Deconstructing Karen
The term "Karen," a pejorative slang term for an alleged obnoxious, angry, entitled, and perceived racist white woman who uses inherent privilege to get their way or police other people's behaviors, became the most notorious watchword of 2020. It is now 2022, and the term "Karen" is officially a part of our lexicon with no sign of leaving anytime soon. Dr. Phil speaks with Ambrosia, who says she was falsely accused of being a "Karen" when she refused to wear a mask and claimed a UPS store was her place of residence because she had packages delivered there. How did her life change after a video of her went viral? Can good people who do not have any ill intent be racist? Can a person be a "Karen" and not even know it? The controversial documentary Deconstructing Karen has been at the forefront of this issue. The film follows "Race2Dinner" co-founders and co-authors of 'White Women: Everything You Already Know About Your Own Racism and How To Do Better," Regina Jackson and Saira Rao, who say they challenge white women who say they are not racist to see their innate racism and use the newfound realization to help fight systemic racism in America. Director Patty Ivins-Specht also explains what she learned from working on the documentary. Then, educator Toni says she is sick and tired of the "Karen" trend and it is wrong to label all white women as racists. And, life coach and author of One Decision, Mike Bayer, joins the conversation with his thoughts on choices people make, and alternative behavioral options to being "Karen-ish". This is a thought-provoking episode you won't want to miss.

The Ministry of Time
The Ministry of Time, a newly established government department, is gathering ‘expats' from across history in an experiment to test the viability of time-travel. Commander Graham Gore (an officer on Sir John Franklin's doomed 1845 Arctic expedition) is one such figure rescued from certain death – alongside an army captain from the fields of the Somme, a plague victim from the 1600s, a widow from revolutionary France, and a soldier from the seventeenth century.
The expats are placed with 21st century liaisons, known as 'bridges', in unlikely flatshares. Gore has to learn about contemporary life from scratch: from air travel to industrial warfare, from feminism to Spotify, from cinema to indoor plumbing; and he must negotiate cohabiting with the ambitious modern woman who works as his bridge. After an awkward beginning, the pair start to find pleasure and comfort in each other's company, developing a relationship that is simultaneously tender, intense and profoundly unprofessional; and the expats, adrift in a new era, form friendships that ground and support them in the lonely 21st century, where they have outlived everyone they ever knew and loved.
When a deeper conspiracy at the Ministry begins to reveal itself, the bridge must reckon with what she does next. Will she save or sacrifice the exiled misfits she has come to care for so deeply?
