Mister Ron's Basement #1558


Today we begin a NEW Monday novel serialization!

We have been meaning to read this novel almost since the beginning of the Basement Podcast -- Stephen Leacock's 1912 masterpiece, 'Sunshine Sketches of a Little Town -- starting with The Preface, and Chapter One, 'The Hostelry of Mr. Smith.'

Listen to this chapter and you will get hooked. It is truly terrific!

As always, your comments are welcome! Mail to:
