Weekly Roundup: Tacky the Penguin, That Was Us Podcast, and Parenting Let-Downs


Listen Later

Here's what we're reading, recommending, and revisiting this week.

Catherine's library find is a series of picture books by Helen Lester starring the disheveled but lovable Tacky the Penguin. Plus, a middle-grade read called The Curse of the Werepenguin by Allan Woodrow.

Terri's random recommendation has come, once again, from the Facebook Reels algorithm. It's the That Was Us podcast, a This Is Us rewatch podcast hosted by actors Mandy Moore, Sterling K. Brown, and Chris Sullivan.

Bonus content: You can hear our thoughts on Dancing with the Stars every Tuesday night on YouTube; here's our chat on this week's episode (week 10, the semi-finals).

In the archives, we checked in on an episode from 2019, Parenting Let-Downs.

Next week, we'll be off for Thanksgiving, but will be sharing some of our past turkey-themed chats on social media. After that, we'll return to our regular lineup:
  • Lost S4 E5, "The Constant," on Tuesday, December 2
  • The Lowdown S1 E3, "Dinosaur Memories" on Wednesday, December 3
  • Weekly roundup on Thursday, December 4

Until then (and anytime you're in need), the archives are available.
