Hi!

Hi, guys. Coming up on today's show, I'm excited for this one. Let's settle in. The summer I Turned Pretty is everywhere. We wanted to explore the appeal of the show and why it seems to have taken off with millennial women in particular. How did it cut through when so many other shows have tried and failed? Also, the summer I turned pretty has a reputation for being warm and fuzzy. So why has the show recently

had to issue a request for viewers to please stop bullying its cast members, or should we say

one cast member in particular? We're talking about the thing that everyone's talking about at the

moment, but before we get there, hi, Michelle. Lock yourself in. What? I think if I can get you across the line with any documentary, I know you're not a documentary viewer. I've seen the keyword you've used in your notes for this, and I suspect I know what this is about, and I think it looks really interesting. Anthony Wiener. Yeah. Gill. Notting?

Yeah, I know about this, but only at a very surface level. Okay, well, listeners, come on a ride with me because this documentary is one of the most fascinating docos I've ever watched. As always, I'm going through that list of top 100 rated docos of all time. Listeners have been in my DM saying, where is this list? I'm just going by the rotten tomatoes list.

There's no special sauce on this.

Nothing special. Listeners have been in my DM saying, where is this list? I'm just going by the rotten tomatoes list.
