About this listen

 The Dumbest Girl Alive is a cultural commentary podcast that treats the internet like an archive and a diary at once. Each episode starts with one fixation or zeitgeist moment and pulls the thread: who made it, who it serves, why it sticks. Hosted by Fern (she/her), the show mixes literature review, media history, and unhinged field notes: footnotes with feelings, theory with thirst, rot with rigor. Come for the pop culture. Stay for the slutty little citations. Magna dumb laude, baby!Copyright 2025 Art Social Sciences

    Filed in the archive as a preliminary deposit—unprocessed, uncatalogued, but necessary to mark the beginning.

    Not a trailer, not an episode, just the part where I clear my throat before things get real stupid.

    Remember, The Dumbest Girl Alive is a podcast about internet culture, fandom, lowbrow media, and the strange spirals between.

    Welcome to The Dumbest Girl Alive! A podcast about dumb stuff that’s smart, smart stuff that’s dumb, and everything rotting in between.


    Hosted by Fern (chronically online archive banshee, research romantic, emotional shitposter), TDGA treats 'lowbrow' culture with highbrow curiosity and irreverent care. Each episode spirals from the trivial (a trope, a cursed scent, a blog-era overshare) into the sprawling: grief, fandom, literature, history, identity, and that one oddly specific feeling you thought only you had.


    It’s funny. It’s sharp. It’s a little cursed. Fern tried really hard, okay?
