Hi, Should-Heads! We're joined by Allison Dickson (the Steve Martin of our podcast!) and we're discussing "good for her!" books about women who are righting wrongs in various ways (some of those ways are violent). In light of everything going on right now, even being who you are can be a revolutionary act.
