Search for the title "We the People."

It will certainly be available to stream, and likely the audio will be available as an episode of her podcast.

What a treasure.

I tried to watch the rest but there were more commercial breaks than actual show so I turned it off. I get they need the ad revenue but it was ridiculous.

I was able to fast-forward through the commercials.

So, there!

I found it a good watch. Snyder is a better writer than TV personality, though.

world's oldest groupie. Her Massachusetts home is less than an hour from where I live and rumor has it she's been in the area over the years. I know a fellow who, many, many years ago before she hit the big time, was a guest on a radio show she hosted out of Northampton (I think). He wasn't at all surprised by her success.

She was impressive and very well researched. She had a two hour show 5 days a week but it seemed like she could have used even more time.
