Melanie and I are right down to the wire on this one - recording on Wednesday afternoon just a few hours before we release the episode - but this is what we needed to do so that Melanie could share a full account of her time with Caroline in Omaha. So we're talking about baseball, and some TV thoughts, and the fact that I went to see an actual movie in an actual theater. So many developments.

On top of all that, it's Melanie's turn for Five Favorites.

Hope you enjoy!
