On this episode, a break from the usual format. About a year ago, Rob came home from his 30th high school reunion with a story he couldn’t stop telling: how he tried to apologize to a woman that reunion whose friendship he’d ended their junior year of high school. To get to the bottom of what the story meant, Rob sat down with a close friend, set up two microphones, and told her the whole thing. Rob and Britta talk about what happened when he did, and why a story might mean something different depending on who’s listening when you tell it.
