Ruth and Ray dive into their summer so far, starting with their family outing to see Superman—Ray geeking out over the reboot while Ruth shares her fresh take. They debate superhero movies, airport food hacks (yes, Ruth eats chips with chopsticks), and pitch wild documentary ideas (Screech biopic, anyone?). Plus, the shows and podcasts they’re loving this season. It’s a laid-back, fun-filled chat—just like hanging out with them IRL.
