Grace Lin and Alvina Ling discuss how regret factors into their decision making, and they discuss five styles of decision making, and which style they both fall under. They also talk about the endowment effect and how that factors into their decision making, and their feelings about making mistakes and whether they consider themselves to be careless or careful.

For the Fortune Cookie segment, they discuss various pieces of publishing news, including a follow up on the closing of Baker & Taylor, a new Dr. Seuss book discovered, and the announcement of a Children's Booker Prize. They end as always with what they're grateful for.
