Jennie and Sarah snuggle up under one big existential blanket this week and get the ball rolling in a conversation about what the movie I ❤️ Huckabees (2004) can show us about the importance of avoiding extremes, embracing everyone’s process, and writing love into our own self-narratives. Listen to this quirky conversation about an even quirkier movie to discover where you lie on the ball vs. blanket continuum, and consider what your own personal life-walk-on-music would be.
