On our latest weekly roundup, we start with the unavoidable cultural onslaught that is Barbie, the movie (which allowed us to reminisce about the Barbies of our youth). Mentioned: One of Greta Gerwig's previous movies, Lady Bird, which we discussed back in 2018.

What we're watching: We continue with The Afterparty's "Hannah," a pitch-perfect take on Wes Anderson films that introduces some important new information, but doesn't seem to bring us closer to discovering the killer. On Brothers & Sisters, season 2 hurtles to its conclusion by tossing out or reversing just about everyone's storyline.

Catherine's library finds include one cynical pick, the Behind the Brand series for young titans of industry, and one adorable one: The fruit and veggie tales of Jared Chapman (Vegetables in Underwear, Vegetables in Pajamas, and Fruits in Suits).

In the archives, we revisit chats on what's keeping us up at night (August 3, 2022), our teamwork dreams (August 4, 2021), and household hacks (August 3, 2020). Mentioned: Oats Overnight.

We'll be back with a new episode next Tuesday. Our TV watch will cover S2 E5 of The Afterparty ("Sebastian") and S2 E16 of Brothers & Sisters ("Prior Commitments"). If you miss hearing from us every single day, the archives await you!
