We'll talk Christmas carols – the good, the bad, the unlistenable – with actors Jane Lynch ("Glee") and Kate Flannery ("The Office"). They're in Seattle for "A Swingin' Little Christmas" at the Triple Door Theater.

Then, does our polarized state of the union mean we're at risk of another civil war? It's a worrisome question that we'll put to historians Judy Giesberg and David Blight.

And "fake news" didn't begin with President Trump. We'll talk with writer and poet Kevin Young, author of "Bunk: The Rise of Hoaxes, Humbug, Plagiarists, Phonies, Post-Facts and Fake News."
