  • S1 Ep 11 ”Comparing *NSYNC and The Backstreet Boys”
    Sep 9 2022

    Once again, after a bit of a hiatus we have returned! The good news is we are back with a pretty epic episode! Your favorite Y2K bitches go where not many dare to go, and that is comparing *NSYNC with The Backstreet Boys. *le'gasp* The scandal, the controversy, how dare we!

     

    We dared though. Even though *NSYNC won our teeny bopper hearts, we still gave The Backstreet Boys a fair shot, and are fans of BOTH boybands. 

     

    Real Talk takes us back to when we drew that line in the sand. What made one band stand out to us more than the other? How did we become more captivated and draw the line in the sand as OG fans? There were many factors, and we explore them all! 

     

    Nostalgia sends us on a ride with straight up comparisons. We compare the two groups with personality and style as well as a little insight on vocals. There's some shade being thrown here but it's all in good fun, we have nothing but love and respect for both groups. Sometimes favoritism happens though, we can't help it. 

     

    Writing/Roleplay explores the fan fiction world again in terms of BSB and *NSYNC cross over fiction. Anyone down to read a Frick and Frack fiction? (Nick and Brian) What about a Justin Timberlake and Brian Littrell slash fiction? It's out there for real. 

     

    To end things we play a fun game of guess the group member that said this quote. A BSB member or an *NSYNC member? 

     

    DISCLAIMER : All talk and comparisons in this episode are simply our own opinions. We are not bashing or hating on anyone within these two boybands, and are just giving our own take on things. You are entitled to agree or disagree with our observations and opinions. This is our view point and ours alone we do not speak for anyone else. 

     

    Important note: 

    Howie Dorough 

    Vocal Type: Countertenor (Alto)

  • S1 Ep10 ”The Year 2010”
    Aug 26 2022

    The Y2K Bitches are celebrating our 10th episode! Yay! In honor of us hitting double digits, we chose to cover the year 2010. A time where social media platforms took off! With the fall of MySpace came the rise of Facebook and Instagram.

     

    For real talk, we get into the big life changes we were both going through. 2010 was an intense year full of new environments and some personal losses. It wasn't all sad times though, there were many good things that happened too! 

     

    The nostalgia segment dives deep into the music, fashion, TV shows and movies that were taking place in 2010. Let's just say it out loud...vampires, vampires galore. Music was leading into a more dance era, everyone loved a good scarf, and boots were a staple piece. 

     

    In writing and role play we talk about how the whole vampire craze inspired us write some paranormal stories of our own. 

     

    Hold on tight spider monkey as we travel back to the year 2010!

  • S1 Ep9 ”Warped Tour And Being Hardcore”
    Aug 19 2022

    After a week long hiatus, episode 9 is finally here! This week we have a special guest. Our good friend Monica joins us to discuss all things Warped Tour and concert life. Mandy and Monica have been friends since high school, and have gone to concerts a plenty together. 

     

    In our Real Talk segment we basically have a full on slumber party, as we recall our early days, and how we all started out as bubble gum pop teenagers that converted over to the dark side of emo music and the punk pop take over. 

     

    For Nostalgia we recall our early days of Warped Tour in 2005, and how the punk pop scene didn't welcome us with open arms at first. We look back at some of our very first concerts, awkward run ins with band members, and accidental black eyes. Yikes! 

     

    In the Writing/Roleplay segment we put Monica on the hot seat as she spills the tea on one of her own fanfic stories starring one of the band members from the band Good Charlotte. 

     

    To wrap things up we play a very brutal game of 'Would You Rather'

     

    Throw on those Converse, and grab your favorite merch shirt as we get Monica to flash back to her past with us!

     

    Notes worth mentioning: Way back in the olden days, Mandy primarily went by the name 'Amanda'.

    We recorded this episode over Zoom. There were some echo issues and feedback going on for the first few minutes, but it goes away we promise !
