Sn 8 Ep 2

Apparently GenX Women are "Queenagers" now. Oh HELL, no. This week on the podcast we take a crowbar to the label and everything behind it: corporate age discrimination, tokenism vs diversity, Hollywood's woman issue & how they are dealing with it, and the media's habit of "discovering" women over 50 who've been here the whole time. Plus meet our (not-so) new guest co-host who you will be hearing a lot more from. For the love of Pat Benatar, don't even think of skipping this one.
