    About this Episode

    Johnny and Mike are joined by long-time Town of Highland resident and town council member, Fred Bosch, and their neighbor, celebrity chef Justin Chapple, who talk holiday cooking and more! Mike ponders how long it will take before he gets to be considered a Barryville local (answer: probably never) and Johnny takes on Kanye West in a hot take on the news. All this, plus the Yulan Brass Duo live in the studio warming it up for the big Christmas tree lighting and the debut of Mike’s super fun punk rock mix of the EBIB theme song, “Everybody’s Talkin’." Can your heart stand it???
