Trendspotting with Robin Knudsen!
from Teen People Hosted by Anna Soper
Robin Knudsen was 16 when she scouted my earlier guest, Preston Drum, for a Teen People photoshoot in Charlotte, North Carolina. She and Preston were friends in school, but by the time she scouted Preston for her story, he had changed schools, and it seemed like he didn’t recognize her. It didn’t help that her mum made her change from her usual, funky clothes into a more “professional” look for the job. This episode tells a coming-of-age story. Playin’ with a couple of neighbour boys and a dog in the woods. Brooding in a high school stairwell with new friends. Sharing mixtapes and headphones, and a kiss in the rain. This is Robin’s story. Podcast notes: Robin's old friend, Preston Drum, spoke with me about his 15 minutes of fame in Teen People magazine.

Music: © Anna Soper Teen People is recorded in Kingston/Katarokwi, the traditional territory of the Anishinaabe, Haudenosaunee and the Huron-Wendat.
