Summary

"It makes perfect sense that it would happen today, because I just received this in the mail: a thousand business cards with this address and phone number." Here, replenish your fluids—this week we’re talking about Branch Closing! We dedicate this episode to a classic from Season 3 that goes from Scranton to Stamford to David Wallace’s house, all while Jan drives something like 400 miles. We dive into the characters’ reactions and plans for the future after the branch closes, Dwight and Michael’s stakeout, and the fax from the future from future Dwight Jim. Then (47:20) we head to the Conference Room where we talk about the sneak peek of The Paper! With the debut just a week away we talk about our thoughts and expectations and discuss the news that the show will now be released all at once on Peacock!
