HumorUs — Funny Short Stories

Comedy is the oldest trick in the book (or the short story), and HumorUs goes digging for the funniest classic tale with a few new ones sprinkled in. Each episode is one short story, narrated with care and a raised eyebrow. Bureaucratic guinea pigs that simply will not stop multiplying, courtesy of Ellis Parker Butler. A backwoods divorce that doubles right back into a wedding, by way of O. Henry. A shipwreck that strands exactly the wrong man, from the dry wit of W.W. Jacobs. A committee so devoted to oversight it forms a committee to oversee itself. Some of these tales are a hundred years old. Some are brand new. All of them prove the same stubborn little fact, that a good laugh never goes out of print. So pour something, settle in, and let the great humorists, famous and forgotten alike, humor us. A comedy fiction podcast from Short Storyverses. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
