BonusEp 0.3 - Tamar Avishai interviews The Guerrilla Girls

The Guerrilla Girls, the self-professed "Conscience of the Art
World," are a band of feminist activist artists, who have been
wearing gorilla masks in public and using facts, humor, and
outrageous visuals to expose gender bias, ethnic bias, and
corruption in the art world since the mid-1980s. Join Tamar for a
