BSFC #27: Jessi and the Superbrat

The vibe of September 1989 was BOLD, with popular uprisings against authoritarianism in East Germany, South Africa, and Beverly Hills (justice for Zsa Zsa!), Cher's scandalous strut across an aircraft carrier and up the music charts, and the debut of Joan Rivers' delightfully chaotic daytime talk show. An auspicious time to be young and creative!

Brooke and Kaykay discuss Jessi and the Superbrat's exploration of performativity and the alienation of the exceptional, with digressions on cereal box toys, Camel Cash, and the dress code on Suze Orman's island.
