Award-winning documentary filmmaker Mary Mazzio and former sailor and Olympic rower Amy Baltzell join Sarah to discuss the new documentary, Mighty Mary, which covers the first-ever all-women's crew to compete for the America's Cup sailing competition.

Plus, move over strawberries and cream and mint juleps.
