Love Research – Karen Sorensen, dubbed “Love Research Lady” by Time Out New York, has conducted research on personal accounts of love. Who’s your love idol? What’s the most you’ve done for love?

If you’re lucky, Karen will also conduct her research on volunteers from the UnionDocs audience.
Julia Haltigan – Upcoming vocal vixen sings to us about the nature of love and she’s left the sappyness behind.
