Comedian and NY Times best-selling author, Charlie Berens, brings his brand of Midwest Nice to a new hour full of stories about growing up one of 12 children, sneaking a beer into church, gambling with his grandmother, and why his dad’s love for the Green Bay Packers was key to a happy childhood…. oh, and how his ADHD helped him understand A.I.
