The question of why Tara Reade did not come forward in 2008 when Biden was picked for Vice President is addressed. The hosts suggest that the pre-"Me Too" era of 1993 was a very different environment for reporting harassment by powerful senators. Furthermore, the intense loyalty within the Democratic Party often discourages staffers from speaking out against "next man up" candidates.
