[image description] Two images next to each other. On the left the characters Jo, Meg, Beth and Amy being read to by their mother Marmie in a Christmas setting. On the right, Jo, Beth, Meg and Amy gathered around their mother Marmie all looking into different directions.
One question listeners: are you a Jo, Amy, Beth, or Meg? This episode, we’re discussing characters in the 1994 and 2019 versions of Little Women, and diving deep into subtextual readings and fan interpretations.
We’ll discuss disability, autistic, and queer readings, and try to answer our question: is Little Women a ‘story for every generation’, and why is it so popular?

Didn't happen
Tumblr media
For sure I had to have a babe who has an old something of mine. 📝 You might not always want to know what happened to wohatever happened to an article of clothing of yours.
Theo: Thanks for burning the pic of me in tight bell-bottoms from Wet Seal. Thinking back, I had the legs for it. Just wasn't its time. That 70s Show wasn't out yet.
Quinn: You have the telecom intro book I was reading in the library when you first came by per the former manager's recommendation. Oh and you had the Hitachi pocket PC I used to take your info down in the lab. I'll always remember your shocked look when finding out who I met or was hiring me. We worked & studied together--no shock needed.
Rubbertoe: Sorries I up and left. Thing is, you deserve someone better, healthier, a more driven & accomplished A crazy gamer dog lover like yourself.
To all the ones I crushed on after: I'm a shy bookworm always reading to experience more lifetimes. There are a great later few who happened to catch me in the: You're actually asking me out on a date? Why me? Are you sure about this?
V: You know where you're at at why I didn't pursue. Glad we cleared that up. BTW, you better have enjoyed the PB Party.
Prof Car: Sadly you fell under the poor timing pool. On the ups you didn't need to see me have a seizure a month after we last saw each other.
Take on me guy: You're awesome, but my grade school bestie was crushing on you HARD. I'm not touching you.
Dee: You were the hottie upperclassmen I was scared to talk to or even approach. IDK why. I was friends with your bro and loved your sweet mom. Seriously nice when I'd swing by and visit to kidnap your brother for snowboarding. Thanks for warning up my Hindi. BTW, my mom really likes you.
Troy: Sorry I couldn't hold on to you. Might be because you teased me for caring so much about college. Well unlike IT, I was working on becoming a scientist. That's one of the things where having the sheepskin is valued. Don't think they're handing out certain chemicals for just anyone to pick up all willy nilly
Shawn: I had a great time going out, wine tasting, getting deep tissue massages, shopping, and even kicking it--climbing trees in the parks. Sorry, but you moved a bit fast for me.
I can keep on going with the list, but I'd like to hear from you.

“If the main character is a girl, make sure she is married by the end. Or dead. Either way” - Little Women (2019)
https://open.spotify.com/episode/4LnfEZpgwbLWYKRg04LBgy?si=da0689e641094e86
Hello again listeners!
After a short hiatus, we are back! And we’re very excited to be bringing you a three part discussion on the cultural phenomenon that is Little Women. 👭🏼👭🏻
[two women Holding Hands emojis]
For our discussions, we’ll be focusing on two of the most beloved adaptations of the original 19th century novel: Gillian Armstrong’s 1994 film, starring Winona Ryder as Jo, and Greta Gerwig’s 2019 version starring Saoirse Ronan.
Through these three episodes we want to ask the question of whether ‘every generation deserves its own Little Women’, why the story remains so popular, and how its rich history of adaptation and analysis interact to inform our current understanding of the text. 
Our main focus in this episode is how the 1994 and 2019 versions build, comment on, and reimagine the story of Little Women for their respective audiences, using not only the ‘original’ text, but also previous adaptations and interpretations of the text, and even Alcott’s own biography.
