In this reprint of a classic OPP episode, Jamie is joined by founding Off-Panelist Merce' Mueller to discuss Craig Thompson's iconic memoir, Blankets. Looking back at their own religious childhoods, they share their connections to this powerful story of childhood, faith, and first love, and Merce' talks about the time Big Bird broke her arm.
