New Podcast Episode: "The Barbie Movie Review - And Why The Kenergy?"

It's been a minute since the "Wait, What Is That?" podcast released a new episode. Leave it to Barbie to bring Brandon and Katie back together in the recording studio to analyze the movie, discussing what it brought to - or said about - pieces of our American social culture right now.

Listen to this episode right here on the "Wait, What Is That?" website, and soon on all the podcast platforms near you when you refresh.

SPOILER ALERT: This entire description and episode is filled with spoilers.

Co-hosts Brandon and Katie explore the Barbie movie from their perspectives as a tall Black man who loves superheros, and a not-as-quite-as-tall blond white woman who just stepped off her own moving sidewalk. They munch on topics from the movie including why Kenergy was introduced at all; would this movie have grossed over a billion dollars had the Ken story not been explored?; could Irrepressible Thoughts Of Death Barbie have carried it on her own?; the background of the co-creator and star Margot Robbie and writers Greta Gerwig and Noah Baumbach; more exploration of Gloria's (America Ferrera) character; and why Barbie wanted to see the gynecologist as soon as she decided to feel feelings and gain anatomy like a vagina in the Real World.
