Gossip: Women's Original Sin

Julia Hava & Eliza McLamb
About this episode
The girlies discuss the politics of gossip - how it serves us evolutionarily, how women used it as a feminist act of resistance, and why it's commonly dismissed as surface-level shit talk. Digressions include some revelations about 9/11, whether or not it's ethical to work remotely for Lockheed Martin, and Southern euphemisms for telling you to go fuck yourself.
