Fangirl Culture and Its Impact Today with Issy Aldridge

In this week's episode I'm talking to recent music journalism graduate, Issy Aldridge, who wrote her dissertation on Music Fandoms and how they can enrich your life further than what is first thought. We discuss what a Fangirl is, why they are perceived to be crazy as well as how being part of a fandom when she was younger has now made her pursue a career in music journalism. We also discuss how One Direction's Olivia deserved those trumpets too!
