  • LIKE A BESTIE FACETIME

    I wasn’t on youtube during the ICONIC 2010s era, but my best friends were and they’ve been telling me to consume all Christine & Natasha content. These two make life feel more sparkly and more manageable all at once. I LOVE POWERFUL WOMEN AND I FORKING LOVE FANGIRLS

  • Like sitting down and talking with your girls

    Every time I turn on an episode, it’s like I’m sitting down and discussing pop culture with my friends! I find myself responding to Christine and Natasha like they’re sitting beside me telling me about the book they just read or which morally gray character they’d marry and which one they’d cliff.

    Their energy is so warm, and sometimes so chaotic, that I look forward to every Friday and what we’ll be discussing next!

  • My #1 podcast

    TFFG is legit my favorite podcast, because I love hearing from my parasocial BFF’s, Christine & Natasha. They make me smile, laugh, and often talk back to them as if I am actually with them in real-time. Plus, via the Patreon, anyone can pay $5 a month to get the additional 30-ish min bonus, Fangirl Tea Time!
