We Been Knew – An HC Northwestern Podcast – Episode 1

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Northwestern chapter.

Thanks for tuning into Her Campus Northwestern’s very first podcast! Hosted by Alani Vargas and Ariana Brockington, the “We Been Knew” podcast is all about television, pop culture and entertainment. Here, we’ll talk about the shows we know, shows we want to know and the shows you shouldn’t know at all (along with everything in between). 

For the podcast debut, we play a long round of “Blind Episode” that includes dissecting episodes of My So Called Life and Buffy the Vampire Slayer. They top it off with a “Top Tweet of the Week” segment where they talk about Justin Timberlake, the NFL and have some heated remarks.

We started this podcast to talk about what we can’t get enough of: entertainment! We are both members of multiple tv fandoms and have plenty more shows to talk about. Make sure to tune in next week and let us know if you are enjoying the podcast! If you have any suggestions or questions, make sure to tweet @alanimv or @Real_Ariana_S.
