About this episode
What is Galentine's Day? With Valentine's Day less than a week away. But even though it's a highly commercialized tradition, many of you may find this holiday ridiculous, for a variety of reasons. For example, why should love only be celebrated within a couple? True friendships can be just as strong, so why shouldn’t we celebrate them in a similar way? Well, the creators of Galentine’s Day certainly think women can and should do so! The spin-off is celebrated on February 13th and as you’ve probably guessed from the name, it's a Valentine Day's alternative for gal pals. Who came up with the idea? And what exactly happens at a Galentine's Day party? So Galentine's Day has crossed the borders of pop culture! In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!
