xpost from GD: Making Sense with Steve Leser this week. We interview Amanda Marcotte on Feminism

The show will air Sunday night at 7pm on BlogTalkRadio at http://www.blogtalkradio.com/lesersense/2013/03/31/making-sense-with-steve-leser--amanda-marcotte-interview and on Monday at 2pm Pacific time on KCAA 1050am radio in Inland Empire California.

This week, we have a special Making Sense with Steve Leser. We interviewed Amanda Marcotte, who writes for Slate and Pandagon and is the author of the books "Get Opinionated" and "It's a Jungle Out There: The Feminist Survival Guide to Politically Inhospitable Environments".

We talked with Amanda about gun control and the setbacks to Federal gun legislation and we discussed feminism issues concentrating on Steubenville and sexual assault topics.

As always we will have our Hall of Fame and Shame for those politicians and prominent individuals who made great sense or shameful nonsense over this past week and if we have time, we will discuss deliberations of the Gay Marriage cases before the Supreme Court.
