In this episode of The Gutters, my audio journal, I talk about not one, but two! family vacations we took this year: one to the Oregon Coast and the other to spend time with my daughter and my grandkids. I also talk about movies (including The Suicide Squad and much better films) and television (The Queen's Gambit!) we watched during that time and end with some podcast talk.
