As always, we close the show with recommendations.

Katie recommends The Mountain, an upcoming short story collection by Paul Yoon. "[The stories] kind of migrate -- there's a path of migration but both through time and through space. They are really beautifully observed."
MJ recommends Evictedby Matthew Desmond. "It is this incredible investigation into poverty and the practice of eviction in America, and how eviction really is a destabilizing force in America that not only destabilizes families but also whole communities."
Aliza recommends Feud, Ryan Murphy's current show on FX. It's about the creation of the movie Whatever Happened to Baby Jane. "I LOVE it. As a series, it is so well done; as social commentary, it is so well done; the actors in it are amazing."
Peter recommends the new Comedy Central show Detroiters, "It is freaking hilarious." He also recommends the FXshow Legion."It is exceptionally interesting television. Even when the story makes no sense, it is still mesmerizing to watch."
And we have a bonus team recommendation: this video of a girl professing her love to a broken water boiler, which she thinks is a friendly robot. "My emotions were not prepared for this video. It is adorable."
