Why isn't there another new Broad for you today? What in the world has been going on with Broads You Should Know the past few weeks?!
The short answer: JURY DUTY. Sara was held captive by the "Justice" System, and now that the case is over she can finally tell all about what it was like to be on a Jury, and why she's feeling pretty messed up about it.
BUT FIRST! We preview all the great new Broads episodes we've got coming down the pipeline including our own "Barbenheimer" with some of your favorite past pod guests, including a special on the mother of Barbie, Ruth Handler, and the truth about what really happened at Los Alamos and the Broad who has been fighting to protect those indigenous lives that were ruined by Oppenheimer's project. There's even more to be excited about in the coming weeks and months, so give it a listen and then come back next week for another Broad You Should Know!
