Josh Gondelman and Kristen Meinzer imagine their dream figure skating songs, then try to remember the movie La La Land.

What You'll Hear:

Dream Olympic Skate: If you could choose any song for a figure skating routine, what would it be? Josh and Kristen spin through their picks—from roller-rink nostalgia to arena-rock drama—and celebrate the joy of a bold musical choice.

Do You Remember: Tonight’s challenge: recalling the plot of La La Land from memory. With a little help from each other (and a few guesses), they piece together jazz dreams, Hollywood ambition, and one famously bittersweet ending.

Bittersweet Movie Endings: Why do so few films let love stories end with tenderness instead of forever? Josh and Kristen reflect on the quiet power of endings that look a little more like real life.
