Netflix’s Wednesday has given us the opportunity to get to know this long-time icon in a new, deeper way – and it’s also given her the freedom to grow as a person in ways she never has before. So how has Wednesday evolved? And what can we learn from her? Let’s dig in… Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Everyone likes to talk about themselves every once in a while, but what is it that compels some people to make it their entire career? To get a better understanding of this phenomenon, let’s use some of our favorite oversharing writers from movies and TV like (Carrie Bradshaw, Lena Dunham/Hannah Horvath, and even Gossip Girl himself Dan Humphrey & more) to unpack: the reasons why people tend to overshare, how some turned it into an entire career (from books to blogs to TikTok and other social media), and all of those downsides that people often don’t think about until it’s too late… Learn more about your ad choices.

TRON: Ares, the newest entry into the Tron franchise starring Jared Leto, Greta Lee and Evan Peters, has flopped in a big way and looks like it’s going to be an over $100 million loss for Disney. So, what actually went wrong here? Let’s break down the real reasons why TRON: Ares just didn’t quite work (and why that doesn’t necessarily mean it’s a total failure forever.)

Some say that the ‘it factor’ is something that you either have or you don’t, that ‘coolness’ is something that’s just innate within some people, and something the rest of us can never truly hope to capture. But the truth is quite different: coolness is pretty much always cultivated to some degree. This choice to deliberately work to build up a specific idea of yourself as interesting has gone by plenty of different names, from creating a persona, to curating a vibe, and now to ‘aura farming.’ But what is aura farming, really? It’s actually more interesting than you might expect, and can be relatable to our own everyday lives in surprising ways.

Go to http://uncommongoods.com/thetake for 15% off! The Summer I Turned Pretty has become one of the biggest teen dramas of our current era, and one of the most contentious aspects of the show has actually ended up being the girl at the center of it all: Belly Conklin. She is quite the polarizing figure; while many find her to be relatable, others have had a very hard time connecting with her at all (and some have even come to see her as the villain of the show.) Belly’s story digs into the true messiness of growing up and trying to figure out who you are in a world that doesn’t always seem to make sense. She’s cringe, messy, indecisive, a little (okay, maybe a lot…) selfish – but not necessarily unrealistic. So let’s take a closer look at Belly and her story to uncover why her flaws are integral to her growth journey (even if they make us want to yell at the TV sometimes…) Learn more about your ad choices.
