How Andrew Garfield and James Blunt won our hearts?!
Listen now
Description
James Blunt weirdly got us on board with the 20th anniversary re-release of his debut album, Back to Bedlam, which features the divisive ear worm "You're Beautiful." Then actor Andrew Garfield got vulnerable on Sesame Street talking to Elmo about grief; and went on a chemistry-packed Chicken Shop Date with Amelia Dimoldenberg.

Jennifer Wong, writer, comedian and this week's guest critic, is in to discuss.
