BSFC #36: Jessi's Baby-sitter

For our 50th episode (!!!), we're heading back to August 1990, when Mariah Carey's debut had the power on the pop charts, existential dread dominated the box office, and Ferris Bueller moved to...Santa Monica? Pop culture was getting, getting, getting kinda hectic, and so was the Ramsey household.

Brooke and Kaykay discuss the shifting family dynamics in Jessi's Baby-sitter and its exploration of the fine balance between interpersonal support and control, with diversions on friendship bracelets and private school field trips.
