Summer is here and we are moving to a holiday schedule! This means that from now until the end of September we'll be alternating between classics from the vaults and new episodes every week.   The summer heat has inspired us to hit replay on our 2018 recording with journalist Dannielle Piper about the classic vacation movie The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants in which Rory Gilmore travels to Greece! We hope you enjoy it and we'll see you next week with a new episode.   Summary:   "Pants equal love."
