Listener email: Belinda wrote in: “You are probably not old enough to remember, but there used to be second run houses in Chicago. Movies would stay in the theater for maybe a month or more, then go to second run houses where the prices were deeply discounted. Now it seems the studios pull movies just a few weeks before it goes to streaming. But some movies I still want to see on a movie screen. Do you think that something like second run theaters have a chance of returning, especially for people who might have been delayed from seeing the movie in the first 3 or 4 weeks of its release? Could be great for families.

| 0:11.4 | Google's defense? Incognito does not mean invisible. |
| 0:15.2 | In fact, all of your online activity |
