Gabrielle Minoli (@saltlacroix) is an LA-based writer and comedy content creator. Her satirical fashion trend prediction series on TikTok and Instagram has earned her accolades such as “my Oracle of Delphi,” “sociologists could never,” and “who is this esoteric diva?” She has her mother’s Argentinian family to thank for her Catholic upbringing, and unfettered access to computers from a young age to thank for being chronically online. Listen in as Gabrielle and Anne talk communion dresses, dodging Confirmation, and how talking to fellow raised-Catholics is a lot like one of those “Are we dating the same guy?” facebook groups.
