Having picked our favorite weekday, we now turn our attention to Saturday and Sunday, and wonder whether there's a definitive fave or "it depends."

Things that make for memorable birthdays: proximity to weddings, proximity to big cross-country moves, proximity to alcohol.

From the West Coast to the East Coast, from the suburbs to the sprawl, we shout out some cities we've loved or liked or had mixed feelings about. It's complicated.

Your road map to this week's entertainment-themed episode:

00:36 Family TV Habits: When we're not watching, what's on TV? Terri's husband and Catherine's son might be kindred TV spirits.

8:42 One Day at a Time: We're still entertained by this show, but Terri has figured out what it is that bugs her about the character of Elena.

14:16 Challenge Round: Sing Street: Catherine challenged Terri to watch this 2016 movie, set in Dublin and complete with charming accents and quirky characters. It's a fun, light-hearted watch. Mentioned: Its inclusion on Linda Holmes's list of "50 Wonderful Things from 2016" at NPR's Monkey See blog.

For next week, Terri challenged Catherine to watch the 2001 edition of Ocean's Eleven (partly inspired by this trailer for the upcoming lady version, Ocean's 8). We'll also watch the remainder of season 1 of One Day at a Time (episodes 11, 12, and 13), and The West Wing's "Red Haven's on Fire" from season 4.

00:31 SAT Aftermath: The test may be over, but the stress is still lingering.

6:09 About the Walkout: When students walk out of class this Wednesday, Nicole's daughter won't be among them. But don't judge her motives.

22:10 Speed Round: After-School Snacks: We have fond memories of snacks supplied by moms, sitters, and the corner store.

28:47 Roundabout Roundup: The Paralympic Games (and Oksana Masters); the Poscast podcast; and Nicole's source for veggies she doesn't have to actually touch, Prep Table. 

36:23 Shameless Self-Promotion: The Bad Place: Customer Service Division; Why Preschoolers Love Potty Talk; How to Overcome Challenges to Inclusion.

From vitamins to pop-sockets to surprise boxes, we talk about our latest purchases and some Prime particulars.

It's that time of year when we start dreaming about Thin Mints and Samoas and those peanut-butter sandwich cookies we can't remember the name of. Mmmm, cookies.

Do you identify your car by something impersonal like color, make, or who drives it? Or have you come up with a more creative tag, like Blueberry or Marge? We fall more on the boring side, but Toyota's nagging Nicole to up her game.

Your road map to this week's entertainment-themed podcast:

00:30 The Oscars: Have we seen these movies? Barely! But will that stop us from commenting about attire and random clip montages? Not at all!

20:15 One Day at a Time: Episodes 7 and 8 of season 1 were classically sit-commy, and we approve.

25:07 The West Wing: "The California 47th" is not our favorite episode, but we appreciated the zingers from both CJ and Andy Wyatt.

Challenge Round: We skipped a challenge for this week due to the Oscars. For next week, Catherine challenged Terri to watch the 2016 movie Sing Street (available on Netflix). 

We'll also watch two more episodes of One Day at a Time, "Viva Cuba" and "Sex Talk." We're taking (at least) a week off from The West Wing due to scheduling confusion over at the West Wing Weekly podcast, so we'll surprise you with something else fun to talk about next week.

00:31 Warnings: We have a public service announcement about a phone scam, and some questions about the anonymous skunk in our Google doc.

05:58 Take a Picture, It'll Last Longer: But will you be able to find it when you want to see it?

21:23 Speed Round: Uber Spinoffs: Now that your doctor can send an Uber to pick you up for your appointment, we have some other vehicle-related jobs to outsource.

30:39 Roundabout Roundup: Nicole's son's band, To the Wolves, plays the House of Blues Anaheim; a Sandbox update we hated can be switched off; Google Home.

39:10 Shameless Self-Promotion: Parenting Roundabout on Radio Public (support us by sending it to your phone and listening on the RadioPublic app!); Practical Strategies to Modify Your Curriculum for Students Working Below Grade Level (upcoming webinar from Nicole); 15 Fascinating Facts About the Mystery of Pi.
