ONE OF OUR TOP PODCASTS EVER; We've never solved this 2008 mystery of Julie, the stranger and Zorro's slobbery tennis ball. Lian, Monica and Sheila can't believe Julie was so trusting with a odd request. What started as a "sticky situation" became a potentially dark tale. Listen and tell us what you think was actually happening. Post your theories on our Satellite Sisters Facebook Group. Monica has questions about online reading. Does it have the same effect as reading a book or magazine? Julie recommends a new play based on Little House on the Prairie that's on stage in Minnesota. Lian has some new TV habits. Her household has become a Nick At Night household. Science with Sheila! Sheila has a list of the 10 things not to worry about on vacation from science writer John Tierney of Thew New York Times.
