Everything’s coming up Brenda! In the season finale (is that right? It’s so soon!) Brenda sits down with comedian and improviser Candice Oates, who takes NONE of her advice on how to become a star. And Kevin still isn’t there. Brenda will be back once she finds him - and visits every HomeGoods pillow aisle within a 30 mile radius. Until then, thanks for listening!

Kevin is NOWHERE to be found, but Brenda soldiers on to talk with performer Yanni Clemmons about her new podcast, “Le Fe Film Clurb.” Brenda doesn’t quite get what it’s about, but she can’t wait to educate the young people about “Beaches,” “The Prince of Tides” and “The First Wives Club.” (Rest in Peace, Diane Keaton.)
