Hello everybody. I'm Brendan Francis Nuneum.

And I am Rico Galliano. And recently it occurred to us that we've been rude hosts.

So true.

You see, we've been throwing these audio dinner parties for like two years now,

and never once have we given you the opportunity to chip in so much as a bottle of wine.

A ghastly oversight on our part.

Very uncouth.

But one we've remedied. Here's what you can do.

Head to your local wine shop.

Select a bottle of wine that you'd like to bring to our dinner party.

Write down the price and then go to dinner party download.org and donate that exact amount.

It's very simple.

We also enjoy extremely rare and expensive scotch.

Oh, that must be you.

Welcome to the party.

Here's your icebreaker. What do you get when you cross a brown chicken with a brown cow?

Brown chicken, brown cow.

I'm Rico Galliano.

I'm Brendan Francis Nuneum and from American Public Media, this is the dinner party download,

the show that helps you win your next dinner party.

Our icebreaker, this week came from Alex Axles of Evil Cohen, co-author of a new book

about roller derby.
