The third installment of “Sister Wives Sesh” is (finally!) here. As always, Sister Casey is joined in prayer by wife June Diane Raphael and wife Elizabeth Laime and the topic is of course, Season 17. The gals must grapple with the fact that it seems the first SIXTEEN seasons of Sister Wives were…previews? As Elizabeth said, “The first 16 seasons walked so season 17 could run.” There is so much to process. Christine is fleeing, Meri is a ghost haunting the family, Janelle remains our steady rock and Kody is being driven MAD by Covid 19 while working out of his red convertible.
WARNING: If you or a loved one is suffering from continuing to be on Robin’s side, proceed with caution. Enjoy.

Each year, more than 250,000 children in America are removed from their families by judicial means—and more than 3.5 million children are investigated by child welfare agencies. Most of these children are Black, Indigenous, queer, disabled, and otherwise marginalized. And much of the tens of billions of dollars allotted each year to so-called “child welfare” is spent on separating families. This week’s guest Dorothy Roberts joins Jonathan to discuss how this system operates; who it most harms; and what it has to do with mass incarceration, police brutality, and centuries’ worth of inequities in this country.

Dorothy Roberts is the George A. Weiss University Professor of Law and Sociology at the University of Pennsylvania. She is a contributor to the 1619 Project book and the author of four books, including the best-selling Killing the Black Body. Her path breaking work in law and public policy focuses on urgent social justice issues in policing, family regulation, science, medicine, and bioethics. She has been featured in countless media outlets including The New York Times, New York Magazine, MSNBC, NPR, PBS, Vice News, CNN, ABC, and many others. She lives in Philadelphia.

CW: This episode discusses police violence, bodily harm, and hateful rhetoric.

You can follow Dorothy on Twitter @DorothyERoberts. Her newest book, Torn Apart, is available now.

This week we’re breaking down “Costume Contest”. The office competes in a costume contest to win a questionably impressive coupon book. Meanwhile Michael discovers Darryl went behind his back to give corporate an idea and Jim helps Pam figure out why Danny didn’t ask Pam for another date. The ladies share their appreciation to fans after spending 2 days going through physical Fan Mail, which includes sharing some specialty potato chips with Phil Rosenthal (Everybody Loves Raymond, Naked Lunch). Angela points out all the costume changes, including a certain recycled nurse costume, and inspired by Dwight, Jenna researches if women seek mates who smell like their fathers. We hope you enjoy this episode, and remember, Halloween should be a day in which we honor monsters and not be mad at each other.
