Under His Eye. Lisa Gerber from 'The Wonder Years' joins us this week to take a deep dive into Hulu's The Handmaid's Tale. We talk about the terrifying relevance of Margaret Atwood's misogynist dystopia in the context of the current administration and oppressive trends in American politics. From the radical religious fundamentalism of the Pilgrims, to the paranoid hysteria of the Salem witch trials to the internalized misogyny of the female Trump voter, by the time we're through you'll be ready for Mayday.
