Erin Ryan and Alyssa Mastromonaco are together, in person, in Los Angeles (!) and mock the latest Trump indictment before diving into news coming from the Midwest, from Ohio’s special election and Wisconsin’s Judge-elect Janet Protasiewicz to backstabbing Rep. Tricia Cotham’s and concerning “prenatal care deserts” in South Dakota. Then, Evan Kleinman of KCRW’s Good Food comes on to talk about her TikTok For You Page, growing up in the LA food scene, and pomegranate molasses. Next, Megan Gailey and Kiran Deol join to discuss the double Hollywood strike, how it's impacting their careers, the economy, and labor movements at large, and how they might need to start marrying rich. Finally, some Sani-Petty (Who needs a Louis Vuitton suitcase? How are Women’s World Cup players so cool?).
