Hello, I'm Zeke and welcome to the Zekely podcast. Let's talk Pennsylvania. The guest I have today is a veteran, manages Medicaid funds for adults with disabilities and is the chair of the Crawford County Democratic Committee in Northwestern Pennsylvania. She is a fierce political operative who focuses on building political power for the poor and working class. Thank you so much for being here, Lindsey Scott.

For years, I’ve knocked thousands of doors all over Pennsylvania and poured my heart and soul into supporting candidates and causes that make a difference—from local school board races to national elections. The personal is political, and I take every election in Pennsylvania personally.

Where the mainstream media has failed you, I will give you truth and independence. You’ll hear from Democratic leaders, candidates, and change-makers who are working to improve the health of the Commonwealth, and it won’t be boring as hell.

No matter where you are, I’ll meet you with hope and a plan to make your community better one day at a time. Welcome to the Zekely Podcast. Let’s talk Pennsylvania.

Thank you for having me.

Absolutely. The first and last time I ever saw you in person was at the Biden rally. It was actually Jill Biden right outside of

and it was really good to see you I mean cuz we I Know there was a lot of connecting through social media leading up to all these rallies and it was always so great to see these people in the flesh So it was really nice. Hopefully we won't have to wait too long to see each other again Although we are on opposite sides of the state

that's great to do too. We'd see each other on socials, but...

Well, thank you so much for being here again. We're going to have a lot of fun, play some games, get to know all about you. So you ready to go?

yeah.

All right. Well, while we were coordinating for this recording, you asked me what rating my podcast was, and I said it was rated R. So we're going to play a game where I read lines from movies or a show, and you're going to guess which movie or show it's from. All right.

this is gonna kind of set the tone for this particular podcast episode. Yippee-ki-yay, motherfucker!

shit, watch me draw a blank.

I might be actually drawing a blank.

I'll give you little bit of a hint. There's a lot of controversy over whether or not the movie is a Christmas movie.

⁓ die hard.

Die Hard, that's right. Die Hard, John McClain, Bruce Willis, famous line. There you go, that's the first one. All right, here's another one. Pardon my French Rooney, but you're an asshole.

Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.

my gosh, now I'm gonna need another clue because I recall it, it's in my head. But I...

⁓ I guess

the only clue I'll give you is playing hooky.

Yeah, Ferris Bueller's Day Off. was Cameron. It Cameron doing the prank call to the principal. ⁓ All right, here's... That's a classic.

it's Ferris Bueller.

Yes!

Yep. I love that movie.

All right, last one. Tits up!

This one is a show. It's not a movie.

It's a timepiece, a timepiece show.

I have no idea.

I don't, I don't watch it.

I have not made it. I have not made it to it.

I feel like

I was hesitant to watch it because I felt like I would feel like I was personally attacked on like five different levels.

well, I mean there are definitely some serious undertones to the show, but in general it's very lovely. So I recommended The Marvelous Miss Maisel.

I will have to definitely gird myself mentally and go for it. Coming off of maybe a win year, I'll hit up the whole series at once.

Mm-hmm. Yeah.

Okay,

good, you can binge it, no problem.

Can you give a brief explanation of the organizational structure of the Crawford County Democratic Committee and how you were elected as chairperson?

Well, sure.

Mm-hmm.

Mm-hmm.

And they were pro-choice and believed racism was real.

and we're organizing for more progressive values as Republicans.

Mm-hmm.

Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.

But basically, the night of the first impeachment vote, I was like, ooh, I've taken foreign policy courses. And one of my major portions of

course study was specifically on the

viability of and safety of Ukraine for stability

I had a partner and it was just like everything from economics and everything else. was like, well, I know that what that is is illegal. And so I had been doing my due diligence. I was like, well, there's nothing on the Dem side that I don't disagree with. I'm just prioritizing them differently because I care a lot about foreign policy and national security.

Yeah. Yeah.

Mm-hmm.

And then I looked at the rules and in the state of Pennsylvania, you just basically disenfranchise yourself if you are not a registered Democrat or Republican for school boards and for just even getting involved with candidates early enough.

Yeah.

Mm-hmm.

That's right, it's true.

