I like the idea of an episodic-sort-of commentary. Reminds me a little of Herb Caen, the SF columnist back in the day who wrote was became known as the 3-dot column, items that were strung together by ellipses... Some items were just a sentence and more social, others were actual news items and explorations of real issues... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herb_Caen

Ha, cool! I've never heard of him before but this is a cool concept. I just found this in the Atlantic, too: https://www.theatlantic.com/national/archive/2012/02/some-three-dot-journalism-in-honor-of-herb-caen/252489/

Cool. Thanks for finding this and sharing it. Cohen's a good writer, as well.

Thanks for this fun post, Rachel. I have lots to say about Heard-Depp, but I think I won't ... it's just too upsetting. So I'll focus on the fun, like the kitties and the great shows and interesting podcasts. I appreciate all the insightful recommendations.
