This week, our friends at the feminism and politics podcast The Waves crafted an episode all about women and the midterm elections. Hosts Christina Cauterucci and Hanna Rosin are joined by Senior Political Reporter for Glamour Celeste Katz, and D.C. State Democratic Committeewoman Latifa Lyles to discuss how the ways women run for office have changed, if women really make better leaders, and how female politicians are depicted in the media.
