The hosts take a deep dive into the history of Your Lady and mine, the Blessed Virgin Mary (aka Our Lady of Perpetual Sorrow, aka Star of the Sea, aka Queen of Angels, and and and…). Steph makes some shocking discoveries about where Original Sin supposedly derives from (hint: it has to do with men, but don’t worry, it’s still women’s fault). Anne draws parallels between the Blessed Virgin and Dolly Parton. The hosts both admit to having a soft spot for Mary, minus most of the virginity stuff. 

COLLECTION BASKET: This week we remind you it’s always a good time to support women’s health and bodily autonomy with a donation to Planned Parenthood.
