Summary
A discussion about tweens, the modern history of the teenager, tween third places of yesterday and today, makeup counters, growing up too fast, and finger-pointing at the parents, influencers, and brands allegedly responsible for behavior that, in Kate’s opinion, is less aligned with being subjected to oppressive beauty standards and more related to what kids do best: play and explore. Enjoy!

| 0:00.0 | Hi everybody welcome back to the Be Therein Five Podcast. I'm Kate Kennedy, your host. |
| 0:14.8 | It is Wednesday, January 10th, and I am reporting live from sunny Los Angeles, California. |
| 0:22.1 | And by sunny I mean, I have not opened the blackout curtains, |
| 0:26.9 | and I could not tell you what is going on outside. |
| 0:29.4 | But that is mostly because I'm in mourning for my career. |
| 0:34.2 | This past week something happened where it became clear to me there are two types of |
| 0:40.0 | influencers in this world, two types of podcasters in this world, the ones that were invited to interview |
| 0:46.4 | Gypsy Rose Blanchard and the ones that were not. And I don't know why this event made it abundantly clear to me I'm on the out crowd, but you know, it's a tough pill to swallow. |
| 0:56.6 | And that does feel like the wrong metaphor to use here, given she did suffer from munchausens by proxy. |
| 1:01.6 | I say it's always tough when you can tell you know there was like a |
| 1:07.1 | pretty wide net cast and you weren't you weren't the catch of the day and |
| 1:12.4 | it's fine it's fine. It's fine. |
| 1:13.7 | And if you're not always my strong suit. |
| 1:16.0 | I mean, I almost went into labor and I'm in care of you in Caroline Calloway. |
| 1:19.0 | I don't, I don't do well with tension or even mild controversy. I don't know you guys. Sometimes it's just nice to be invited, you know? |
| 1:27.0 | You'll have to forgive me if the audio is a little different this week. |
| 1:31.0 | I have so many travel mics and they're just not my one at home is just so good and these pick up a lot of plosives. And anyways, just thank you for bearing with me the next month is going to be a |
| 1:45.7 | little chaotic but I'll take you along with me I'll be podcasting still every |
| 1:49.7 | week but I've just like never had to be gone this much and I just don't know what it's going to look like and I don't know what these episodes are going to look like but I figure I'm just not going to overthink it and we'll just chat about whatever is on my mind, your mind, and see where it goes. I'm trying to have a more casual |
| 2:06.4 | escapist approach to this podcast. You know, balance it out with the deep dives with the |
| 2:10.4 | plath fills that I know not everybody engages with but sorry really fast you know I have to |
| 2:15.5 | FYI my book one in a millennial is out January 23rd |
