Hi, it's Terry Gross from Fresh Air.
I just interviewed Billie, Eilish and Finneas about many things, including how Billie's signature baggy clothes came from watching hip hop videos.
Instead of being jealous of the women.
Who get to be around the hot.
Men, I would be jealous of the hot men.
And I wanted to dress like them.
And I wanted to be able to act like them.

Hey everybody, it's Marielle.
You guys, I've been trying so hard to make my bedroom pitch black when I sleep, but I am fighting an uphill battle.
I have blackout shades and curtains over them, but the street light on my block shines directly into my window and the light somehow sneaks around the edges of the barriers I've created.
Also, light gets in through my living room windows and then creeps under my bedroom door.
Yeah, okay, I'm being a little over the top here, but once my eyes adjust at night, it's not actually that dark in my room.
A lot of us are in this situation.
In modern society, we are bombarded with light in the evenings, and research shows that can impact our health when we get light and how much of it we get has an influence on all sorts of important functions in our bodies.
NPR health correspondent Will Stone reported on some recent findings on this, and after the break, he'll shed some light on how we should think about all of this.
