Tonight, Vanessa of Harry Potter and the Sacred Text partners with the co-hosts of Pantsuit Politics, two women who engage in real conversations that help listeners understand politics, democracy, and the news - while still treating each other like thoughtful human beings. Beth and Sarah take a different approach to the news; their political analysis blends hard facts with important social and cultural undercurrents so you don’t miss the big picture.
And yes! This live event will be held two days after the election. We think it will be the perfect time to come together and join the unique blend of insightful political commentary from Pantsuit Politics with the deep, reflective lens of Harry Potter and the Sacred Text. No matter the outcome of the election, it's bound to be a fun and meaningful night with lots of laughter and community spirit.
