Chris Thompson, local comedian, script writer, cultural commentator and blogger at the Chronicles of Nonsense, joins us in the studio to discuss Super Bowl LII, the post Super Bowl "celebratory riots," and how they connect to local events. Specifically, we discuss the pattern of the public response to protests and social gatherings in Rochester -- e.g. the Puerto Rican Festival vs. the St. Patrick's Day Parade -- and question the role of police in all of this. We also throw general shade at the Pats and Justin Timberlake, because why not?
We referred to the following article by Chris during the show: http://www.chroniclesofnonsense.com/2017/08/i-read-essay-about-riot-that-didnt.html
