SSInterview: Beth Thomas Cohen May 13, 2016

Show notes

Is your so-called put-together life killing you? Fashion publicist, working mom and straight talker Beth Thomas Cohen has advice for women who want to drop the act and get real. Lian Dolan of the Satellite Sisters interviews Beth as part of our occasional interview series. Drop the Act, It’s Exhausting! is one woman’s call to all women to embrace the imperfections in their lives and to air their “improper” thoughts about relationships, love, sex, parenting, careers, self-esteem, and self-image. By no longer being ashamed or apologetic about how they "really feel,” women will become more aware of who they are and more accepting of themselves and one another. With wit, candor, and refreshingly blunt observations, Beth Thomas Cohen proves herself the prime example of how freeing, fun, and unifying it can be to drop the act and live a not so put-together life.

Julie has a theory on why Brooklyn is, in fact, the center of the universe and it has to do with a Pizza box made out of ... PIZZA! this sounds both intriguing and cargo-licious.

Madam Secretary Recap Season 2, Ep 19 Apr 21, 2016

Show notes

This episode called Ghost Detainees starts off like any typical Madam Secretary...with breakfast. The McCord family, dressed in tasteful blues, greens and greys is eating toast in their charming Goergetown kitchen. Liveley banter abounds about Mom’s big speech at the UN, mocking mom’s love for her horse Buttercup, and of course, the eternal relevance of Hello Kitty— But by the end of the show, Henry had ratted out his OWN WIFE to Amnesty International Can you say, 'Passive Aggressive Henry?" In terms of storyline, we go back to Russia with Madam Secretary working on a coalition to stop the terrorists El-Shahib and Henry working to get answers from the terrorists Dinesh’s wife HJHJHJHJHJ. But then the stories intertwine and more deals with the devil are made—or in this case, the Ghost of of Dmitri Petrov appears in the form of Dmitri’s sick sister who is back in Russia and arrested. Remember, young Dmitri that Henry recruited and then abandoned in Moscow? Well, Henry feels really bad, it’s making him unhappy and crazy and, frankly, kinda unsexy as he snaps at his wife over his work failing. In the middle of the show, we had some excellent DC-speaks with phrases tossed about like: The Shark Technique The Human Cost But ultimately, Henry is OUT OF LINE. As if it's not bad enough that Buttercup needs to be put down—Henry busts his own wife to Amnesty International. Whaaa? Other points to discuss: Daisy’s work out gear Bathrobes at the ready at the weekend house See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
