Still Buffering

It's America's (belated) birthday! To celebrate, we're talking about all of the pretty dumb things we do with fireworks and fire crackers and just fire in general as teens and beyond, come celebrate a little late with us, won't you? Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by Nouvellas

Well, now our babiest Smirl has had the experience of living with roommates for a full year, and she's about to do it all again next year, so does she have any new thoughts to share now that she's an experienced roommate? Does she have anything to keep in mind before next year? How long is too long for towel time? Come find out with us! Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by Nouvellas

We all did it as angsty emotional teens, didn't we? Filled notebooks and notes apps with long, dramatic, heartbreak poems? Or was that just Sydnee and Rileigh? Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by Nouvellas

Okay, we have some serious opinions about commercials of the 90s, but who doesn't? They were all kinda the same, we all still remember ALL of them, and most importantly, we can't figure out what happened to them? Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by Nouvellas

We realized in the entire 3+ years of this show that we had NEVER dedicated an entire episode to the entity that is ~the internet~. So we're going deep to examine all those differences between the world pre and post internet, and why did we all take the same typing courses?? Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by Nouvellas

Rileigh's enjoying a beach vacation, so Sydnee and Teylor capitalize on the opportunity to reflect on all the great stuff about being an adult. Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by Nouvellas

Upon a recent trip with Rileigh to the mall, Sydnee made a shocking discovery: teens don't wear tons of jewelry anymore??? What ever happened to the giant earring books and hemp chokers and toe rings?? We must investigate. Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by Nouvellas

We all made them as teens, you know, those homemade movies and videos that are horribly put together and have little to no actual plot but that we LOVED to make? The only difference now is that teens are putting all of them on the internet...which actually is a pretty big difference now that we think about it. Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by Nouvellas

It's almost summertime, which means the teens will be home all day every day and looking for something to do. So what are some fun activities for the modern teen who's bored? The older sisters had some methods of their own for killing time, and they're...interesting. Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by Nouvellas

It's finals season for Rileigh, and it seems like sleep is one key part of life that she isn't doing too great on. Not to mention curfews, party times, and how late we get to sleep in, the sisters all have some sleep habits they probably could do better on, so let's try to get some rest, shall we? Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by Nouvellas

It's been a bit of a rough week for all of us, hasn't it? We started it all off with Tax Day, and we should have known then it'd be a little bit of a bad one. So to celebrate(?) the holiday that is tax season, we're talking about money! What do you do with it once you get it as a teen for the first time? What are taxes? Is credit a thing? Is debt good? Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by Nouvellas

Well, our sisters have returned on no day other than National Sibling Day! To celebrate, we're talking about the hippest of controversies happening with teens today: Operation Blue Ivy...or Blue Varsity? Varsity Ivy??? Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by Nouvellas

IT'S STILL THE MAXFUNDRIVE! To wrap-up and continue to celebrate this joyous season, we're continuing a tradition we started last year during the MaxFunDrive. Last year, Rileigh quizzed her sisters on how much teen knowledge they had gained from her throughout the years, and this year the older sisters are doing the same. Does Rileigh know anything about 90s teens? Or anything about the 90s at all? (Also, there may be a secret in this episode somewhere...) Music: "Baby You Change Your...

IT'S THE MAXFUNDRIVE! To celebrate this most wonderful time of year, we brought on our favorite teen of the future, Charlie Gail McElroy! We wanted to find out what the teens of tomorrow are going to be listening to, watching, and doing, so we went straight to the source. Come join all four of us, and don't forget to become a member of the MaxFun family this MaxFunDrive! Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by Nouvellas

We're back with part 2 of our Women's History Month extravaganza! This week, we're discussing some of our fictional female role models, and how female representation for teens in media has changed over time. From Buffy to Hermione and even some princesses, we've got it all, so come celebrate some super cool fictional females with us! Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by Nouvellas

It's Women's History Month! To celebrate this month of celebration, we're all sharing our most inspiring and influential female role models throughout our teen years and beyond. They made us who we are today, and we want to celebrate them! So come share some of your favorite female icons with us! Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by Nouvellas

It only took us a year, but we're back with another "Ask a Teen!" We've collected all of your questions like "a squirrel with nuts" as Sydnee would say, and are ready to answer all of them. We go from how to make excuses to get out of plans, to toxic friends, to technology, and we want you there for all of it! Come join us! Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by Nouvellas

We've talked a lot before about the growing "woke-ness" of this generation, but we haven't spent much time discussing how it is helping our planet. Back in the day, teens knew to recycle and cut those plastic rings, but what else have teens learned throughout the years? Are we really helping? Are ducks okay??? Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by Nouvellas

The older sisters realized that back in the day there would be widespread cultural moments that thousands of teens everywhere shared, whether it was as a TV series finale or a new album release, there were things to share with people you'd never meet. Do those even still exist for the teens of today? Does live tweeting count? Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by Nouvellas

As we all continue on our path to a tidy living space, we've realized that as teens we can tend to keep a lot of "sentimental" things that we really probably shouldn't, or maybe even throw out things that we wish we hadn't. So let's talk about what we really really should keep and what could maybe be tossed, like every movie ticket you've ever received *cough Rileigh cough*.
