If you were a 90's baby you would know Rom Coms were a staple of our generation. All girls coming of age could relate to the emotion, sappiness, hilarity and dreaminess that romantic comedies evoked in us all. In our past episodes we have talked about movies that defined us. But rom coms were in a league of their own and were movies that most of us had on repeat depending on which ones were our favs. We definitely went off on a tangent with this one so a part two is in order... come with us down memory lane.

VH1 had more than a few shows that defined a generation. Behind the Music, Surreal Life, Pop up Videos and the infamous top 20 countdowns. Who did it better MTV or VH1? Press play to listen to our take on this debate. Lets just say its a hard decision. VH1 was a nice balance between Music and Reality TV. They knew their audience and didn't sway from what the people wanted. Join us as we go back in time and reminisce about one of our favorite channels.

Mary Kay Letourneau was a schoolteacher who gained national attention when she was convicted of raping her 12-year-old student, Vili Fualaau, in 1997. Letourneau, who was 34 years old at the time, began a sexual relationship with Fualaau when he was her sixth-grade student.

She initially served a short prison sentence, but very shortly after her release, she was caught again with Fualaau and sent back to prison to serve her original sentence of seven years. Prior to her release, Letourneau had already given birth to two daughters with Fualaau. After Letourneau’s second release from prison in 2004, Letourneau and Fualaau were married in early 2005.

This case drew significant media attention and raised many questions about the nature of consent in cases involving adults and minors.

Letourneau passed away in July 2020 due to cancer.

BRAD PITT, JOHNNY DEPP, LEONARDO DICAPRIO and the list goes on. In fact, there will definitely need to be a continuation of this topic because 1 hour was not enough time to speak of the hotness that transpired during our teenage years. Damn, we were lucky to witness them in their prime!! And ladies did they or did they not get better with age? Like a fine wine.

Fasten your seatbelts and have your water bottles handy, because it smells like sex and candy up in here.
