I must admit that, at the age of almost 30, I am a semi-regular Kids' Corner listener. (XPN is always on in the car, and I tend to be running evening errands just when Kids' Corner comes on. And hey, the music is catchy!) I don't ever seem to catch Joe's guest spots, but I love spooky stories so I'll have to make an extra effort to hear this one!
