Old Tapes was a finalist for Best New Artist at the 2023 Third Coast International Audio Festival. 

Today, Funny Stories to Tell in the Dark presents a different kind of story.  Julie's dad Paul rarely talks about his older brother David, despite the fact that Paul loves to share family stories. But when her dad started digitizing old tapes from his childhood, Julie decided to ask about David for the first time.  ****CW/TW: This story includes mention of sexual assault.****
