Podcasts about sloppy firsts

Pam is overseas and Kim Reed's internet has been destroyed, but guest co-host Megan McCafferty is here! And eager to dig in on October 1989's pop culture topics. Her beloved Keith Coogan gets a mention in a What Now blurb about Star Search! Her object of teenage obsession, River Phoenix, gets a whole page to proselytize to Christina about animal rights! And there's more: we also cover Gleaming The Cube, The Karate Kid Part III, Frank Whaley, acceptable potatoes, whether The Pogues and reggae are repetitive (spoiler: yes), and -- somehow -- Steven Spielberg's defunct theme restaurant, Dive!. Make yourself a sandwich and your dog some meat-free kibble and join us!QUICK LINKS

The last of our three inter-season specials is a special crossover with our friends at the Listen to Sassy podcast. In addition to guest Scoremaster Tara Ariano and guest Production Master Pamela Ribon, Megan, Maggie, and Jill will duke it out to show off their knowledge of the pop culture of the Sassy Era (and also a surprising amount of Sex and the City content, I guess?) We'll quiz about Sassy headlines, ABC After School Specials, cute boys from the cover, and so much more! Minimal Star Logs will experience jammage.Support Us On Patreon

On this episode of The SSR Podcast, we break down Megan McCafferty's 2001 novel Sloppy Firsts, the first book in the bestselling Jessica Darling series. We dive into every last delicious detail of high school drama and tackle some big questions, too. Can things ever stay the same with a friend after she moves away? Can a bad boy like Marcus Flutie ever really be reformed? How do frank discussions of sex, drugs, and suicide affect teen readers? Follow guest Maddie Boardman on Instagram (@mboardman) and Twitter (@ml_boardman).

In this episode we flash back to the early 2000's for some awesome fashion choices, what it was like to be in High School and we stop to eat some german pancakes along the way while we read Sloppy Firsts by Megan McCafferty.

Jump in the time machine and head back to Y2K with Megan McCafferty’s Sloppy Firsts. We discuss how quickly things become dated, the tunnel vision of youth, and how teen lit creates real life “smutspectations”. Check It Out! Theme Music is “Nekozilla (LFZ Remix)” by Different Heaven

Where do teens turn when they aren't getting the information they want and need from their schools (or often parents)? For many, it's their local bookstore or library. In this episode of The Huffington Post's Love+Sex Podcast, co-hosts Carina Kolodny and Noah Michelson explore how young adult (YA) literature -- from classics like Clan of the Cave Bear to more recent favorites like Twilight -- is providing many teens with information about sex and sexuality they aren't getting anywhere else. Kolodny and Michelson chatted with Emily M. Danforth, the author of The Misadventures of Cameron Post, Megan McCafferty, the author of the New York Times-bestselling Jessica Darling series which includes Sloppy Firsts and Amy Lang, the founder of Birds And Bees And Kids, which helps parents figure out how to approach that important -- and often intimidating -- talk about sex with their kids.
