Welcome back to Infinite Threads. I’m your host Bob. All week, we’ve been looking at something I don’t think I fully understood when I was younger. Television was teaching me. Not in the obvious way.

Welcome back to Infinite Threads. I’m your host Bob. Yesterday, we talked about the way television could make us laugh and then, without much warning, take us somewhere painful.

He missed a bus, almost missed a job interview, got some unexpected help, and then passed a little of that help forward to a woman named Denise. Denise went home to check on her father, Frank. And Frank, for reasons he…
Welcome back to Infinite Threads. I’m your host Bob. Yesterday, we met Maya. She was behind the counter at the coffee shop, trying to hold herself together while worrying about her mother in the hospital. Then Eli came through the door. Young guy. Backpack. Out of breath. He had missed the bus that…
Welcome back to Infinite Threads. I’m your host Bob. Yesterday, we met Mark. He started the day irritated, helped an older man whose grocery bag split in the street, and then carried a little more patience into a coffee shop. Behind the counter was Maya. Mark knew almost nothing about her. Today, w…
