7: Episode 7: Happiness Is a Warm Tub

Our investigation culminates with us settling once more into the bathtub, which has the best view of the end of the world.

We finally talk to an actress who’s done a tub scene: Autumn Reeser, whose experience in a time-loop movie woke her up to the time loop she was living in her real life.

Then, a quick shower over a sea of fog and we’re ready at last to face the everyday apocalypse we’ve been afraid to confront for more than three years: Why, on this earth or any other, is Amy in the bath?

A sublime question for a sublimating age.

News clips from CNN’s 1993 report on “Internet,” ABC7 News on loneliness, The Atlantic on sex, and Fox Business on birth rates.

"Why Is Amy in the Bath?" is produced by Grab Bag Collab and Because It's True Productions.
