Summary

Alise, Sami, and Amanda break down the upcoming governor’s election in Virginia and push back against calling it a “referendum” on Joe Biden and Democrats in Congress. How can we more constructively frame Biden’s challenging few months without being so dramatic? Then, Betches Podcast Director Sean Kilby is back to discuss “Squid Game,” the dark Korean series that’s become a global phenomenon. Why does the show resonate so strongly at this particular moment? Who were our favorite games and characters? Finally, they debate the show’s closing message and speculate about season 2. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
