Roommates: can't live with them, can't (afford to) live without them. They're the people who use your dishes and don't wash them. They're the people who apparently have a huge influence on your career choice and drinking habits. This hour, we're getting to know them better!

GUESTS: 

  • Ken Jennings: Colin’s college roommate
  • Kelli María Korducki: Journalist who writes about work and the family
  • Bruce Sacerdote: Professor of Economics at Dartmouth College
  • Francesca Fontánez: Social Media Editor at CT Public and a former college RA
