This episode was recorded during Justice Brett Kavanaugh’s confirmation proceedings, prior to his and Dr. Christine Blasey Ford’s hearings. To tackle the problematic issue of women who “ruin” men’s lives and get in the way of their aspirations, I talk with Jennie Spohr who is currently writing a historical novel about Jezebel - our favorite scapegoat.

Jennie is a preacher and author.

This episode is dedicated to Dr. Blasey Ford and the thousands of women who have come forward in the past year of #MeToo to bravely tell their stories privately and publicly. Thank you for your courage. No matter what happens in the coming days, in the telling of your story, you have made room for women to tap into their strength, find their voice, and change our collective narrative.

We believe you and we stand with you.
