The Mortified Podcast

261: Most Mortified: NY vs BOS vs CHI

Mortified celebrates 20 years with a friendly beer-league-level competition that pits city vs city.  This week, Mortified's Chicago chapter faces off against Mortified NY as well as Mortified Boston in an epic three-way battle for the coveted last spot in the tournament's semifinals.  Stories include: A 2nd grader's misguided essay aimed at making retirees go back to work and pay taxes.  The diaries of a middle schooler crushing on the receptionist from The Office. Oddly religious fan letters to Katherine Hepburn. This episode is supported by Squarespace.
