This week, we're chatting about the importance of fun in our overworked, efficiency worshipping culture, and "fun" activities we don't actually like. Plus, our monthly Read Watch Listen Follow segment.

Fun activities we don't actually like Can I quote you on that? “No vegetable is safe from the jaws of my spiralizer."
