At The Sunday Paper, we want to inspire you to gather at your table—virtually or with friends and family—and open your heart and mind to conversations that will move the needle. After all, the kitchen table is where we connect on topics and map out the changes we can all make that’ll truly make an impact.

This week, to encourage your conversations, we recommend checking out the following:

What We're Watching

The Sunday Paper is watching Still: A Michael J. Fox Movie, an extraordinary film that we’ve been waiting for two months. Previously we covered how actors Michael J. Fox and Tracy Pollan are stronger than ever after 34 years of marriage and a Parkinson's diagnosis. You can get an intimate and honest look at Fox’s journey in the film and watch the trailer below.

What We're Listening To

What’s the worst date you’ve been on? “He broke all of his front teeth,” actress Jameela Jamil shared in a TODAY interview. Her podcast Bad Dates invites comedians, celebrities, and friends every week to share their worst date story. Check it out if you are ready to laugh a lot, cry a little, and cringe just enough.

What We're Cooking

Our Sunday Paper Book of the Week

You don’t need to blend in. Chasten Buttigieg reflects candidly on growing up in a conservative small town and the rewarding journey of embracing his identity in I Have Something to Tell You—For Young Adults: A Memoir. You can also read Buttigieg’s piece on his union with Pete Buttigieg and their family he’d do anything to protect here.
