FYI: The Murphy Brown Podcast

Back in February, Lauren and Jesi talked about Nancy Meyers' and Charles Shyer's 1987 classic Baby Boom, starring Diane Keaton, on our Patreon. This was in context to now it represents a period piece of the time in which Murphy Brown was created in 1987 for the 1988-1989 TV season. But at the same time, we felt releasing it here on the main feed as a tribute to Diane Keaton was fitting.
