What are you wearing in October 1988? Sassy wants to show you a lot of coats (which look good when accessorized with a boyfriend), a story inspired by the Beats, and jumpers. It also wants you to ruin a sweater with an assload of bells, and stick a bunch of hatpins in the tallest hat you can find. A beauty feature on how to achieve perfect skin proves to be another strangely formative story for two of your co-hosts, though the About Face items that most resonated are just…strange. Then & Now does a glam ’40s-style makeover; the ads take us through ABC Daytime stars, the two jobs available to women, and baffling typographical choices. Sassy Club gets spooky for October, Diary highlights Andrea, Say What blows the lid off a plagiarism scandal, and haters get ONE WHOLE PAGE to air their grievances. We hope you won’t be similarly aggrieved by our latest podcast!
