POPULARITY
Full episode available on Patreon: Kristen and Bethany Baird make Christian life advice content on Youtube for their modest audience of 100k followers. But when Cody Ko reacted to one of their videos on his channel, spawning an entire industry of Girl Defined commentary, they became overnight sensations… for all the wrong reasons. Girl Defined certainly spreads harmful fundamentalist views to impressionable young women but, in this bonus episode, Hannah and Maia question whether Kristen and Bethany are always deserving of vitriol. For women coming into their sexualities alongside their audience, it's important to consider if their advice is hypocritical, or just confused. Tangents include: Nara Smith and the TikTok trad wives, the “Who said I can't wear my purity era with my converse” era of Disney, and the political theatre of Republican Christianity and its weaponization of Sydney Sweeney's boobs. Oh - and MANY “69” jokes.

"Love Defined" by Kristen Clark and Bethany Baird book review
This week we're exploring what true and authentic love really means. Bethany Baird and Kristen Clark are sisters and co-authors of Love Defined, a book that offers a Biblical approach to finding true love and having a godly marriage.
She starred in thirty major films. She was awarded a Golden Globe for “Female World Film Favorite.” She started her own production company. She was voted “2nd Greatest Movie Star” of all time by Premiere Magazine. She was chosen by Empire magazine as one of the “100 Sexiest Stars in Film History.” She was beautiful, talented, successful and seemed to have everything a woman could ever dream of, except for one thing - happiness. Who am I talking about? Norma Jeane Baker, better known as Marilyn Monroe. She’s the epitome of a girl defined by her culture. How could a woman who literally had “everything” still feel unloved and unfulfilled? Kristen Clark & Bethany Baird are my guests to help answer that question. They have written a new book titled “Girl Defined: God’s Radical Design for Beauty, Femininity and Identity”.
