E071 - Barbara Said You Couldn't Do It

What a special one this one is! Algis comes hot out of the gate, Ellen-style singing and dancing in the snow! She goes on a tangent about song lyrics that only make sense to the writer. Then after burning her tongue on her tea she gets distracted from her point about earworms and instead explores the most American thing she could think of; goes into a lengthy philosophical dissection of the absurdity of regret (very brainy! Wow! SO brain!); applies that perspective on regret to her own transition, and comments on Transgender Awareness Week; her inability to relate to people; and then she wraps it all up with some great callbacks and funny likkle thoughts :) This is an especially good episode if you're looking for spontaneous sillies, personal reflections, and a nice, chewy philosophical exploration!
