  <description><![CDATA[<p><b>Rambler: Live from the City That Never Works</b> is an unpolished audio diary from inside a city addicted to being addicted. A sporadic monologue that tries to capture the quiet panic of catching fulfillment while staying busy. Equal parts dry humor and sincerity. We are not interested in answers, but I am going to ask a lot of questions, and you can bet on me rambling.</p>]]></description>
