Review of The Crabby Hermit considers coming out of his shellThis is a nice spirited first person style essay about a guy who puts in his time at work but is irked by a friend who doesn't have to work, cuts the classes his parents are paying for and spends his evenings -- this one included -- getting hammered. I like the piece, it has a good pace and is a fun listen. It seemed to end abruptly, but that might just be that I was enjoying myself and wasn't ready for it to be over. |

Review of The Crabby Hermit considers coming out of his shell
Utterly engaging narrator, with a unique story, perspective, and voice. I appreciated the range of his voice, how he broke the stream of his narration with unexpected interjections.
This would fit as a "story" segment on a literary-type show in an urban radio market.
This was on of my favorites among those chosen by PRX for podcast.
