Briefly

It won't save journalism, but The Paper might still deliver.
"On this week's show, Steve, Dana, and Julia crack open the latest edition of The Paper, a new mockumentary set in the The Office universe. They debate whether the tried and true sitcom formula still delivers and assess its portrayal of local journalism. Next, they share their feelings about two couples who are terrible at sharing theirs in Splitsville, the marriage farce created and starring Kyle Marvin and Michael Angelo Covino with Dakota Johnson and ​​Adria Arjona."
"Finally, the heterofatalist discourse continues in their conversation with Slate music critic Carl Wilson about Man's Best Friend, the latest release from the spritely, cheeky, and controversy-stirring Sabrina Carpenter. In an exclusive Slate Plus bonus episode, the panel takes up the business of cultural criticism in a discussion inspired by the recent New York Magazine piece "Do Media Organizations Even Want Cultural Criticism." Email us your thoughts at culturefest@slate.com. Podcast production by Benjamin Frisch. Production assistance by Daniel Hirsch."
