EP. 9 — Are You Voting for Trump or the Gal?

Jena Friedman (Seeso, The Daily Show) and Kaitlin Fontana (The Box, A&E’s Black and White) join Negin for Fake the Nation’s first-ever all-lady roundtable. They punch democracy right in the junk with a conversation about sexism in politics, burkinis, and everyone’s favorite polarizing issue: abortion. Paragon of women’s rights Donald Trump also features heavily. Another FTN first: the live show on September 16th. See Negin, Aasif Mandvi and Aparna Nancherla at The Greene Space in New York City.
