The Gist

Beth Newell and Sarah Pappalardo are founding editors of the satirical online women’s magazine Reductress, publisher of such headlines as “8 Sex Positions That Will Blow His Mind and Destroy His Penis.” On The Gist, Newell and Pappalardo discuss their site’s blend of feminism and millennialism. Their new book is called How to Win at Feminism: The Definitive Guide to Having It All—and Then Some! For the Spiel, Americans want their dysfunctional-government-that-isn’t-working to at least show up and pretend to work. Today’s sponsor: Indochino, the company that’s reinventing men’s fashion.
