These aren't the stories your mother told you.

No, these are the other stories.

Hello, ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to the other stories.

My name is Luke, and I am your Luke for this episode of the podcast. I hope you're keeping well, I hope you're staying safe and haven't yet lost your mind if you're stuck inside your house like I am.

Your ever shrinking house of its walls and its heartbeat and its hunger.

Yes, I think my house is trying to eat me.

Anyway, this month we are welcoming a few things, actually.

We've got lots of things to welcome.

But the biggest thing is our new theme of the other stories.

As voted by you, Volume 51, Remote Places.

We also have a couple of new writers in the fold on this go-around.

Kesea, Kynastin Mitchell, J. Uffir, I hope I'm pronouncing her names correctly,

along with returning creatives, David J. 13, Ryan Harville, Kev Harrison,

narrators Eric Ventura, Justin Fife, Josh Currant and Alexandra Elroy.

We also have, the past couple of months, actually,

we've had a brand new audio editor.

We've still got Carl Hughes.

He's a pillar in the audio wizardry community.

If Dumbledore was a podcast editor, he would be Carl Hughes.

Does that make sense? I don't know. Anyway, he's taken a young, sprightly little lad called

Duncan Muggeton under his wing. And every now and again he gets him out of his wing and says can you edit this podcast for me

and Duncan's doing a cracking job I think you'll agree you may have noticed on the past few
