Think Pink: Barbie Part 2
In this episode, I'm joined by my romance friend Mariah to gush, giggle, get deep and then frothy again about the Barbie movie, starring Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling, directed by Greta Gerwig. It was the most mega of mega movie hits last year, now Oscar nominated in many categories, and well deserved. It's been a long time since a movie has made me laugh and think this much, and we just can't stop talking about it.

There are more clips and even more delicious gushing in my recent Boss in Pink: Barbie (Part 1) episode.
This is one of my favorite scenes in the movie, which I mentioned early on, but just couldn't fit into the episode. Who am I kidding: the whole movie is my favorite scene.
The Margaret Atwood poem that Mariah mentions is You Begin.
Every single person on the planet: If you haven't seen Barbie yet, please do. And then let us know what you think.
