  • Summary

  • The girlies bring you a silly Election Day episode to distract you from the horrors and feelings of impending doom. They discuss the craziest smear campaigns of elections past, why “our candidate is a great guy to have a beer with” has always been a winning message, and some truly wild political memorabilia from America’s history. Digressions include some wonderful, apolitical headlines from the esteemed Daily Mail and how we’re planning to spend the most stressful day of the last four years. This episode was produced by Julia Hava and Eliza McLamb and edited by Allison Hagan. Research assistance from Kylie Finnigan.
