Everyone knows that one never, under pain of death, imprisonment or arrest, rifles in a woman’s handbag. Luckily for us, in this bonus episode, Aundrea Cline-Thomas openly shares the contents of her wobbly-middle go-bag.
We also get the inside scoop on what it was really like producing a live, chaotic political interview with then-candidate Donald Trump — the pressure, the reputational stakes, and Aundrea’s strategy for taking on the toughest of interviewees.

We thought thrice about bringing Trump vibes into the The Wobbly Middle where we prefer the golden energy that Aundrea’s jacket gives. If you need to wave a mental sage stick, we like The Know - it’s the news but in a way to avoid the overwhelm. It is also female-led in world where just 25% of top editors are women.
