• 24: Pre-Season Six Catch-Up

  Like a lot of you, we weren’t sure we were ready for another season of The Handmaid’s Tale, but going back through the events of the series for this recap, we were reminded of two things: 1. This show has moved on from the first couple of season when the characters couldn’t do much to react to their situation, and into a place where they’re fighting back, and that feels good. And 2. It’s just such a good show, and despite the current situation, it’s easy to get lost in. And we want to know how it ends!So join Wendy and Jason as we refresh you on everything that’s happened up until now, and explain how we’ll be approaching the podcast given what’s happening in the United States and in the world right now. Nolite te bastardes carborundorum.Links:Take action against the Trump administration: Indivisble.org Come join our private Handmaid’s Tale FB group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/thtmaydayNext up: The Handmaid’s Tale S6E1-3 “Train”, “Exile”, & “Devotion”.

• 23: Let's Not Have The Handmaid's Tale for Real

  Hey all, after a two-year break (!) we wanted to talk to you about how we think the world has become more like The Handmaid’s Tale since last we spoke, and what we can do to fight back, stop things from going further in that direction, and even reverse what’s already happened. Podcastica doesn’t usually get political, but among all our podcast listeners we think (and hope) that you’re the right audience to hear this. If you have thoughts about anything we said, we want to hear.Write to us at [email protected]. Links:Check whether you’re registered to vote, register if you’re not, and learn how to vote in your state: vote.org Donate: actblue.com or votesaveamerica.com/donate Volunteer: votesaveamerica.com/volunteer or votefwd.com Thank you all!Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
