This week on The Essentials, Mallory, Esra, and Gina get lost in the history of Mrs. America. Mallory loves a good character study — and this show delivered with well-developed characters, from Phyllis Schlafly (Cate Blanchett) to Shirley Chisholm (Uzo Aduba); Gina and Esra agree: Tracey Ullman wowed as Betty Friedan. Thanks for being a subscriber to our podcast! In case you missed them, check out our first three episodes: Normal People, The West Wing, and What We Do in the Shadows.
