Episode description

Amy Herzog's script 4000 Miles was a finalist for the 2013 Pulitzer Prize for Drama. Leo has just biked across the continental United States, and experienced a life-altering tragedy along the way. His grandmother Vera lives alone in New York, and is incredibly isolated. Herzog crams these two strong-willed people together inside Vera's apartment, and what follows is a beautiful character study.  Join us this week as Jackson and Jacob try to untangle the complicated lives of Leo and Vera.
