    <description>This is a funny, sweet, sad storytelling podcast where a genius, a storyteller, and a buffoon attempt to reconcile their tastes and aspirations with the fact that, for now, and for reasons, they live as they do. 
The world is a puzzle that can be solved, but you have to work at it. It’s a grind. Talking the things that annoy, amuse, confuse, and bedazzle you through is part of the alchemy that spins your lead into gold. This is us trying to do that. Except, at the end of the day, that’s all bullshit. And you can’t just hope that it will work out. You have to push and push and push, except when you don’t. And that’s when you have to just shrug it off and believe that it will probably be ok.

  <description>Let’s talk about Curfews.  Spoiler: Curfews create crime. 
Heads up:  I know swearing is not unusual for this show. But this one seems to have an extraordinary amount of swears. Just FYI. Lots of appropriately wielded grown-up language in this episode.*
 In this episode of It Will Probably Be OK, we put aside our lingering anxiety about that darn pandy and spend some quality time instead worrying about police brutality, white supremacy, and what you should do when someone orders you to go home. Let’s talk about Curfews. Do they Work? Are they simply an escalation of the police state? And what impact do they have on crime reduction?
Mini Topics
* Nick observes that in a 20-year-long mirror, the tradition of wearing a date’s underwear on the outside of their suit coat seems surprisingly weird. 
* Nkenge wants to talk about egg nog -- specifically how well egg nog holds it’s liquor. 
From there, we forget to come home before dark. And oh, boy. It does get dark.
