All Rise! Moms At Work is Now in Session

A Republican Judge from Texas and a Liberal Media Exec from New York walk into a bar... err, get on a podcast. Hilarity ensues in Episode 6.
EPISODE TRANSCRIPT

Judge Ann-Marie Carruth of the 72nd District Court in Lubbock County, Texas joins Zabeen Mirza to talk about life as a young, female, Republican judge in Texas (the first female to sit Episodeon the bench in her district in 50 years!), her experiences as a woman on the campaign trail dealing with mudslinging and vicious attacks, the importance of female representation in law and especially in judgeships, and of course, shouldering the monumental work she does while helping two young children through remote school at home. 
Not to mention she knows Judge Roy. Who? Remember the Judge in this brilliant contribution to our lives? Ann-Marie gives us the behind-the-scenes dish on the international cat-filter phenomenon we didn’t know we needed. 

Oh, and Texas Tech or UT Austin? The debate rages on…
