This is a thoughtful, readable, funny, interesting analysis of pop culture. Harris is a little younger than me and since I do t watch a lot of TV series, some of the examples I didn‘t know firsthand. It didn‘t take away from her points, and each essay was biographical, connected and well written. I‘ll be thinking about her points for awhile. Excellent!
Millennial pop culture essay collections don‘t always hit me right because I‘m just old enough not to have the same reference points. However, Harris‘ is surprisingly heavy on astute criticism instead of just nostalgia. I particularly enjoyed her essay about the constant stream of reboots we face. A worthy #BorrowNotBuy!
⭐️⭐️⭐️ Pop Culture Happy Hour‘s Aisha Harris addresses systemic trends in pop culture in a witty, and obviously, intelligent way. From Another Bad Creation‘s singular hit (#iykyk and you might remember all the words) to the Spice Girls to Disney film families, and much in between. This was a solid listen and fun way to spend an afternoon. I wish it had been longer, or maybe that some essays had been shorter, making room for a couple more topics.
