We start with shop talk and roll right into it! 

Will this be a defining moment when the #MAGA spell is broken and people flee the current Republican party? Will #MTG rise in the ranks to break the conservative cock block they've had on allowing women to truly lead? Is all this a giant puppet string pulling for us to stop paying attention to the crashing economy?

Welcome to the Parlour with Lori and Lisa, Season 5, Ep. 1. We were taking a little break, but are back and ready to bring you regularly scheduled episodes. Thank you for joining us! 

Okay, so the episode title needs a little context. We were talking about how other women podcasters curse way more than we do and, while Lisa is pretty good about dropping an occasional f-bomb, Lori thinks we should let it rip a little more! We're sick of shite, too and nothing expresses it more than a strategically placed f-bomb! 

We love you, Maya Rudolph and we recommend her show, Loot!
