Bells and Whistles (Encore) Nov 02, 2023

Show notes

Originally Aired: November 1st, 2020 (Season 6 Episode 9)

Our story tonight is called Bells and Whistles, and it’s a story about being in the right place at the right time to hear something special. It’s also about seashells on a shelf, stacks of pumpkins on storefront stoops, and the trips we take to bring each other back home. It was inspired by a conversation I had with our pre-order winner, a lovely lady named Ginger. Her memories set my imagination spinning, and this is where it landed.