And that's how I started just showing up to

my local Democratic Party office, just random meetings. I was like, well, guess I can, it doesn't, I'm not a member. Like I'm a registered, you know, Democrat at that time. But I was just like, what happens if I just start showing up? So I was trying to get a mayor elected for my city and she won.

Mm-hmm.

Mm-hmm. Yeah.

and I just started showing up. And then I just started talking to the chair at the time. And she was like,

I think I'm going to be done this year. You know, you're really into this and you've asked me a ton of questions. Do you want it?" And she was like willing to like convince the precinct committee people to just vote for me.

That next meeting, it reorganized. They elected me as chair, actually. And then a month later, I am in my first state committee meeting with every elected new chair in state, and there was like over 50 new

Mm-hmm.

And it was the governor's race and Fetterman's race. So

yeah.

Four weeks later, I would be giving my first speech ever in front of 2,000 people for Feterman's comeback from his stroke.

Mm-hmm. Yeah.

They're like, oh, Crawford, you're going to do you want to speak? And I'm like, what?

That's a big deal. Yeah.

I mean, it sounds like you went like completely in the opposite direction. Well, you were kind of in a direction towards the Democratic Party. And then you realized after you saw this blatant act of treason, essentially a high crime and misdemeanor that that the rub, yeah, that the Rubicon had been crossed, essentially. Right. Yeah. And I. Yeah, just the first one. And then.

Mm-hmm.

Yeah. The first one.

Absolutely. The first time. There's the first one. then, yeah, and then by

the second when I was like, wow, got other people committing crimes for you.

Yeah. Mm-hmm.

you realize that the Democratic Party actually more aligned with your values and what you want to accomplish.

Oh yeah, absolutely. And it was funny because I kind of did it, like I said, kind of the opposite too, where I was like, okay, well, I want to take active leadership in

often and as effectively as I

Yeah.

here, like my county has like 28 % registered Democrats. So I couldn't make it worse.

Mm-hmm.

I guess that's true.

And I was like,

I might as well just like start swinging, just start swinging. And I'm like, I don't swing at everything. I don't swing at everyone. But what I do instead is I really, I talk about issues before I talk about the politics of it. Like I don't fan girl our candidates because in that sense, they'll always disappoint.

Yeah, I guess that's true. Yeah.

Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.

Because they're people.

Well, I'm really happy that you've,

bolstered up your local Democratic committee. mean, committee people are the lifestream of local Democratic committees because they actually go out and represent their constituents and bring back information to the Democratic committee and help get good people elected locally. So I what an accomplishment that you've had so far. And I hope you keep it up. We need people like you all over Pennsylvania.

so tell me about your obsession with gingers.

Well, I have some family members that are gingers. My husband is a very, very tall ginger.

now my son, he's got a head of thick, curly, auburn hair, dimples and just like this periwinkle blue eyes that it dimples in like the little butt chin.

On the head.

Mm-hmm.

Yeah.

it's all not fair, and he's also very

it takes a it takes a pretty good looking person pull off that the red hair. And so I appreciate it greatly when they do.

Mm-hmm

You appreciate it. Well, we're gonna play a game called name that ginger. Okay,

Bye.

I'm going to describe someone and you're try and tell me who they are. Okay So from train spotting to Star Wars this actor has captivated audiences with his wide range of roles his portrayal of Obi-Wan Kenobi cemented his place in pop culture history while his performances in films like Moulin Rouge and dr. Sleep showcased his versatility

I love

starts with an E.

It

I adore him

I'm getting you today.

You are.

⁓

terrible at a trivial pursuit, by the way.

Well, it's Ewan McGregor. There you go. There you go. All here's another one. Known for his riveting performances in films such as X-Men and 12 Years a Slave, this actor has become one of the most compelling actors of his generation.

yes, because I was gonna say Ethan and I'm like, it's not right. It's not right.

And you're killing me today. You are. You're like, hey, Oh, is that bad news?

I really am. Michael... Michael Fassbender.

Yep. Yep. Another ginger. Come

I mean, he's a ginger according to the ginger-ometer.

Here's the last one. A legend. This actor has graced the screen in iconic films such as Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, The Sting, and All the President's Men.

You're killing me today. This is bad. Like, like I'm going to get you back with it. So,

I am.

That's fine. You're just gonna have to have me on

your podcast and give me really hard trivia questions.

I was told I have

to have one and also like I've got somebody who wants to do one and I'm like, it would be so inappropriate. Like we wouldn't even be allowed to talk about politics because of how messy it would be. ⁓ he is beautiful.

I don't know. It would be raw and real. Robert Redford.

Robert Redford's a good looking man.

still is. Well, these are the gingers I brought to the quiz game.

god.

Mmm.

Better luck next time.

you served in the Army for eight years. First of all, thank you for your service. What made you want to join the Army?

Mm-hmm. Well, thanks.

so 9-11 happened when I was walking into AP honors English. And so the teacher turned it on. And he's like, this is going to be the biggest thing that happens the entire time that you're alive. So we're going to watch it. And you know, he's like, some of you are 18. And some of you are going to be like all the rest of you are going to be this year. So

Yeah.

This is gonna be the rest of your life.

my father was in oil and gas management. my mother, one of her first of her family to go to college to.

and they, they had built up my confidence and then I didn't tell them and I went and joined the army right before I went to college. And I went and joined the reserves, but we were in the midst of a war. And,

wow.

Mm-hmm.

this is my dad's, who was Republican, exact words.

He's like, I didn't mean that. And I was like, what do mean? Like, and then I was then I was full of my own shit. So I was just like, no, I can I can do it. I mean, like physically, I can do it. Like, what's the what's the issue? And he was just like, it's not a place for you. And I was like, why is it not a place for me? I'm allowed to be it. Like, I'm allowed to go like I'm going to pass, get through basics. What's the problem? He's like,

Mm-hmm.

Mm-hmm.

Mm-hmm.

Mm-hmm.

Yeah.

It's not a place for you.

what was it

like to hear that?

I did not explicitly understand what he meant. And then, ⁓ he goes, well, I don't want to, it's too late now and, ⁓ you're going to find.

Did he serve? Did Did he serve in the military?

And he was so mad at me.

So he had a bunch of friends that did in Vietnam and my dad's draft card got pulled.

Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.

you know, and he was supposed to report three days before the war ended for Vietnam. And he is one of those pro-choice Republicans because he said that he had to drive more than one pregnant high school friend of his to get abortions because their boyfriends died in Vietnam. And they were going to have a rural life of poverty if they

⁓ wow. Wow.

wow.

Mm-hmm.

were forced to carry a child without a husband.

And then I got deployed actually to Baghdad for the second year of the war.

And I got a phone call on my Nokia fucking cell phone to report and that I was getting orders for 548 days to to Baghdad. And I was like,

wow.

wow, that's crazy. So it sounds like the impetus to join was 9-11. And then...

Mm-hmm.

Yes. And

I did think it was going to be the defining moment of my generation. And I thought I might go into some type of journalism at some point

Yeah.

or law. I didn't think that that would be necessarily a bad thing to have like personal direct experience and,

If everybody can do it, then I'm certain I could.

Oops.

Well, I mean,

I think you did it out of reasons to serve your country, obviously, to try and do something after a massive attack on the country that you loved.

⁓ yes.

And

be a part of it and not be left out of the sacrifice that other people were going to make for me. It was more of like a sense of obligation of like if everyone's going to go, what makes me think I'm okay being left out of it? And yeah, it truly now did everybody serve and no, but was it a defining point in anybody near my age group? Absolutely.

Mm-hmm, yeah.

Mm-hmm.

Yeah.

Mm-hmm. Yeah.

well, thank you so much for serving though. Really, it is a big deal, nonetheless.

Well, thanks for being

a doctor because we need those.

I'll keep trying.

Well, you live in the Erie Meadville area,

Absolutely.

Have you frequented Presque Isle in the summertime?

Yes,

Well, I went to Presque Isle when I lived in Erie, when I went to medical school at LECOM So that was a place I used to go with my wife. It was very nice. But we're going to play a game called Mistake by the Lake, OK, which is what we often called Erie. Sometimes we were up there. No offense to Erie. It's a lovely place. But it is what

We called it and it'll be another trivia game, which you have to get these right this time, okay? Maybe this time. Okay. What is the name of the diner that greets you at the entrance to Presque Isle?

We'll see. We'll see.

starts with an S. Mmm, Sara's

You are correct. Very good. Yeah, I mean, we would go there all the time when it was open and they had the curly fries and we'd dip it in the ice cream and it was great. I my wife is an ice cream fiend, so it was a very cute place. So yeah, Sarah's very good. Which famous amusement park located in Erie features a wooden roller coaster named the Blue Streak?

