Summary

This week on Office Ladies 6.0 Jenna and Angela break down the eighth episode of The Paper, “Church and State.” When a massive sewer clog exposes thousands of not-so-flushable Man Mitts, Ned clashes with Ken over corporate loyalty versus journalistic integrity. Meanwhile, Esmeralda takes stage-mom energy to a whole new level during her son’s commercial audition, and Mare uncovers a very incriminating reply-all paper trail. Along the way, Jenna and Angela share behind-the-scenes tidbits from director Matt Sohn, discuss infamous sewer clogs, and explore the “grey rocking” method. So maybe don’t flush that wipe, think twice before hitting “reply all”… and enjoy!
