Episode 241 - Funny Business with Nicole

We start the podcast talking with our own Nicole Chrolavicius about her ventures into writing humorous articles this last year. She's had seven pieces published with an eighth one coming out soon. We then go into our usual discussion about the contests and our favorite cartoons from the current week's issue of the New Yorker.
