AK47 Season 2 Episode 27: Libby Emmons is Back! (She's a feminist, we swear!)

Libby Emmons, writer for places like The Federalist, Quillette, and more, is back! She discusses #metoo, drugs and miniskirts and loads of other inappropriate stuff with Aaron. You can find her writing all over the place. Just google Libby Emmons and you'll find some controversial topic that she's opinionating all over. Also, and this isn't the first time, the explicit tag is on here for a reason. Whenever we tag something with the dreaded E it's because naughty words are spoken. Aaron is just sick of taking the time to put bleeps in when no one really cares that much about naughty words anymore.
