About Two Broads Talking Politics
Kelly and Sophy are two progressive feminist Midwestern moms who interview candidates, activists and authors across the country. The #VoteHerIn series is a joint production of Two Broads and Rebecca Sive, author of the book, Vote Her In: Your Guide to Electing Our First Woman President, and influential women’s political advocate.
The podcast can be found on Apple Podcasts (itunes), Google Play, Stitcher, Spotify, iHeartRadio, SoundCloud, and anywhere podcasts are found.
Kelly and Sophy were inspired by the Women's March to do something, and the podcast focuses on helping listeners figure out where we go from here.
Inspired by Rebecca’s book, Vote Her In: Your Guide to Electing Our First Woman President, the #VoteHerIn podcast series is a joint project of Two Broads and Rebecca. The purpose of the series is to inspire and inform activists campaigning to increase American women’s political power, showcasing women’s advocates and office-holders who guide and lead the movements to elect ever-more women and advance women’s equality.
