Taking it To The Street

This week, we explore whether or not Prince really loved purple, discuss what happens when women refuse to move out of men's way for a week, and applaud Pink's parenting style. Plus, what happens when your girlfriend demands the receipts--the read receipts. All that, plus the usual nonsense.

• 32:30 -- THE GOOD WORD — “I hate endings. Just detest them.

Why not be more honest with the moment? The most authentic endings are the ones which are already revolving towards another beginning. That’s genius.” ― Sam Shepard (Ruby’s pick)
