Demanding Term Limits for Podcasters
It has somehow been a week since the last episode of Cast Iron Brains, so here we find ourselves once again. Today we yap about the NFL draft, dip briefly into the WGAS NewsBag, talk about Kevin Smith’s monologue about trauma, and poke fun at some silliness in the Washington Post and over on NPR. 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!
