Thanks for listening to episode 48. It couldn't have been done without the help of the following folks:

The Chicago Podcast Cooperative. Like this show? You might like An Hour with Your Ex. Comedians Mel Evans and Mark Colomb force each other to watch their favorite movies and TV. The title started as a joke but led to a marriage. Itís still just a podcast.
