Ana Marie Cox, host of With Friends Like These, stopped by the day after the midterm elections to take a break from politics and discuss her cats Luke and Leia. They’ve played a big role in her journey to sobriety, and we get into a candid conversation about why cats make great sponsors and how scooping the litter box is a reason to stay alive. Also! A Cat Quiz with one of the wackiest questions we’ve had yet (it harks back to the Clinton administration), a debate about cats’ governing abilities, and a call for investment in feline spycraft.

If you or someone you know is struggling, cats are great, but don’t forget the folks at the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline are there for you too.
