She Lives for the Applause: Meet Rebecca

Episode 89,   May 30, 2022, 04:49 AM

In 2009, a new girl hit the pop culture scene, joining the likes of Lady Gaga, Beyoncé, and Kesha. Her name? Rebecca Rubin. Her height? 18”. Looking for her backstory? Cruise on over to the Wikipedia page for the Lower East Side. Actually, her books are a far better source (take it from us). In reading Meet Rebecca, we learn that this girl really only wants a few things: to be taken seriously, an acting career, and aid for her family looking to immigrate to the USA. We discuss Rebecca’s introductory plot lines, the awesome side characters, and some of the inspiration behind the book.

Time Stamps:
00:00-14:30 - We talk Owl City, pop culture moments from 2009, Unexpected, Taylor Swift's honorary degree, the Lower East Side wikipedia page
14:30-01:01:07 - Meet Rebecca discussion
