This episode is based on the World War One Wilfred Owen War Poem Dulce et decorum est. Owen was killed a week before the armistice.

11 Central Ave #60.  Wilfred Owen's war poem.

A four minute weekly radio comic strip. ...It's what Steve Inskeep and Renee Montagne might be hotly debating as they walk into the studio -- just before they get on mic. 

This short radiostrip plays out in the kitchen of 11 Central Ave, the home of an extended family where a hodgepodge of other characters regularly drops in.As they rush around in the morning drinking coffee, reading the paper, looking for their shoes, they're talking about everything from the most compelling topics of our time (the Supreme Court nominee and his views on abortion) to the most ridiculous (mommy blogging), and everything in between -- covenant marriage, teens hooking up, the next pandemic, the fog of internet dating.
It's a wry look at America's zeitgeist. Come hear something new "11 Central Ave" - the radio comic strip.  Show airs on public radio WBEZ in Chicago, and WBUR in Boston
