Welcome to the Jungle Primary w. Reshma Saujani
Episode description
Erin and Alyssa cover Trump’s nemesis Thomas Massie’s loss in Kentucky, a positive (for now) Mifepristone update, the ridiculous Garden of Heroes, and what the hell is going on in California politics. Then, Reshma Saujani joins to discuss her new documentary No Country for Mothers, and the real issues moms face. They wrap up in the sanity corner with rave reviews of Cookie Queens and Widow's Bay.
