    "This just might do nobody any good." Sage words from Ed Murrow to begin a rant about the waste land television had become.  This episode is dedicated to another priceless piece of property we are laying waste to...Mother Earth.

  • Cleaning Lady Blues
    Sometimes you must assume a Different Identity to make it through the day.

Then, we visit the waiting room at the Doctor's Office. It's a long wait... (Written & Narrated by X.C. Sound Design J.H.)

À propos de Muffy Drake: Absurd Short Fiction

Bravo, you’ve found it. Deadpan humor in witty, unrelated, non-sequitur short stories not devoid of literary merit and seared with absurdity. A ”Catcher in the Wry” vibe. Since you’re here, we might as well tell you: Muffy Drake has been honored by the National Audio Theatre Festivals, known as the Sundance of Audio Fiction. That’s right, Muffy Drake has been presented with several Gold Medals - and even a Platinum in 2023. And while we’re boasting, let’s mention our short stories have been published in entropy2, Reflex Fiction, Friday Flash Fiction, Bath Flash Fiction (3 rd Prize, October 2019), the Boston Literary Magazine and elsewhere. But for Absurd Short Fiction with friction, Muffy Drake is where it’s at. Welcome! If you like tongue- in-cheek humor, you’re in for a treat. One at a time, once a week. By the way, the French call tongue-in-cheek “pinch without laughing”. Because - get this - Muffy Drake is based out of Paris. Xavier Combe is a freelance translator and conference interpreter who teaches at the University of Paris X and has worked on French public radio for over 35 years. He has published 2 non-fiction books in French (one of them has won a prize) and quite a few op- eds in the French press. Sociolinguistics, not funny at all. If you want a laugh don’t go there. Jim Hall is a 2-time Peabody award winner for his work with a investigative team and the other half of Muffy Drake that’s based in the US. That’s right, Muffy Drake is a team of two who do the writing, narration, voicing, soundscaping and original music. The French have a saying: “Humor is the last bulwark before despair” (strange, yes, but it sounds better in French). We at Muffy Drake believe humor is the best medicine. So we humbly recommend you subscribe and download one MD a week. And if you enjoy what you hear, feel free to share with, well, one or two million of your closest friends.
