Em, Megan, and Harriet unpack the Hulu/FX series A Teacher and try to figure out if the subtlety of Claire's grooming is great for being realistic or so subtle it lends itself to the romanticization of the violence she enacted.

This episode contains mild descriptions of childhood sexual abuse including that which is included in the show. Please practice good self-care while listening.
