Hello and welcome to the Drabblecast episode 346. The Drabble

Cast is a weekly audio fiction magazine that brings strange stories by

strange authors to strange listeners such as yourself.

I'm your host, Norm Sherman.

Well folks, a little late on the holiday episode this year. Sorry about that.

I guess I got a little wrapped up in, you know, the holiday.

Anyways, this year we're bringing you a story with feeling.

You'll see what I did there later on and be like, oh norm, oh yes, but for now I want to wrap up the year real quick if you don't mind.

Now I've never been one to particularly like dwelling on the past.

Skeletons used to be babies once, for Christ's sakes.

I'm more the type, as I'm sure a lot of you fellow sci-fi geeks out there are,

who likes to look forward towards the future. We'll get to that.

2014 was one hell of a crazy year for old Uncle Norm, one where I got a big new day job, picked

everything up and moved eight hours away to a whole new state,

with all sorts of ancillary mayhem following in its wake.

And as I've mentioned before on the show, and as you've probably noticed yourself yourself it's been kind of hard to keep the

weekly show, well weekly the past several months.

It has nothing to do with internal travel systems or the great people all helping behind the scenes

or even a lack of donations and listener support from you folks

travel cast B-sides has actually been a priority for me to keep slinging out

content to each month because I appreciate all of you $10 a month

listeners out there so much keeping the show going with your generosity.
