Belief in the Divinity of Caffeine Free Diet Christ

CIB returns after a brief Thanksgiving-imposed hiatus to yap about why it's never the parents’ fault except when it’s definitely the parents’ fault, who to definitely-not-racistly root for in the World Cup, and a story on Marketplace neatly shows how some people work to solve inefficiencies in the market while others limply wish the world was a different, better place. All that along with plenty of other diversions and silliness, including a brief STATE OF THE PODCAST discussion at the end. Listen, if you must!
