Episode 18 includes a reading of "Pre-Dude Days" which is the first true life story presented on the show. Following this, we hear the 10th and 11th laws from The Peterson Laws installments. Wrapping up the presentation is a recitation of "The Gift of the Magi" by O. Henry. Also included in this episode are the songs "Fortune Within" and "Variations on Wildwood Flower" by Kyle Fosburgh and as always "Money for Your Major Boom" by Jocko MacNelly as the background music for The Peterson Laws. The release of this episode marks an important date in this show's history. On 12/23/2015 we released our first episode making this the 1 year anniversary of Bob's Short Story Hour. Thank you to our submitting authors and musical guests, to all those who have done interviews on the show, to all those that have helped me with editing and ideas, my wife Tara who encourages me and keeps me on track getting my many tasks done, to all those who have donated to the project so far, and most importantly - to YOU, Listeners. Without you, none of this would be possible, nor would it matter. Thank you for listening, and as always, have a good night!
