"Massive Nights and Nervous Coughs"
We're back, baybee! What have we been up to? How was Massive Nights 2021? Who are The Grifters? How many animals interrupted the making of this episode? Why are men? All these answers and MORE in the first episode of The Hold Steady is for Women in 2022. (Unfortunately, I was watching 'The Eyes of Tammy Faye' while writing this episode description and it may have influenced its tone. Sorry. -HV)
