Clueless
from Pop & Locke
“Clueless” as she may be, Cher Horowitz isn’t just a naive high school student. She’s a pro-immigration, free market friendly, drug decriminalization defender. But what about her tendency to assume what other people want or need?Reason’s Katherine Mangu Ward and Natalie Dowzicky join the show to break down whether her well intentioned “helpfulness” is cover for more authoritarian tendencies, the possible decline of a car-centric culture’s notions of youthful freedom and agency, and the complicated legacy of the film’s depiction of gender roles. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
