James Geary, author of I Is an Other: The Secret Life of Metaphor and How It Shapes the Way We See the World and Geary's Guide to the World's Great Aphorists, joins Daniel Ford for Friday Morning Coffee to discuss his new book Wit's End: What Wit is, How it Works, and Why We Need It.

Caitlin Malcuit also talks about the efforts to keep Lowell’s UnchARTed Gallery in its current location in downtown Lowell, as well as other holiday charity-giving ideas.

“Keep faith in yourself and your abilities and your aspirations.”
