Summary

This week, Kate starts by raging about people who say watching TV is a waste of time and/or is the lowest form of intimacy one can achieve with their partner. After pontificating about why TV matters, Kate then discusses how heartwarming it was seeing footage of Friends revived online this week following the tragic news of Matthew Perry’s passing and enlists her sister Kelly to join her in talking about a variety of topics and moo points surrounding the iconic TV show, e.g., how shows like Friends can serve as our friends in trying times, what did and didn’t age well, favorite characters, seasons, bits, episodes, paper, snow, a ghost, among other topics. Enjoy!
