If you're reading this, there's a good chance it's a little chilly where you are. Baby, it's cold outside! Winter, it appears, has come. Thus, it's a good week to have a fireplace. You know where you can find good fireplaces? Sweden! The Swedes really know how to fireplace. Their fireplace game is strong. Just FYI. Anyway, here are some things we made for you that we didn't want you to miss.
-- We explored the nostalgia for double albums in the era of digital music.

-- We shared with you some lessons on leadership learned from being locked in an escape room with strangers.
-- We chronicled Willie Nelson's love for weed and how it made him something of a revolutionary in the country music world.
-- We talked to director Peter Berg and he told us that he hopes to spread a message of love with Patriot's Day.
