Sometimes a Birthday Soda Turns Into Tough Shit

CIB lands with a plus-sized thud atop your podcast feed this week with some observations about over-leveraged parents and their kids, Congresswoman Elise Stefanik and her highly credentialed gal pals, the Shohei Ohtani contract, and our usual games and silliness.
