This episode features two stories taken from our October 2012 show, told with aplomb and fearlessness by writer Cory Casciato and comedian Mara Wiles. There are some wonky sound issues, but the stories are good enough that you'll stick with 'em.

The intro and outro music was produced and graciously provided by Sans Seruf, and you can find more beats for your earholes over at bandcamp.
