Former House candidate Susanna Gibson joins Michael and Lauren for her first-ever podcast appearance, discussing the Washington Post story and the Republican smear campaign that brought her race under scrutiny--all from videos that she never consented to being recorded, re-hosted, and distributed years after they were streamed.
They discuss her support for Delegate Irene Shin's bill to crack down on non-consensual distribution of intimate images--so-called "revenge porn," which does real damage to both private citizens and prospective candidates, especially as the prevalence of nude images has become more common.

Plus, some tidbits from the Speaker's Black and White Gala, the Virginia Capital Correspondents' Association Banquet, and some takeaways on crisis communications from both Lauren and Susanna.
