Bimbo Theory

from Hot Local Singles · host Josh & Juan

Today a himbo and a PhD candidate examine the cultural role of the 'bimbo' (a retro trope that's angling for a comeback) with the help of a few classic pop songs: "Barbie Girl" by Aqua, "Stupid Girls" by Pink, and "Stupid Hoe" by Nicki Minaj. Links to the pieces on 2020s bimboism in Rolling Stone and i-D. Over on the Patreon pre-show we talk first impressions of new albums by Madison Beer and Danny L Harle (more on this another time) plus movies, sugar, and we ease into the bimboist waters...
