Welcome to Campfire Classics, a Literary Comedy Podcast!!

The breaks are over! The team is back! And...well, you read the title and your here anyway...

Heather picked a witchy little Nathaniel Hawthorne ditty (can you use that word as a story?) for Ken to read. Which he does. Eventually. First your hosts chat about life, the universe, and...you know...stuff.

The story is actually quite good.  Well, the stories usually are. Along the way Heather and Ken discuss demon Pontiacs, mystical drug dealers, and and the relative merits of owning multiple staffs. If you know what I mean.

"Young Goodman Brown" was first published in 1835.

Oooo...Ken is sneaky this week. He does a thing with the fun facts you might not be expecting.

Then Heather reads the Story, and you know it's gonna be good, because the week we've got "Hop-Frog" by Edgar Allan Poe.

Talking points include a busy week, a ball mask, and a gimp chimp.

"Hop-Frog" was first published on March 17th, 1849.

Always smell things that smell.

I think that's the moral of this episode.

Please email me to tell me if I'm wrong at [email protected].

This week Heather has a story for Ken to read, and somehow they just seem to magically agree that it was written by a fictional character on a terrible '90s sitcom instead of by Mr. George Pope Morris. Which seems rude and dismissive, but clearly I care more about this show than either of the hosts do.

Anyway...

Ken reads the story and Heather cannot contain herself from laughing at silly words, so, you know, the show.

And a bunch of other stuff.

"The Little Frenchman and His Water Lots" was written by George Pope Morris and published in 1839.

This week, we are down with the Flipper Dipper Dip.

Okay, that's the niceties out of the way.

Today, Ken has chosen a story for Heather by pulp author Randall Garrett. It is called "The Time Snatcher". And for some reason Heather has chosen this week to see how many accents she can fit into one hour.

Good luck everyone.

Your talking points include blackmailing Robert Zemeckis, pickup lines that work...kinda, and a tightly guarded erection.

"The Time Snatcher" was published in Imagination Stories of Science and Fantasy in February 1957, extensive research has uncovered no evidence of an active copyright.

WARNING

Skip the 40 seconds from 1:20-2:00.  It nothing but two crass jokes that you will not be a better person for listening to. They were left in because the podcast is contractually obligated to meow out a couple words every few episodes and we were behind on our quota.

Now that you've been warned, I return you to our regularly scheduled blurb.

Oh, Henry...

Wait, no! O. Henry! He's back!

This week's story is called "Let Me Feel Your Pulse" and it's written by O. Henry.

Ken reads, and along the way your hosts discuss bird orifices, medical (mal)practice, and the relative sanity of treating insanity.

"Let Me Feel Your Pulse" was published in 1910.

We're back at the grindstone. Cranking out those high quality low brow jokes you expect and...love? Tolerate? Fast forward through?

Whatever.

We're back to our two host witless banter format after a few weeks off.

This week heather is reading a story by a woman named Anna Katharine Green. It's called "Midnight in Beauchamp Row". Does that word look French to you?

The story comes with some unexpected twists and some expected pointless conversation topics.

How long is your rod?

"Midnight in Beauchamp Row" was published in 1895.
