There are two different ways to end an astroid movie: Impact, or intervention. You either get together with all the people on earth to save the planet, or you realize your efforts didn't work... and you brace for impact. Those two ideas happening in the summer of 1998. Deep Impact, or Armageddon. Culturally, Armageddon will be more remembered, and Deep Impact will be the film you watch when you want to feel better about the inevitable. LeBron James is rewriting the possibilities of the asteroid film. The end of his career doesn't have to be the way you think it should be. It doesn't have to be "one more year" to chase a ring. What if he plays until he's 48? What do six more seasons look like?

Yes, we could make it all about Epstein, but I thought it was more important to understand the systems that produced the outcome. Why aren't powerful people held accountable?

I was sitting in the Admiral's Lounge at DCA, waiting on a long flight delay, and spoke at length with a couples therapist about the realities of couples therapy. Sometimes, even when you're trying to be an impartial third party, you definitely know one person is to blame. Someone is making it worse, and you have to reconcile this, while still making sure the couple has a positive outcome. (Or not. Sometimes a couple therapist may realize it just ain't going to work.) In this episode, I examine America from the standpoint of a couples therapist, trying to look at "The Two Americas" to decide if one side actually owns more blame for the dysfunction. The answer, unequivocally, is yes.
