Piece Description

"Schadenfreude" is WBEZ-FM Chicago Public Radio's sound-rich, experimental comedy program. It currently airs Saturday afternoons on Chicago Public Radio. The show is the brainchild of CPR general manager Torey Malatia and the critically-acclaimed comedy ensemble, Schadenfreude. ===== This episode of Schadenfreude is already in progress. We bring you more comedic commentary and dialogue about the world around us. We may not be the first to comment on Lance Armstrong's bracelets, low-carb beer, Jason Bateman, Buddhism, Mom's birthday, one-hit wonders, cancer, thalidomide, iPods, Jenny Jones, or a Guiltatarian society...but we are the first to do it using sports analogies. Schadenfreude—are you two ready to order?
