We salute some powerful sisters today: Peggy Lipton, Melinda Gates, Julia Louis-Dreyfus and New Zealand PM Jacinda Ardern.

Let's start with the first cool girl we ever saw on TV: Julie Barnes on Mod Squad. Julie, you changed our lives and our look forever. Plus we'll never forget this: "Cops. One black. One white. One blonde." As Linc would say, solid.

Lian spent an evening with Melinda Gates and John Legend talking about her life and her new book The Moment of Lift. She gives us the highlights.

Mass shootings. We've had enough. Read this editorial by New Zealand PM Jacinda Ardern about what we should be doing next: We Can End The Era of Live-Streamed Violence

Have you heard of the Glass Cliff? Liz discusses it with a guest on this week's episode of Safe For Work. Lian sees a lot a examples around her, including the new President of USC.

Entertaining Sisters:

The Veep Finale. We laughed. We cried. We watched it a second time. Farewell, Selina.
