This week, host Jane Marie talks to NYT journalist Danielle Friedman about something WE DON'T TALK ABOUT. Menopause.

Well, actually, around here we do. Quite a bit. Because it's incredibly important and an awful part of our medical system (current and historical) that both doctors and, subsequently patience, know so little about women's health in general and menopause specifically. So, let's ALL dig in to this rich and interesting conversation... right fellas?