Yay!

Well, so the blue streak used to be in Conyot Lake, which is like six miles from me here in Meadville. Well, I believe it was always there and that was like the oldest wooden roller coaster, I think in the state and it got taken apart by whoever bought it recently and it was like, it's like huge people condemn it. But Waldemar is right on the edge and it has a bunch of

Okay.

so they moved it.

Okay.

There you go. Yep. Yep.

different types of roller coasters. My kid is very angry for anyone ever suggesting that just because he fits the height requirement, by the way, I was not for it, that he does the ravine flyer because it's too rickety And frankly, even though he's tall, I don't think he has like the neck for hardcore like

Mm-hmm.

Okay, yeah.

Those

wooden, I know, well those wooden roller coasters, you can feel every rivet when you go around those turns. ⁓

Yeah, and just because he's tall enough, because he's huge, does not mean

like his bones have fused all the way together.

You need to have solid bone structure to go on those roller coasters those I'll make you you'll you'll you'll feel it in the hips the next day

I mean.

I'm pretty sure, didn't he have a neck bomb on?

He did. He had an explosive collar locked to his neck and it detonated. And there was a whole documentary about it that was called Evil Genius. And I didn't even know about that story until I moved to Erie. And then my wife and I watched it and we were like, holy shit, like this actually

Let me tell you.

I know it's a bizarre story. If anyone's, anyone listening or watching, have to look up Evil Genius and watch it. It's, it's a really weird story.

And even back then,

like things like today, what would people say if somebody in like local news was like a dude with a neck bomb?

Mm-hmm.

They're like, this isn't the craziest thing I've today.

I know, it's crazy. That's absolutely crazy. Well, thank you for playing Mistake by the Lake with me. You did pretty good on those. Good job.

Well,

like the local ones, like, I don't know, maybe I'm just like a little bit more prepared for them because I have to deal with local more often. Mm-hmm.

Yeah, you're a local yokel. All

you are the secretary of both the Rural and Veterans Caucus. What kind of advocacy do you participate in with those

Mm-hmm.

they're led by and organized by,

committee members, which either means like, like a state committee person, or the chair of a county. And those are that's it. So like, Crawford's got two, some places, I think Philly taps out at 50.

Okay

we have like actually monthly meetings outside of state committee where

we invite constituency like specialists in.

to talk about messaging for local chairs, because a lot of the time in these rural places, we lose a lot. So it's like how to lose by less so that we can win statewide.

Mm-hmm.

Got it. So you provide a organizational arena and a way to gather information from people in these rural communities and veterans within your communities. You can help kind of lobby for them when necessary to elected officials locally, statewide, and then just come together as a group and help move things forward for the Democratic Party, essentially.

Yeah, yeah, a lot of times we are the only people doing any of that work before there are paid staff and in lieu of paid staff one of the biggest things that I try to hit up really hard

Mm-hmm.

trying to emphasize that we have elections in Pennsylvania every six months. There is no break. And so like,

Mm-hmm. Yeah. Yeah.

it some some years we can think about it like, is every weekend gonna be co opted or is every other weekend?

And it's it's

unpaid, for sure. And people like are very confused by that too. They think that like, party members or like, committee members or chairs are paid and I'm like,

Mm-hmm. Yeah.

No, it's all volunteer. It's all volunteer. Yeah, I mean, but these are important. These are important civic engagement activities. And also you're allowing for representation. know, veterans, people who live in rural areas of Pennsylvania, they need representation. And so these caucuses give them that place to do that. I'm really grateful that you're spearheading those organizations. You're welcome.

⁓ yeah. Yeah, it's your spare time.

Well, thank you. I try my best.

well, I'll tell you what, I'm gonna let you shine now, okay? Because we're gonna play Tank or Yank, okay? Army Edition Tank meaning true, yank meaning false, During Desert Storm, some Abrams crews ran out of fuel before they ever saw the enemy. Tank or Yank? True or false?

Probably tank. Yeah, you know, we, our logistics, as a logistics specialist that I was, we fucking suck sometimes. So, and that's how we find out that we suck actually is when shit fails.

