In This Episode
Mother Dearest
It’s the mother of all episodes! Erin Ryan and the ever-electable Alyssa Mastromonaco discuss this week’s news– from new maternal mortality legislation to what’s happening in Georgia. Then, Tien Tran, Grace Parra and special guest Jane Marie join in-studio to discuss moms– what they’ve gone through to bring us into the world and what they’ve taught us. And finally, a very special Hysteria moms edition of the hills we’ll die on.
