BSFC Super Special #3: Baby-sitters' Winter Vacation
Manage episode 320147127 series 2791269
December 1989 brought an appropriately dramatic end to the 1980s: The month kicked off with Dad Bush and future Pizza Hut spokesperson Mikhail Gorbachev announcing an end to the Cold War; ended with a piano scarfed David Hasselhoff rocking Berlin into the 1990s; and saw the debut of The Simpsons and the reign of "We Didn't Start the Fire" in between. Optimism was the general vibe, though there's little evidence of this to be found in the 3rd Baby-sitters Club Super Special. OOF.
Brooke and Kaykay discuss the problematic treatment of racism and fatphobia in the final BSC book of the 1980s, with digressions on WASP colonial cosplay, MORE PEE WEE (!!), and Young Kaykay's close encounter with the Moonies.