Yep, that is true. That is true.

Yeah.

Yeah, well, you're.

Yeah, well, that's true. Some units had to halt due to fuel consumption rates. What about this one? The interior of an Abrams tank has a built-in coffee warmer near the gunner's seat. Tanker Yank.

I would say Yank because that would be awful if it caught fire for anything, but then they also think that they're indestructible and I wouldn't doubt there was a jerry rig of a coffee warmer inside it because...

Well, you're correct. It is false. There's no coffee warmer, although soldiers have been known to improvise near exhaust

People in the Army don't care.

here's the last one. The M1 Abrams uses jet fuel, not diesel fuel. Tanker Yank. That is correct. That is true. It runs on JP8, a jet fuel which makes it versatile but also thirsty.

Probably tank.

Thanks.

Well, thank you for playing Tank or Yank. You did a great job on that one.

Thank you. See, like the military, the local are good, but like pop culture, I need a brush.

Yeah, pop

culture. You'll work on that.

There are a lot of people who are upset about what's going on in this country, as I'm sure you are aware. But you yourself are doing something constructive with those emotions. So how would you approach someone who is disaffected with

democracy right now.

I did a little speech

it was really hard to write. And it was for women, it was a women's organization, it was for like Women's March and I was trying to do a partisan compare and contrast for veterans and women and I had to go like hyper specific as an example.

Mm-hmm.

and I had to talk about.

like my personal experience with, in front of like 700 people, sexual violence in the military. And then I had to discuss what the rates of sexual violence and domestic abuse were in the military. Last time Trump was in office and the fact that he had been adjudicated in civil,

Mm-hmm.

that he was to hit the New York term, technically a rapist.

Yeah,

the judge clarified that he was convicted of rape.

Yes.

and a whole bunch of different types of sexual violence and like change the law. And then also make it so that your first level military commander couldn't decide even though you accused someone of rape, that you're the problem, that you're crazy, chapter her out because she's a psycho garbage and keep him because he's a war fighter that's necessary for the mission. And then when I described that, you just watched the people's

Mm-hmm.

face fall. And I'm like, when

Yeah, yeah. I mean, that's really powerful

for me. Just hearing you talk about that. First of all, I'm very sorry you experienced that. Regardless if it was in the military or in the general population, that's terrible. mean, it's terrible. I can totally see how seeing the type of leadership that was, is, and could be, that that would set the tone for the service that you are in.

yeah.

Yeah, these are the people that are gonna have power and to give them and give them that power over other people in the best of circumstances is so incredibly bad. And that was before the notion of Pete Hegseth, as I like to say. I know he's so terrible. He's so terrible. I'm like,

Yeah.

⁓ god, he's terrible. He's just, he's so terrible.

I have said, and I've said it many times, and I don't mind beer at all, but he is the DUI hire. He is the whiskey leaks. He is the worst secretary Pete that we've ever had.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, he's, I mean...

Yeah, he's pretty

It sounds like the message is people are going to get hurt if you don't do something. You know, for people who are disaffected and don't want to participate in democracy, just know that when people get in power and you don't try and stop those people, there are going to be others who are hurt by that.

And for you in the military, having a megalomaniac, a convicted rapist, someone who does not stand up for people who are being marginalized, more people are going to get hurt. And it might even be you. And so you need to pay attention and try and help other people. It obviously shouldn't have to happen to you for it to matter, right? But it did happen to you. And Joe Biden changed the laws so that it wouldn't happen to others in the military. And now we have someone in office who

Probably, if not already, has gotten rid of all those protections, I'm sure.

Oh, yes, they have recently, I think it's been like three days since some of them have been on paper rolled back. Oh yeah, pretty bad.

Mm-hmm Yeah, which which which just

means more things are going to be swept under the rug sexual assault is going to happen and Justice will not be served

Yep.

So they just came out with the last, I want to say the last surveys because it takes like, and I say this in my speeches, I say like, it takes a while because Joe Biden had to be president and then he had to get through the IR study. And then he had to change it by executive order and change it the right way and put these protections in place. And then it took a long for like the programs to start.

Mm-hmm. Yeah.

Mm-hmm.

Yeah.

By now

we're looking year three, and then I'm like, and so they just got the study back from last year, and the last year and the year before had a drastic decline in sexual assaults. And next year that will not occur.

