Short Stories Episode 18 - Flip and Flap Sep 09, 2024

Show notes

This week's story is “Flip and Flap: Dream Home Helpers” They help you turn your “now” home in to your “dream” home. And they’re also cousins or something. Although each episode of Discount Storytime is standalone, this episode occurs after the events in taco meat fountain- episode number ten. You may want to listen to that first, but you don't have to. This story probably won't make sense either way. Our sponsor for today is the newest tell all biography "Buttered On Both Sides."

UPDATE: Podcast Name Change Aug 22, 2024

Show notes

Hello listeners,

This podcast will be changing names from "Tales from the Scamverse." This name was based on the book of short stories (available on Amazon kindle) from which most of the first episode stories came from.

As the show has evolved, the concept of the "Scamverse" limits other stories I want to share with you. The podcast format will be the same. One story, same satrical and at times dark humor, and a message from our sponsor.

Our new name is "Discount Storytime", which has been tested with over 30 people, and every one of them yelled "Who the Hell are you?" and "Get out of my yard!" So I think it's a hit!
If you have questions, comments, or thoughts, please feel free to write to me by clicking on the link in the show notes. Also, an email address for "Discount Storytime" will be coming soon and I'll append it to this show note and future notes.
NOTE: The show email is now mail@discountstorytime.com
Thanks, and have a great day!
Coffee
