Lauren Ruth Ward spends some time breaking down her song “Must Be Nice,” a fed-up feminist catchall chorale, with host Shawna Potter. They talk about the unique way this song was approached, female masturbation, being born a feminist, songwriting when you’re in a band versus as a solo artist, and what it’s like to work with all women after mostly working with men. Also, Shawna begs her favorite place to eat in Las Vegas to send her free food through the postal service.

The official sponsors of this episode are First Defense Krav Maga, Navarro Hair Design, and Pupcakes and Pawstries.
