IN THIS EPISODE: Tonight, I return to the campfire. No music or sound effects, no fancy computer editing to remove all of my mistakes while narrating – it’s just me, you, the sounds of this fire and whatever nature wants to send our way for background ambiance on this cold winter night in northern Illinois at Marlar Manor. When I narrated the first Fireside Frights episode, it was just a one-time thing, to be different, but I have had so much positive feedback – more than most regular episodes – that I’ve decided to make this a regular thing. So maybe once a month or so we will return to my backyard firepit. And in this episode I’ll share stories from you – my Weirdo family.

| 1:46.5 | going to try and do this maybe once a month or so. As for the stories themselves, well, |
