This week: The world continues to be a bummer and we're trying to deal with it. Can we move on from the bummer? Should we go live in a hutch in the woods? Plus: Catalina Island vs. Coney Island, scenes from an open marriage, '90s nostalgia, re-watching "Flirting With Disaster," two takes on shorts, listener questions, listener reviews AND — surprise! — we have a male listener!
