Christmas Special - Reading Reddit's Spooky Stories
Merry Christmas! Here's a bonus episode as a christmas present from us to you.
It's actually something we recorded on Halloween where we found 5 spooky stories from reddit and read them to each other. Unsure of when to release it (since Kieran didn't get organised enough to release it on Halloween) we decided to make it a christmas special, we had a lot of fun and we think you'll love it.
