No Country for Old Women

WOW WOW WOW. We recorded this episode days before what Steve Kornacki called election night "carnage." We talked about Marissa Mayer, our midterm election panic and terror, feeling burned and traumatized by the polls, and, finally, a bird that crashed into Jenn's window and, like our democracy, LIVED.
