Entertaining

I love all CK’s work and am eagerly awaiting his next book release so finding this podcast with so many short stories was super exciting. Fantastic narrators too, and entertaining short stories. Though the short stories are my favourite, the charismatic sections from the author with his wonderful Irish accent and quick wit are an added bonus.

The Stranger Times Stories

Short stories with different narrators. Very entertaining. I have re-listened to a few. Please write some more with dogs in the story, especially Bull breed dogs as they are often painted in a bad light. I adopted a pup from a bull breed rescue in NZ and she is wonderful, although I do not know when she will stop growing. She is odd, hardly barks, always watching, on a walk she sat down and stared at the moon - I have never seen a dog do that before.
