I'd love to see JLB back, with Marjo. But I worry for his back. Tho would the US release him? Pretty sure Canada will never release Marjo.
I too rotate through streaming services. I got Crave for 3 things - I Have Nothing (you should def watch this. It's epic. I think it's on Peacock.) The Gilded Age, and the Oscars. I had it for 2 months for a total cost of less than $4! Will resubscribe again next year for the oscars and the next season of the Gilded Age. Currently immersed in Britbox.
I love I Have Nothing! This is a good reminder to watch again.
I'm pretty surprised JLB is coming back. I thought the retirement with Kaitlin was at least in part because they just couldn't physically do it anymore.
She's talked about some mental health issues, plus they both had concussions. Hopefully he's all healed now. Some names being suggested for Lajoie/Baker - Laker, LaLuc, and my fave Bakerie.
Thinking about Jean-Luc and Kaitlyn's final skating video on Instagram still breaks my heart. It would be hard to see him skate with someone else, but I've always thought he was one of the best male skaters in the sport so of course it would also be exciting to see him at all! PS do you remember which Runthrough episode where they talked about the LaLa breakup? I thought I was caught up but I think I missed that!
I am deeply torn about the JLB and Marjo rumors because I think his partnership with Kaitlyn was so beautiful and special...but I also think Marjo deserves a really spectacular partner and none of the current Canadian men are up to her level?!
I came here originally for figure skating content, but I stayed because I liked how you write about it, so carry on with writing about other stuff as you feel like it!!
I’m also on an Apple kick! Loved Margo’s Got Money Troubles and thought it was a great adaptation of the book. I’m a little iffy on them getting a second season (it seems perfect as a limited series?) but I trust Elle Fanning so I’m curious to see where they take it. Also watched and loved the first two eps of Widow’s Bay and I am trying to very patiently wait for when my husband and I have a joint free night so we can watch the next episode.
The source material for Margo was so good; I'm pretty concerned about them going off-road in season 2. But at the same time, I do want more. Like you, I trust Elle Fanning. Her taste is pretty impeccable.
Widow’s Bay is simultaneously weird, funny and creepy. I love it! Also, do not miss Your Friends and Neighbors. Also funny, sometimes sad and uncomfortable but there’s Jon Hamm so it’s good no matter what. And there are several new shows I haven’t watched yet. I read Margot’s Got Money Troubles so I’ve been waiting to watch the show.
I’d love to see JLB back, but only with Kaitlin. (Or Olivia.)

Bakerie wins for most creative. But I can't stop singing, "LaaaLuuuuu" to myself.

I don't think I realized this... but it's actually only on their Patreon for subscribers. It's not actually in my Spotify feed. It's from May 11.
Thanks! I’m a Patron but haven’t listened as religiously there. I’ll check it out!

I mean, I guess we're getting it!

This is incredibly nice-- thank you.
Love the skating content but I'm here for whatever strikes your fancy! I like your style girl!
I am extremely flattered, thank you!

LOLOLOL JLB AND MARJO HAPPENING per their instagrams. I think the more appropriate phrasing at this point is "silly season".
Well don’t I have egg on my face! What’s next.. Nathan Chen out of retirement to skate with Hannah Lim?

Thanks for the encouragement to watch Widow’s Bay! Trying to convince myself it won’t keep me awake all night.
