On our entertainment-themed Round 2 this week, we keep busy with three episodes of TV and two accompanying podcasts. On Dancing with the Stars, the annoyingly dragged-out elimination was even more annoying because it was 100% unnecessary, as Ray Lewis withdrew due to injury. But in the meantime, don't sleep on Kate Flannery. You go, girl!

The Good Place premiered ("A Girl From Arizona") with a little too much angst and worry for our heroes, although we very much enjoy the show's podcast [https://www.nbc.com/the-good-place/exclusives/tgp-podcast], hosted by Marc Evan Jackson and featuring this week actors D'Arcy Carden and Kirby Howell-Baptiste and writer Andrew Law.

On The West Wing, it was a Leo-centric episode that is unfortunately one of John Spencer's last ("Running Mates"). Mentioned: The West Wing Weekly podcast [http://thewestwingweekly.com/] and Michelle Obama's memoir, Becoming [https://amzn.to/2ntUr2f].
