Worry not, podcast fans—CIB is here to yap about the news of the week, among much else. The news of the week is so stupid, in fact, that we keep the topical stuff mercifully short and spend most of this episode complaining about Imperial Disney’s synergistic CONTENT MAW manipulations, bad football kicking, and a new spin on an old favorite game. Listen, if you must! Has something we said, or failed to say, made you FEEL something? You can tell us all about it on Facebook or Twitter, leave a comment on the show’s page on our website, or you can send us an email here. Enjoy!
