Thank you, Kara. Your interview with Jane Fonda inspires! What an incredible woman.
Fonda is a force. Her rigorous activism is what we should all aspire to. Jane is also a pioneer in the feminist movement—something that is lost on the privileged and coddled younger white generation. Jane shows the grit needed to turn this fascist timeline around. The younger generations of women need to understand the rights they will lose.

It’s somewhat frustrating to listen to a show where the host is liberal but the advertisers are not. For example, Charles Schwab is a strongly Republican company. They were among the top companies to flip SCOTUS to be conservative. Why not put your advertisers where your values are?
I love this podcast. But this is one of the best episodes. So informative with specifics one can do.
Your interview with Ms Fonda was a joy to listen to. She is full of so much wisdom and kindness. And she’s right about Trump , he was traumatized by both his parents, but especially his father. Thank you for this interview.
