Secondhand Storytime

Chad joins this week to tell about a central-Indiana kid who hurts himself skating, and something unexpected that happens after the incident.

My other friend Liz joins this week to tell about her godmother’s time in Berlin back when the wall was still up.

This week Liz joins the show again to tell about her buddy EB and some pranks that he pulled several years ago.  Some deal with dating and some deal with the telephone.

My buddy The Lame joins this week to tell about one of his older friends who had a childhood encounter that could have ended really badly.

Jeremy tells a story this week about some angry people who like to use the horn, and how this escalates into some serious business.

Tursh joins the show again to tell a bit of a gross one about a guy who takes a quick trip to Tijuana and makes some bad decisions.

This week Anna got in touch with me to tell a story about a woman’s harrowing experience in a shared cafeteria.

Hannah returns this week to tell a story about a poor Afghanistani soldier-in-training who misuses something at an American military base.

There was a little bit of noise in the line when I was talking to her. I couldn’t get rid of it, but I really like the story, so I’m sharing it anyway.

A whole year has gone by, so I’m marking the telling of so many good stories by so many of you with a bohemoth of a short story collection. None of these were quite enough to be their own episodes, but I still felt the need to share them. Clocking in just shy of half an hour, please enjoy this extra large birthday edition.

Sarah joins the show again to tell a pretty gross one about a girl who gets sick from an unexpected source.
