| 0:00.0 | When our producer, Messy Mikey was telling us yesterday in a post-show meeting about this one store, I was floored. |
| 0:07.9 | I was floored. |
| 0:08.6 | In 2025, when we are so politically correct and we are so aware of like women's sizes being accurate from one store to the other and not body shaming, How is this one store, a store, and how is it so popular? |
| 0:25.8 | Well, the name of the establishment is Brandy Melville. |
| 0:29.6 | And is that like a, you guys have heard of that a lot? |
| 0:32.6 | Oh, really? |
| 0:33.1 | Oh, really? |
| 0:34.0 | I've heard of it. |
| 0:35.0 | So, yeah, the first time I heard of Brandy Melville, I was studying abroad in college. And I remember we were, I mean, I think this is like an American brand. And my two friends that I was rooming with was like, oh my God, there's a Brandy Melville. And Madrid, we have to go to Brandy Melville. And I walk in, I'm like, this is baby gap for women because it's only one size fits all. And it's not like, oh, everything must be accommodating for all sizes. |

| 1:52.6 | There are other reasons to go to China. |
| 1:54.7 | Nope, Brandy Melville and back. |
| 1:57.0 | All right. |
| 1:57.4 | Screw the great wall. |
| 1:59.3 | We want to see Brandy Melville. Instead, I took her to Brandy Melville and I took her to Chinatown. So that's a lot cheaper trip in Chicago. Yeah, pretty good. |
| 2:10.4 | So how is this store like a thing and how is it not getting a whole bunch of in this in 2025? I guess, you know, if you want to argue both sides, there are women's plus size stores, right? |
