This week we took a break from the news of the world and talked about something a little more personal - we talked about Zach's wedding day. And we even brought in his lovely wife Sara Novic to talk about the big day from her perspective, and to remind Zach how much of a Jewish Princess he was. Plus we talk about the movies "Mudbound," "47 Meters Down," and the Netflix show "Alias Grace."

Our book this week is about a young woman whose life was ripped apart by the Yugoslav Civil War, which took her parents and turned her, briefly, into a child soldier, before she made it to Philadelphia, where she tried her best to put her past in the past and move on with her life as an American. In the second half of the show, it's the triumphant return of Fan Fiction Corner. Ever wonder what kind of fan fiction people are writing about HGTV shows? No? Well, you're going to find out anyway!
