They Thought I Was You
Hosts Becca Roth and Lani Harms revisit their childhood obsessions with Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, analyzing their work, examining their impact on pop culture, and talking with the people who worked with them. It's the deep dive you've always wanted and the recognition the Olsen Twins always deserved.
They Thought I Was You
Ashley Olsen's Wedding
We're BACK for Season 4 with an episode we did not plan on doing. But when one of our girls is in the news, we have no choice but to drop everything. And last week, we got some big news... Ashley Fuller Olsen got MARRIED!
But of course in true Olsen fashion, details about the matrimony are not widely available. And since we respect our girls, we tried our best not to speculate, but instead talk about what we know-- her husband's name (Louis Eisner), the very limited 50 guests that attended in LA, and the date that it happened (Dec 28th, a new date to commit to memory). The one time we do allow ourselves to speculate is on the discussions between Louis & Ashley that must have happened to create Ashley's iconic machete photo from 2021.
We also talk about the media's treatment of Mary-Kate's wedding years ago, and predict if the same type of "cigarette bowl" rumors will start again with Ashley's wedding. And we get sidetracked as Lani digs herself into a hole she'll never be able to get out of about what age a woman "should" get married.
We'll be back next week with the interview we intended on dropping today, and trust us, you're not gonna want to miss it. But until then, the BIGGEST congrats to Ashley & Louis! We're so happy, we're barely offended we weren't invited!
