The Barrons travel to Scranton to visit Jude, Kat is sick, and SAM GETS ENGAGED! We talk about True Grit, Miss Potter, and an abundance of English regency-era entertainment. For Catholic Stuff we talk about True Grit and Merchant of Venice as a double feature on looking at Justice and Mercy.

Mac suffers the grind and the tickle (not a euphemism), Sam is back in town, Argyl is not worth your time, but Self-Reliance and The Guard are, and we wax nostalgic over how great (and peppered with faith) the show ER was.

Kat takes Jude back to Scranton. We live the empty-nester’s life with the food subscription service to prove it. We show Jude what everyone compares his school to (Dead Poets Society), and we lament how modern society frowns upon early marriage…also we complain a lot about Monarch.
