One Way or Another

This week is all about relentless pursuit. Our picks have characters chasing down desires, goals, or even the truth.

Also in this episode, Erin reveals her own dogged pursuits, Amy shows indecisive pursuit can work out, and we describe our sitcom based on a cruise ship. Plus, Ziggy the Podcat makes an appearance.

Listen to "One Way or Another," the relentless song from Blondie and inspiration for this week's theme.
