This is Sarah Stewart Holland and this is Beth Silverce.

Thank you for joining us for Pantsuit Politics.

Hi everyone, if you have been listening to Pantsuit Politics all year, you know that

we prioritize the January 6 hearings all summer and throughout the fall.

We watched every hearing and processed them together, we devoted time on the show, on our

social media channels, and in our newsletters to recapping these hearings.

We even created a January 6 study guide to help us all keep track of what we were learning

and from whom we were learning it.

So as we thought about what we wanted to highlight as the year draws to a close, we knew we had

to include an episode about the January 6 committees work.

Today, you'll hear excerpts from our episodes immediately following each of the hearings.

You'll notice that our understanding of events changes as we learn more, and you'll hear us

thinking through what these hearings ask of us as citizens.

If listening prompts you to want to engage with these hearings for the first time, we'll

link everything you need to do that in our show notes.

And if this is a review for you, we hope it's a helpful one.

So I often struggled at school.

Once when we had a maths test, I looked around the room and everyone was just doing it,

and I couldn't, and I began to cry.

But my teacher came over and said it might look like one big problem, but it's just a

handful of small ones, and you can deal with that.

I hear her voice in my head for every problem I face to this day.
