03 – Late For Your Own Funeral & Agony Uncle

Hello! Here’s the third installment of the Short Story Cast, a podcast that showcases great short stories.

This episode features:

Late for your own funeral

Ever wondered what it would be like to attend your own funeral? Just me? Ah well, never mind. This story explores the idea anyway. It was inspired by a post I saw on Reddit from a guy that claimed to have actually attended his own funeral.

Agony Uncle

I always think Agony Aunts and Uncles give awful advice to people, so I thought it would be fun to write a few questions to a fictional agony uncle that is a bit different. The advice is still terrible but in a different kind of a way.
