Ep. 168 Living in a Barbie World

From the outside, Barbie seems to have it all:  She’s attractive, smart, rich, and made of plastic.  Her resume is a little suss, given that she has been everything from a cat burglar, to an astronaut without any sort of job stability, but I digress.  Part of that uncertainty may be governed by her world.  The houses are cut in half, her legs don’t bend, she is devoid of genitals, and everything is a shade of pink.  This week we peer into this world in an attempt to figure out how it operates.  Is Barbie just an incarnation of her owners thoughts, or some form of Tulpa or thought being?   What a transition into the real world would look like?  Also, what is Ken’s role in all of this (if any)?  We answer these questions and many more!
