Episode 75: Lessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus

It's a book week AND it's been one of the best yet! The bell has wrung, we're seated at our desks with pen and paper and Bonnie Garmus is ready to school us on some chemistry. But more importantly, Bonnie provides a glimpse into the history of gender inequality and guides us, men with natural privilege, through how we can be advocates and allies in the fight for equality. Spoiler alert...we can't get enough of this book and our core cast of characters. Obviously starting with our wonderful and amazing protagonist Elizabeth Zott. And how could we forget about the dynamic duo of Mads and a Zott's best friend 6:30. We discuss the setting, the supporting cast, and our dream tv hosting gigs. But above all else, we discuss the social and moral implications of the actions of those in the book and of people in the world today. We have unending gratitude and appreciation for all of you who provided us with perspective for this book/episode and reminded us of the tools that we all possess to help and assist in this ongoing fight.
