Melissa welcomes Deadspin Senior Editor Diana Moskovitz, a premier sports journalist on cases of assault and violence against women, to talk about how we should be covering these cases and whether it's possible for a player to truly reform when they're given a quick second chance like Kareem Hunt.

Diana also explains the difference between assault and DV, why a zero tolerance policy is dangerous, and takes issue with the NFL for trying to be the moral police. Then we learn more about what makes Diana tick - how her role as a crime reporter in Miami paved her path and the therapeutic practice she uses to say sane.

After Diana, Melissa shares some quick thoughts on what has been a banner week for the ignorant about Colin Kaepernick.
