Introducing "Who's the Ass?" from our friends over at Spiked Eggs!
Desperate for cash, a miller and his daughter turn to the Internet to pump up the sale price for their tired, old donkey. They instantly become an online sensation, yet trouble awaits them on their way to market. An angry mob of animal rights advocates is hot on their heels. A slippery politician, hell-bent on cashing in on the hoopla, races to intercept them. And pot-stirring host Katie Klickit whips up a snarling Greek chorus on her drone-spying Internet web series. Meanwhile, the clock is ticking. Can father and daughter cross the river ahead and reach the market it in time? Or will it be a bridge too far?Featuring the voice of John Kennard, who plays Gunter in Happy Medium!Listen to Spiked Eggs on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Audible, or your favorite platform.25 min - S1.E2 • Behind the Wheel

About Happy Medium: the Adventures of Melancholy Helen Polly
From the publisher's feed
NEW BRANDING, SAME SHOW!
An autistic medium who'd rather not solve murders, but here we are. Helen Polly roams the U.S. in a purple (or mauve, or...don't ask) school bus with her enormous talking dog and a dead drag queen who never stops talking. Throw in a PI her mother hired to tail her, and Helen's got more paranormal drama than she signed up for.
