Satellite Sisters

THIS EPISODE IS A REPLAY FROM MARCH 2018. We’ve got two qualified candidates right here for Secretary of State. Lian is a citizen diplomat who works on the International Women of Courage program. Julie lived in Russia, has been to North Korea and seems to know quite a bit about poisons, nerve agents and the South China Sea. Together they host Satellite Sisters Talk TV, a recap of the CBS drama Madame Secretary so they are totally read in on the latest global hotspots. On today’s podcast, we propose an innovative and historic job sharing plan where they both take over after Rexit. Plus, Julie visits the new Ladies First exhibit in Dallas and has a close encounter that seems like fate. Here’s a link to the podcast that goes with the Ladies First exhibit. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ladies-first/id1355861946
