  • Great Defense of Ted Kennedy

    Ted Kennedy episode ends with a lovely sympathetic defense of Ted Kennedy because the hosts like his politics. It’s good to hear two women defending such a champion of women after running through his cruelty to his wife and murder of Mary Jo Kopechne. Why isn’t there a part II of Chappaquidick episode?
