00:00:00.700Hi, everyone. I'm Anne-Hellen Peterson, and this is the Culture Study Podcast.
00:00:05.320And I'm Melody Rowell, producer of said podcast.
00:00:09.140We did not write out an intro for ourselves today. So this is my way of saying we are doing a special subscriber-only year-end episode,
