Why are Sara and Chad the Bird qualified to mildly educate through comedic infotainment?

Sara wrote for Mystery Science Theater 3000. She’s published four books, including “Real Artists Have Day Jobs (And Other Awesome Things They Don’t Teach You in School).”
A former talk radio host and producer, she’s been heard on BBC Radio, NPR, WTF with Marc Maron and other podcasts. TV credits include “Law & Order: SVU,” “Bill Nye Saves the World,” and more. She used to teach high school and holds an M.A. from Teachers College at Columbia University. Sara is the real deal!

Chad the Bird is, as Rob Dean of Neonsplatter.com puts it, “A mix of Bill Hicks, Kermit The Frog, David Byrne, and a a shot of Malört." He, along with his co-host, will be bringing that energy to every single show - come experience it yourself! Or, as Jill Hopkins of Vocalo Chicago says: “Here’s the thing about Chad the Bird, is that he is very timely with his topics and is also weirdly wise for a bird puppet from Southern California”

Two of Chicago's most hilarious entertainers, Sara and Chad the Bird are creating one-of-a-kind comedy.
