Paul accidentally dropped Tuesday’s episode on Wednesday… so now time means nothing.

On today’s quick commute down I-95, the conversation turns into something surprisingly relatable: comfort TV, background movies, and the shows we all endlessly rewatch without even thinking about it.

From the classic game show Cash Cab to endless reruns of The Avengers, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone, and Seinfeld, Paul talks about the weird comfort of throwing on something you’ve already seen a hundred times while scrolling your phone or passing out on the couch.

Why do we do it?
 Why are the same movies always on TV?
 And does anybody actually WATCH them anymore… or are they just background noise now?
