# Episode #419 – Cat Person, with Hallie Haglund

Stuart was antipodes-bound, for his Australian rambles, when we taped this one, but fear not! In his absence we recruited [Hallie Haglund](https://halliehaglund.substack.com/), noted STAR OF THE SHOW to discuss [Cat Person](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt14647404/) with us, and thank god we did, because left to our own devices, we doubt that two dudes would be quite as effective at exploring the dissection of gender w/r/t hetero dating relationships that Cat Person brings to the table (straight from the hit [New Yorker short story of the same name](https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2017/12/11/cat-person)). Did we do it justice? Only one way to find out!
