Mulliner’s Buck-U-Uppo — An Audio Podcast Story K5ND's Short Story Podcasts

It’s been way too long since I last recorded an audio podcast story. This story isn’t newly recorded, but it’s a good one and I thought I’d bring it to your attention.
P.G. Wodehouse’s Mr. Mulliner character is a favorite of mine, among so many simply delightful characters in his long list of stories. This one starts out simply enough with a letter from Aunt Angela to Augustine Mulliner:
My dear Augustine (wrote Angela Mulliner),
I have been thinking so much about you lately, and I cannot forget that, when I saw you last, you seemed very fragile and deficient in vitamins. I do hope you take care of yourself.
I have been feeling for some time that you ought to take a tonic, and by a lucky chance Wilfred has just invented one which he tells me is the finest thing he has ever done. It is called Buck-U-Uppo, and acts directly on the red corpuscles. It is not yet on the market, but I have managed to smuggle a sample bottle from Wilfred’s laboratory, and I want you to try it at once. I am sure it is just what you need.
Your affectionate aunt,
Angela Mulliner
P.S.-You take a tablespoonful before going to bed, and another just before breakfast.
And, this tonic turns Augustine from a sheep into a lion. Listen to the rest of the story to hear how it all turns out. I’m confident you’ll enjoy every single minute and laugh out loud a few times.
Why not download the audio file and listen to it while your driving to that rare grid activation?
Whether you’re driving or sitting at home with a toddy, enjoy.
BTW — You can find my other narrated short stories on this website under the Podcasts menu item. You can also find them and subscribe via Apple iTunes at K5ND’s Short Story Podcasts.
