Hello and welcome to Happier. This week we'll talk about why you should choose

0:05.8

an office TV show and the question of whether you prefer to savor or spree.

0:24.1

I'm Gretchen Rubin, a writer whose studies happiness could have its human nature.

0:28.8

I'm in New York City and with me is my sister, Elizabeth Kraft, my happiness guinea pig,

0:34.5

or viewed another way innocent bystander. That's me, Elizabeth Kraft. I'm a writer and producer,

0:41.6

living in LA and Gretchen. I want to give one brief update. Having listened to our very special

0:48.8

episode 20, which was all about hearing from our listeners, I thought I came off sounding

0:55.2

a little bit harsh about Adam and him being when I termed overprotective of Jack, when I was

1:46.4

that comes from me, the TV writer. This isn't just because I want people to watch more TV.

1:52.9

I think in my office we are all Gremah Throne's fans and I realized that we come in on Monday

2:01.5

morning when Gremah Throne's in season and everybody's watched at the night before and you make

2:07.9

a point of watching it because you know everybody's going to be talking about it so watch it live

2:13.8

and it's just a great way to start the day to have this sort of fun discussion about what happened

2:18.9

and what do you think and what's going to happen next week. And it sort of just creates an

additional point of connection with you know between colleagues, obviously us being TV writers,
