With all of the allegations of sexual misconduct coming out in the news, the gang decides to discuss the issue head-on. This is a very serious topic and problem, but there is still hope for the problem to be fixed (or at least reduced). Maybe by having this conversation, all of the darkness can be brought to light, and all of the places of hurt can become places of healing.

Since it's almost Halloween, the gang joins up to talk about a variety of creatures that seem to pop up around this holiday.

Today, Juan, Chris, Rebeca, and Gabby join up to talk about all things Tolkien! Hear about which characters the gang likes the most, and when each of them first saw the movies or read the books.

In honor of (protest of?) Columbus Day, the gang tackles the topic of if this day should be celebrated as a holiday.
