Margaret Willison, communications director and faculty for Not Sorry Productions, and Christina Tucker, host of the podcast Wait, Is This a Date?, return to discuss the ethics of TV spoilers, NPR’s decision to leave the Twitter-sphere, and why HBO thinks Max is a good idea.

Then, one of our favorite chefs, Abra Berens, chats about her new book Pulp: A Practical Guide to Cooking with Fruit. From sweet to savory recipes, Abra makes cooking with fruit accessible.

Plus, we share another rendition of our Nerdy Jobs series, where we take a peek into a person’s very specific and maybe a little strange job. This week, we head to the opera to discover how a lighting designer brings stories to life through light. Marcella Barbeau is a freelance lighting designer based in New York City.
