We also continue to break down the gender politics&nbsp;of the show, including how the program allows Allison Janney to be tall and powerful, the embarrassing way they dress down Mandy, and talk about how the nuances of the Josh/Donna relationship are beginning to come into focus.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Find Sarah at:&nbsp;<a href="http://sarahwatsonwrites.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">sarahwatsonwrites.com</a></p><br><p>Find Adam at:&nbsp;<a href="http://twitter.com/adamjkarp" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">twitter.com/adamjkarp</a></p><br><p>Patreon:&nbsp;<a href="http://patreon.com/podcastlikeits1989" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">patreon.com/podcastlikeits1989</a></p><br><p>Twitter:&nbsp;<a href="twitter.com/podcastlikeits" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">twitter.com/podcastlikeits</a></p><br><p>Instagram:&nbsp;<a href="http://instagram.com/podcastlike1999" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">instagram.com/podcastlike</a>its</p><br><p>Reddit:&nbsp;<a href="http://reddit.com/r/PodcastLikeIts" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">reddit.com/r/PodcastLikeIts</a></p><br /><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> See <a style='color:grey;' target='_blank' rel='noopener noreferrer' href='https://acast.com/privacy'>acast.com/privacy</a> for privacy and opt-out information.</p>
