On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Comet Ping Pong, a pizza and ping pong restaurant in Chevy Chase, a neighborhood in Northwest D.C.

Kojo explores the local consequences of bogus news stories that have spread from Internet message boards to more mainstream outlets.
