    An explanation, a thank you and the next chapter

    Hallo ma friends.
    This is for those who don't know that A-Mirths and Monsters is no more and B-Why. I wanted to explain the situation but also wanted to give a thank you to you all and talk about what I'll be doing next.
    A heads up before you listen, this about Finn my wee man and him not being around any more.
    Thank you for everything and I hope you continue with me on my journey.
    Slantie, your good health,
    CK and the furry crew

    Hello all, for this month of December I'll be releasing a Christmas related episode each Monday plus a little something extra on Christmas day.

    As always for everything Mirths please use the link tree. I'm still running the BIG RAFFLE where you can win a plethora of prizes including merch, a build a bear, air pods for just a $5 entry. Half of all proceeds will be going to the cancer charity, Friends of Anchor.
    Thanks everyone,
    CK and the furry crew.

    Mirths and Monsters presents the Squonk part 1

    Mirthers old and new! Join me and the furry crew as we learn about the saddest of all the cryptids, the Squonk. A cryptid so sad about itself that it can't stop crying.
    Let's investigate this fascinating creature and see if there is more to it than meets the weeping eye.
    Part 2 will be with you next week.
    Enjoy,
    CK and the furry crew

    Mirths and Monsters halloween presents the tell tale heart

    Mirths and Monsters halloween presents the tell tale heart

    In this spooky-ish episode it was meant to be The black cat by Edgar Allen Poe but my own black cat, Rey, read it and was horrified! So, we compromised and went with the tell tale heart.
    Rey does chip in during the reading, it's the tell tale heart but you've never heard it like this.
    Happy halloween!

MaryCotton ,

Once it there was a legend

This is perfect for lovers of folklore, legends and myth. The host has a lovely manner and performance still (not to mention a wonderful accent). And of course there is a dog.
