We get into the social hierarchy of high school, growing up in the early 00s, how women are pitted against each other, and how radically the film's reputation has shifted over the years, as well has ponder over Megan Fox's fascinating public persona.Read E.T.'s writing here.follow and subscribe to the show on your favorite platform via the link below:https://linktr.ee/martynstrangeSupport me on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/martynstrange Hosted on Acast.
