Show notes

Hey, it’s Amy Newmark with your Chicken Soup for the Soul, and today I’m going to share a couple of stories with you from our newest book, Chicken Soup for the Soul: Well That Was Funny.

There’s no holding back in these pages, so prepare for lots of good clean (and not so clean) fun. And that brings me to today’s stories, which fall into the category of bathroom humor, although way cuter than that.
