The Good Wife: Season 3, Episode 6 - Affairs of State

This week on The Good Pod, Jason and Marissa break down Season 3, Episode 6 of The Good Wife, “Affairs of State.” It’s a loaded hour with diplomatic immunity drama, a cringeworthy Will and Zach meeting, and the debut of Parker Posey as Eli’s ex-wife, Vanessa. Is Dana a new character or have we all been gaslit? Is Alicia ready to define her relationship with Will? And what exactly is a spotlight party? Plus, Marissa and Jason celebrate a major milestone—their one-year podcast anniversary! It’s a disjointed episode of the show, but we pull all the threads together in this fun and fiery recap.Timestamps:00:12 – Jason and Marissa open up about the episode's chaotic energy03:15 – Who is Dana?
