Mandy, Kathryn and Gideon Grody-Patinkin kick things off with a spirited round of Would You Rather? They settle an important debate: should you get a pet T-Rex? Then, listener Robyn asks a deeply personal question: what's the best way to honor her late husband? And Mandy is passionately all-in on human composting, leading to an emotional discussion about death, memorials, and why it's so important to tell your loved ones exactly what you want done with your remains. Finally, the tables turn as Mandy and Kathryn get to ask Gideon the questions for a change. Naturally, a rant about the state of the world ensues.
