In his previous collection, Not Quite so Stories, David S. Atkinson twisted reality with small absurdities. Roses Are Red, Violets Are Stealing Loose Change from My Pockets While I Sleep leaves sanity completely behind, pondering modern life through surreal humorous flash fiction involving Margaret Thatcher, jam appearing in boxers overnight, Gene Roddenberry, and more.

Flula Borg's fascination with America and its "peoples" have warmed hearts nationwide. A frequent guest of Conan O’Brien, the German-born actor and multi-talented entertainer (think Sacha Baron Cohen's Borat crossed with Billy Eichner) fell in love with the United States upon his first visit as a young boy.

A few years ago Lia & Jeremy quit their jobs, put their stuff in storage, & took off on a year-long honeymoon. (It was basically a disaster, but they had fun anyway.)

On this bi-weekly podcast Lia and Jeremy share their most ridiculous travel stories and practical tips to help you avoid making all of their terrible, terrible mistakes - plus all of the weird history they've learned along the way!

A failed suicide, a failed writer, and a failed husband, Ches is tragically depressed - that is, until he finds his muse in punk rocker/militia-marketer/free-spirit Thalia. Ches is haunted by Thalia's ghost - or perhaps a hallucination - and grows obsessed with writing her story...but due to his increasingly erratic behavior, he is quickly self-destructing. The pressures of public-school IT work, a middle-school revolution, an ex-wife, a crazed father, and an emotional crime spree culminate in a fantastic meta twist, creating a surprising end to this fabulously witty dark comedy.
