Summary

Tour starts tomorrow, Sept 7th! Tix here: https://linktr.ee/cbcthepod

A long time ago, in an English garden far, far away.... we finally read Alec Guinness's delightful romp of essays "A Positively Final Appearance." A thespian of the utmost gravitas, Alec was furious that most of the world knew him only for his role as wise Jedi Obi-Wan Kenobi in George Lucas' blockbuster claptrap, and now we're adding insult to injury with this episode title. Lily finally watches Star Wars. A recipe for nursing a sick dog back to health. Tony Blair, the Iraq War, Princess Diana's conversational prowess, The Duke of Windsor's temper, and lots of tea. Put a kettle on!
