Storytelling Podcasts

I am a public school teacher who tells strange, darkly funny or just dark stories about education and other topics that interest me. Sometimes it's fiction or Sci-fi, sometimes I just remix what I hear other people say. Sometimes I pretend that I am receiving these mysterious transmissions from the night sky, which is why I interrupt them with radio static. Most of the music tracks are original creations made on Synthscape, Garageband or some other app that requires minimal talent. Sometimes I download a CC track from YouTube and give attribution in the description. Most of the other voices are my immediate family--son, daughter, wife....You can subscribe to the RSS or download the podcast on ITunes. Thanks for listening.
