The Waves: Why Sarah Palin Won’t Go Away

On this week’s episode of The Waves, we dig into why Sarah Palin is
still around - and if you should be paying attention. Slate senior
producer Cheyna Roth is joined by Slate senior writer Christina
Cauterucci to talk about Christina’s time spent in Alaska where
Palin is trying to make a political comeback in a tight race for
Alaska’s lone Congressional seat. Later in the show, Christina
explains why it’s necessary to keep talking about Palin after all
these years. In Slate Plus, Cheyna and Christina talk about whether
Sheryl Sandberg’s abortion rights donation to the ACLU is
feminist.  Recommendations: Christina: Cleanness by Garth
