Hello, and welcome to the Double X-GX Gap Fest for Thursday, September 20th, the Mrs. Jesus edition.

I'm Alison Benedict, the editor of Double X. I'm in the New York studio with Noreen Malone, staff writer for the New Republic. Hey, Noreen. Hey, Allison. And all the way across the country on her whirlwind end-of-men book tour is Double-X editor Hannah Rosen in San Francisco. Hey, Hannah. Hi. So today, we're going to talk about Naomi Wolf's new book,

Vagina, a new biography, which has been received with a mostly vicious response. We're going to

talk about comedy star Mindy Kaling, whose new show The Mindy Project premieres on Fox on Tuesday.

And we're going to talk about the recent discovery of a very old scrap of paper that appears to quote Jesus talking about his wife, Mrs. Jesus.

But first, Hannah wants to talk to all of our listeners.

Yeah, I really, really want to thank the podcast fans who have sewn up with such love and enthusiasm at the events I've had in New York and D.C.

It's been incredibly heartwarming.

I've heard stories of people listening to our podcast, like, while filling milk bottles and, like, people playing it in the Hudson Trail Outfitter store,

and people told me amazing stories of when they listen to the podcast and who

they foisted on and how they foisted on their boyfriends.

And it is by far been the most delightful part of my book tour so far.

So thank you guys so much.

And keep showing up.

You can, my events are listed on my website, which is hana rosin.com and also on my

Facebook page, which is Hanna Rosen Books.

But I want to meet all the podcast fans around the country. They make it feel like home.
