HH51: The ASSes in DisASSter ASSistance

This is an episode YOU should listen to even if you hate my jokes! This is all about federal disaster assistance programs and what you should know if you ever are unfortunate enough to suffer damage to your home and/or personal property due to a natural or manmade disaster. Learn about FEMA aid and SBA loans (yes, even if you don't own a business!) Plus, we have useful insurance tips for all homeowners. 

After that is a great discussion with Amanda of the podcasts Amanda's Picture Show A-Go-Go and Culture Pop A-Go-Go. Topics include the documentary "RBG," Saudi Arabian sexist filmmaking, and more! 

 

One more note: I had to make some tough editing choices in order to get the length of this episode to a reasonable point. Included in the patron version of this episode, but unfortunately not here, is the discussion of attorney Lee Nation. He was the primary appellate counsel in the Missouri murder jury case (where women were being systematically excluded in Jackson County). Ruth Bader Ginsburg was second chair when they litigated this in the Supreme Court.
