Someday Some Morning Sometime
Someday Some Morning Sometime: The Curious Adventures of No One in Particular is a thirteen-episode podcast, which is really an excerpt of a book that may or may not ever see the light of day. It invites the listener to meander through memories, from age naught to seventeen. Featuring blueberry muffins, invisibility, video arcades, rollerblading, and inebriated antics. Chris Brauer is the author of four books, including 'Lost Between the Stones and the Sea: A Journey of Discovery in Ireland'.
