Pump the brakes Deep Divers, we're resting up for Summer II. This week, Jess and June are making plans to reflect and disconnect. We've been racing toward Summer I for so long, it's time to put your feet up and your phone down. Do what feels good whether it's crying in TJ Maxx, or singing Les Mis at karaoke.

Step aside Trolley Problem, we have a new ethical dilemma. It does involve being Billy Zane on the Titanic, but we will not judge you for making the right decision.

Lurker turned guest, Paul Scheer, joins June in an intimate conversation about survival instincts, nether region tick-removal, and his NYTimes best-selling memoir, Joyful Recollections of Trauma.

This week, Jessica breaks her silence about the photo that rocked the Garbage World/Deep Dive universe and gives deep thanks those citizens who came out in full force and formed their own Situation Room to preserve life, liberty, and the pursuit of snap-free-ness. And June faces her own judgement about iPads since June’s mothership computer has been taken away for repairs, leaving her with no choice but to join the "Sent from iPad" society.

DM Jessica with the worst photo ever taken of you to join in as she takes back the sight and stay safe out there.

Buckle up Deep Divers because this week, Jess is flying solo with a special guest, Kate Kennedy.

Kate doesn’t just know her way around a lower lash liner, she is the New York Times Bestselling author of “One in a Millennial” and host of the hilarious “Be There in Five” podcast.

Kate explains why after surviving economic disasters, abstinence-only education and the pairing of baby T’s with low slung jeans, millennials are still blamed for killing paper napkins and living in their parent’s basement. But that’s not the whole story! After listening, find the nearest millennial and give them a big hug. Especially if it’s yourself!

June's having a helluva morning and Jess is here to remind us all: we have no other choice but to take the day poco by poco.

It's your serve, life.

East Coast/West Coast calendar tribulations aside, June and Jessica run a safe space for all. Running on fumes this week, we are too burnt out to read the book on burnout; but there's plenty to be grateful for and though we may have to bury our secrets in a bush, you can trust that there are life lessons to be learned in every diner and stadium parking lot across the nation.

What's your favorite childhood food? Could you describe it in an appetizing way? If so, we're gonna need you to reconsider your answer.

Jess reports on her and Casey’s whirlwind live Small Talk tour featuring American’s Sweetheart, Professor Jake Cornell, as well a youth sports ref with a bad attitude. June has some passionate words for both, and a Mother's Day quandary (with a very clear resolution).
