Episode description

Baker requests more details about Mara's 6th grade fiction about Mr. Schneider the jewel thief, then "sharing is caring" about art we'd like steal and a new TV show we like to watch. We try to figure out how the Mona Lisa got so popular in the first place, Baker compares the Mona Lisa to The Beatles, then Mara deep dives into the strange and true history of Mona Lisa's disappearance, with cameos by Pablo Picasso and Franz Kafka.
