**Note: Due to the length of the book and the discussion it inspired, the episode was split in two. This is the second part.

This week, the Bitches get into Educated, the bestselling memoir by Tara Westover⁠ chronicling her journey from the clutches of isolated extremist family to "worldly" PhD wielder.

Topics discussed include: the harms of extremism, and potential harms of isolationism, purity culture and the perpetuation, the education system, the worth of college, and the power of people in your court.

Today's kids book featuresThe Stuff of Stars by Marian Dane Bauer and Ekua Holmes ⁠and We are Water Protectors by Carol Lindstrom and Michaela Goade⁠.
