Our picks tackle this thorny topic.Plus, the Broads consider our gross out-of-control habits, how spontaneity is terrifying, and why we need a house elf. And much more.LINKS: Listen to "Ride," the song from Twenty One Pilots that inspired this week's theme. Get a Broad's book: Order Dig Me Out by our own Amy Lee Lillard now! Like the Podcats?
