Marble Halls & Silver Screens Podcast ep.22 The Shifting Standards Edition

Covering the connection of DC politics and Hollywood entertainment combining to contribute to our culture.

If it were not for double standards we would not have triple standards. We have 3 speakers this week as RedState front page writer Kimberly Ross (@SouthernKeeks) joins us to discuss the Irish vote to legalize abortion, and to help Sarah fight back on Brad’s patriarchy

It was good to have a pair of ladies on to discuss the fallout of the media and Hollywood moving from saying that all women need to be given renewed respect to supporting calling Ivanka Trump the crudest of names for posing with her child.

Meet Thomas J. Mace-Archer-Mills, an “English” expert on all things British Royalty. He has regaled Britons with his knowledge despite, as the Wall Street Journal discovered, being Tony Muscatello from upstate New York.
