What Grown-Ups Do

CIB is here to screech delightfully into your earholes while you baste or stuff or spatchcock that big bird of yours this week, with a few minutes lost in the WGAS NewsBag, a bit of trying to figure out what it means to live in a culture that can’t tell a cohesive story about itself, and our regular assortment of silly games and musings. 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!
