Summary
Our little Tracy is a clean teen! Join us for some big time slumber party vibes with us, our great pal Aubrey Gordon, and Hairspray!
You can find Aubrey over at Maintenance Phase, and you can find Aubrey's book here!
We made a playlist to accompany this episode! It's comprised of songs that come to mind when we all think about this movie.
You Are Good is a show in which Sarah Marshall and Alex Steed attempt to understand what the hell it means to be the grown children of dads and other dad-like figures. And, as they do with all difficult subject matter, they do so by looking through a pop culture lens.
You can find us on Twitter, Instagram and Patreon.
You can find producer and music director Carolyn Kendrick's music here. She's also on Twitter.
Fresh Lesh produces the beats for our episodes.
