Originally Aired: November 1st, 2020 (Season 6 Episode 9) Our story tonight is called Bells and Whistles, and it’s a story about being in the right place at the right time to hear something special. It’s also about seashells on a shelf, stacks of pumpkins on storefront stoops, and the trips we take to bring each other back home. It was inspired by a conversation I had with our pre-order winner, a lovely lady named Ginger. Her memories set my imagination spinning, and this is where it landed.  Subscribe for ad-free, bonus, and extra-long episodes now! https://www.nothingmuchhappens.com/premium-subscriptionPurchase Our Book: https://bit.ly/Nothing-Much-HappensSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
