Episode notes
This week, Guy and the gang talk about their favorite first ladies and lady presidents in movies and TV. Is there a fictional first lady that ISN’T some kind of commentary on Hillary? What kind of media would we like to see about the Obamas? When will Melania spill the tea? Plus, Margaret’s baby makes his first podcast appearance, Wynter discusses Chris Rock’s Netflix special, Guy talks Queer Eye, and the panel has a conversation on Parkland and Emma Gonzalez’ speech on gun control.
With Guy Branum, Wynter Mitchell, Karen Tongson and Margaret Wappler.
