Plus, Presidential Historian Alexis Coe joins to talk about how the male gaze has distorted our perception of history and the often manufactured nature of Women’s History Month. Then, Kiran Deol and Dana Schwartz talk about the Love is Blind finale and the privilege of choosing yourself. Finally, a much needed Sanity Corner.
