Show Notes
This week, Alice and Skyler discuss the best way to break it to your partner that a celebrity's died, Alice having a chic Euro-cold, penning up all the comics only to unleash them, the wonderful sounds of the city, and much, much more. Behind the paywall, they get into DS9 season four, episode nineteen, "Hard Time." Topics include O'Brien going to the jail of the mind, everybody on the station being kind of blasé about him being sent to the jail of the mind, the steady work of being in corrections, whether or not this episode's a little rude to the Irish, Skyler's time in Edinburgh, covering The Summer I Turned Pretty someday, and much, much more!
