With Caitlin on Sabbatical there was no one around to reign in Lauren’s OBSESSION with Gilmore Girls. So, instead she added fuel to the fire by calling up frequent contributor Chris Lewis (co-host of Shortcomings podcast) to guest lecture.

This week also has voice memos from Chet Seigel, Rachel Chapman, Kevin Hines, Paris McCarthy, Julie Harney, Latisha DiVenuto and more!
