This week, Taffy Brodesser-Akner comes on the show to talk about her New York Times

Magazine piece on the arbitration against Sterling Jewelers, the parent company that owns

brands like Kay, Jared and Zales. Plus, Taffy weighs in on the celebrity industrial complex -- a

topic she knows a lot about after spending 8 months with Gwyneth Paltrow for a story.

And in the Slate Plus segment: Chip and Joanna Gaines’ new network.
