On today's episode, the actor, writer, comedian, author and hopefully, our future president, June Diane Raphael, stopped by Catt's L.A. home for a talk.

The two talk about her role in what is now the longest running Netflix original series, Grace and Frankie; why she decided to open a female-focused coworking space, The Jane Club; and how in an alternative universe, she could have played college basketball.

Also, Diane shares the inspiration behind her recently released book, Represent: The Woman's Guide to Running for Office and Changing the World, as well as some how-to tips for anyone out there looking to run for political office. 

And, Catt offers a sneak peek into her upcoming TV pilot and shares her own insight into gender bias in Hollywood.

Sidenote: Just a week or so after taping this interview, June -- inspired by her Grace and Frankie co-star, Jane Fonda -- was arrested protesting outside the U.S. Capitol building.
