Watch: NEVER HAVE I EVER (The cutest, funniest TV dramedy created by Mindy Kaling and Lang Fisher about an Indian-American teenager facing the death of her father.)
Listen: The ARMCHAIR EXPERT Podcast episode with Yale professor Woo-Kyoung Ahn (She studies the way people think including bias, rationalization, rumination, and more — this episode blew my mind!)
Read: LIZZY AND THE CLOUD by the Fan Brothers (You can step into a world where you can have clouds as pets! Who wouldn’t want that?!)
What’s your recommendation of the week?
