The Yuletide Cherries is a special episode to celebrate the winter holiday season. Lady Cleges and her faithful bard, Niko, have nothing to sustain them this Winter's Solstice night except good intentions. When Lady Cleges meditates underneath a tree and looks into the starry sky, wondrous things happen.  This audio fiction story is meant for all ages to enjoy together. 

Ted is learning audio editing as part of his job skills training with Merakey. When you review, comment, and share his podcast episodes, it encourages him to learn and practice more.  Thank you for listening.

Uncle Scary consumed the entire month of October, much to Lindsay's chagrin. Even Ted thinks Uncle Scary is getting to be a bit much. Ted tested out Alitu, visited Linvilla Orchards, and read a Scientific American article about autism masking from the future. We reminisce about one of our favorite childhood books, and Ted is still not sure about the latest version of Fraggle Rock.
