2018 Holiday Advent Calendar Unveiling: December 7
So kind of a weird story today. In fact, it’s not even really a story, but I felt like I had somewhat insightful comments on it nonetheless.
I absolutely loved today’s story (ies) from Stephen Leacock-a Canadian treasure for sure! I was just talking about him to FictionFan a few weeks ago, so very timely indeed.
I’m going to go ahead and say this was my favourite segment to date. Why? Because the wonderful Chris dela Torre made me feel so comfortable in front of that mic, and I got to talk about some of the fabulous people that I’ve had the chance to work with over the past few years,…

haha me too!
Sounds… hmm, I’m trying so hard to find a polite synonym for awful… But I do love the idea of the Circle of Neglect!! 😂
hahah yes it’s got a particular ring to it, doesn’t it?