And now

they're going to go back up, but we're not going to know it all because they're not going to study it anymore.

Yep, they're not going to study it or the studies done are going to be so far behind the elections, you know, because they're done kind of annually

Yeah. Mm-hmm. Yeah, Mm-hmm.

that the voting public is going to vote before them.

Yeah.

Right, right. Well.

thank you for sharing that painful story. I really do hope that when people listen to you talk about that, that it changes hearts and minds, and that it gets them to reengage with democracy, because it's important. We all have a responsibility to do that.

for the last 14 years, you've been a program specialist in the Arc of Crawford County, which is an organization that manages a diverse case load of individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

Did you find it rewarding working for Arc of Crawford County?

Yes, immensely because I did not just the direct support, but now I train them as well like with my people. But I'm a case manager. So I have the same and I've had the same 16 people like that I manage their stuff for like the last eight years.

Mm-hmm.

Yeah.

I have dealt with social security with them. I have dealt with family issues with them. They don't have a lot of people necessarily in their lives and all of my people live on their own in the community. None of my people are part of a program where they have 24 seven supervision. Three of my people have their own children that have their own intellectual and mental health issues. So

Okay.

Okay.

I deal a lot with their health insurance and the pediatrics and I deal a ton with social security and getting their children's services and after school care, things like that, that are just, if I didn't personally experience it, well now I get to see on the bottom floor what people in the most abject poverty actually that are trying to live on their own have to deal with. And a lot of my people have diabetes.

a lot of the time it's about planning for them so that when they start to lose their faculties, that they have a healthcare plan since they don't have family, a lot of them, that they have somewhere safe to be and still get to be a member of the community that they've lived in for their whole life.

And it's kind of really, it's...

It's not sad because it makes you have to fight every day, some form of bureaucracy anyways. So whether you're Republican or not, like you're here for the fight every day.

Mm-hmm. What?

Yeah,

I mean, it's such a wonderful service that you provide and must like so so rewarding. So I'm glad that you're doing that for your community.

What gives you hope?

The fact that a lot of the people that are showing up to events or to protest have never been to one before. And yeah, a lot of them locally and stuff are people that are retired and have time, but we have an aging population here and some people just have not been outwardly vocal about their role and stuff like that. And so I feel like it's super important for me.

Mm-hmm.

to give those people an opportunity to meet or be a part of as high up as they can get a hold of so that they can feel really consistently

Mm-hmm.

And that time is the time to make sure that they realize.

we want you in the process. Don't leave now. Like that wasn't it. There are so many more things. And if, if I continuously know that I can rely on you to show up to think anything that helps me so much more than people even realize, even realize. So, so like

that part of them realizing

that how low the level of escalation can be. All you have to do is show up to one meeting one time or show up and grab a beverage. We have like our organizational meeting, but then two weeks later, like the first Thursday of each month we have

at a local restaurant, we have just like a social grab a drink and make sure you introduce yourself.

Mm-hmm.

Yeah.

and know who they are talking to? Go to the hat. Go to anything.

but you're seeing new faces at those events too.

Yes, and I'm getting more phone calls and text messages

mean, it's that that would give me hope if I saw more people showing up to rallies and saw more people showing up to local events as well. So that is great that that's that's happening. That's good.

Yeah. And

then half of the people that show up a lot of times are new, never been anywhere before, or haven't been for so long that they forgot what it was like.

That's great. Well, we need a resurgence of civic engagement, so that's good to hear.

Well, my last question for you is, what plans do you have to get yourself through these next few years?

I should probably show you what's right behind me.

Yeah, let me see it.

What are we looking at here?

There's a theme.

Power is

okay Power Ranger and

And by the way,

I can wear that. That's... human sized. Mm-hmm.

The pink Power Ranger, okay.

What else we got going on here? Game of Thrones, oh, RBG. Okay, I see that.

done

Dark Phoenix. So.

Uh huh. We have a lot of power, we have a

lot of powerful minds, powerful people, strength. Got it. Yeah, all. Uh

Yeah. Well, we've got She-Ra.

And also there's the donkey and the strong chick from

from

And, you know, we've got Wonder Woman. Yep. And then Hermione Granger.

Wonder Woman, gotta have Wonder Woman.

So there's a theme.
