It's Sarah's birthday party, and we are happy to celebrate this amazing woman! She is talking about her reality tv obsession, Love is Blind, and why the show feels ethical while also shocking enough to make great tv. We hear how the Jack the Ripper serial murder case has finally been solved over 100 years after it happened, and why the detectives got so close, but never finished the job until now. We discuss a dilemma in the Czech Republic that required a dam being built to handle a waterway issue, but despite years of red tape and bureaucratic delays the problem was solved by an unlikely hero. And we learn how Russia is employing the world's oldest profession to solve political issues, and Susie feels like she missed her calling to be a spy.
