September 1991 Teen Life: Farming, Popularity & Baked Potatoes

Start listening

Tara needs to thank the scissor-happy Sassy reader who sold her the podcast’s original copy of the September 1991 issue, because if not for the missing pages (full and partial), we would never have had to acquire another copy of the same issue and find out there were TWO VERSIONS of the cover — one lipsticked and glossy, one nude-lipped and matte! Stand by as Pam uses her angles to try to get the inside story. While you wait, we can tell you about the issue’s Teen Life topics. Karen does a shoddy job trying to make us take up for the beleaguered American farmer. Kim tries to make us chill out about the popular kids. Boys are crying and REALLY defensive about it. And much more! Get into it!
