The best of WMC Live with Robin Morgan from 2012, including actor and activist Jane Fonda; New Yorker writer Ariel Levy; Egyptian-American journalist Mona Eltahawy; and Native-American poet Joy Harjo.

Robin hosts the most unusual holiday show perhaps ever: a Winter Solstice Show with radical feminist evangelical minister Rev. Jennifer Danielle Crumpton; Wiccan Priestess Margot Adler; and freethinking atheist Annie Laurie Gaylor of the Freedom from Religion Foundation. Plus, Robin reflects on the Newtown shooting in a commentary called "The Darkest, Longest Night of the Year."

Robin wonders about the Libertarian fad, and speaks with feminist peace organizer Lucinda Marshall; Sapana Pradhan Malla on Nepali women's rights; WMC's Women Under Siege Director Lauren Wolfe on sexualized violence as a weapon of war; and political humorist Kate Clinton.

Robin explores the distinction between gendered, genderless, and gender-neutral languages. Guests include Saudi feminist Wajeha al-Huwaider, on male guardianship laws in Saudi Arabia that make women permanent minors; Rabbi Sharon Brous on the call for social justice in Judaism; journalist and Women's Media Center founding president Carol Jenkins on the representation of women and also of men of color in news media; and Mizzou journalism professor Mary Kaye Blakely takes apart the myth of objectivity.

On World AIDS Day, Robin speaks with Dazon Dixon Diallo of SisterLove, Inc. about the impact of HIV and AIDS on women and girls in the United States; and with Paula Donovan of AIDS-Free World about its impact internationally. Special Guest: the prolific, much-decorated author Ursula K. Le Guin, on why it is that her literature gets classified as "genre" fiction, the hard work of translation and story selection for an anthology, and the changing definitions of feminism. Robin debunks the spin in right-wing propaganda phrases "death tax" and "tax relief," and asks why there is not more outrage over Saudi restrictions on the free movement of women that exceed some of the Taliban's worst, more publicized, offenses. Can it be oil?

Robin defends Susan Rice from John McCain, and speaks with actress Kathy Najimy on feminist comedy; South Dakota park ranger Sunny Clifford on the documentary "Young Lakota;" and chef Nora Pouillon about “certified organic” food.

Robin deconstructs the Petraeus scandal, and speaks with Yifat Suskind about MADRE's "Blow the Whistle on Violence against Women" campaign; Carol Adams waxes eloquent on the sexual politics of meat; and three Women's Media Center Award honorees: Social Media Award-winner Luvvie Ajayi, and Sisterhood Is Powerful awardees Lisa and Laura Ling.

Robin hosts a special Women's Media Awards show with award recipients Pat Mitchell and Sarah Hoye; and Women's Media Center President Julie Burton. Anu Bhagwati of SWAN—Service Women’s Action Network—praises women vets in honor of Veteran's Day. Plus Robin comments on the election outcome's historic wins for women and its "delicious bad-guy losses," and on language so fashionable it's viral.

With her Manhattan studio offline after the historic Hurricane Sandy, Robin ventures into the storm-battered streets of NYC in search of power and the Internet to host a very special and somewhat irregular pre-election show—and the result is her Letter from Ground Zero #4. Guests include pollster Celinda Lake on the women’s vote; University of Arizona College Republicans VP Zoey Kotzambasis on being a Republican for abortion rights and marriage equality; and Congresswoman Maxine Waters on voter suppression and the ground game.

Robin takes on willful ignorance, and speaks with "Sex and World Peace" author Valerie Hudson; and sexploitation survivor Rachel Lloyd. Journalist Charlayne Hunter-Gault talks about her career and the state of the world; members of Ingoma Nshya, a women's drumming troupe formed by Rwandan genocide survivors, plays; and Dr. Marianne Legato explains the new science of gender-specific medicine.
