Mawmas, while Snooki is in recovery mode from major surgery, our besties have left us another gift. A guide to the 2000s, with an all-inclusive flash back leaving us yearning for a time long ago (not that long though, we’re not that old). First, our besties are protesting the long, overheated summer. It’s time for the holidays! Speaking of sweaty summers, the two talk hygiene routines: it’s morning vs. evening showers. Then we’re on a wild ride to the past. Long before soul cycle, we had tanning salons for community, where befriending the receptionist was the key to your social life. It’s a mystery how we didn’t damage our skin and yet we’re claimed to be the youngest looking generation. After baking all day in the artificial sun and spa, we hit the parking lots, chain smoking and cranking CDs, pregaming on cheap jet fuel by the names of Cisco and Four Loko to get our nights going and save a few dollars. We were broke back in the day, and this was before $30 cocktails. The best part? The after party…at your local Mickey D’s…Taco Bell, Burger King, and White Castle. Why choose? And no 2000s tour is complete without a book club read from our favorite adopted Chilean author…Snooki Polizzi’s Confessions of a Guidette. The ULTIMATE guide to Y2K fashion era including tacky jewelry, four inch heels (minimum), and what it means to be a Meatball. VolumeSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
