CIB is here on a day of much rejoicing to yap about morose and awful things, including the Memphis police killing of Tyre Nichols, parents being arrested for letting their kids walk down the street, Rick Ross’s thoughts on Teslas and other “smart cars,” and the HBCU that briefly thought it could rehabilitate an irredeemable racist quarterback recruit.

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!
