Grace is back after yet another illness to talk about the increasingly shrinking window for the Mets to make the playoffs this year. They're fighting but they're stuck in the position of hoping for the other teams to keep losing because they keep losing. They have some bright spots and some real highs, but the lows are so low and so frequent.

Next, Grace discusses the Jimmy Kimmel censorship. Like many other things in the past eight months, it's concerning and so abhorrent but overwhelming. Luckily Disney put Kimmel back on after a few days but it was a bunch of anger over nothing and is a warning shot for the Trump administration's increasing attempt to control the media.

Finally, in honor of Robert Redford, Grace does a double movie minute, one she's already recommended but did it again in honor of one of her favorite (underrated) Redford performances. Then another that came at the very end of his career that proved that right up to the end he was a movie star through and through.
