Summary

Josh Radnor joins Chelsea to talk about the highs and lows of playing one character for a decade, the delights of NYC, and his sober-curious lifestyle.

Then: A newlywed discovers an attempt at cheating while snooping on her husband’s phone. A sister wonders if she’s third-wheeling with her brother and his girlfriend. And an employee wants to do her job and make out with her boss. Just a little bit.
