her detective hat to solve a zillennial mystery: What Happened to all the Fro-Yo Shops? Afterwards, Adele dives into the backstory behind one of America's cutest toys.
