The Everyman Tales Podcast Everyman Hi, I’m Everyman. I’m just a regular guy. That’s where my name comes from... just a regular Everyman. However, I do have a special gift I’d like to share with you. See, ever since I can remember, I’ve loved to tell stories. From simple bedtime stories to my kids when they were younger, to world-building, over-the-top descriptive adventures that take the mind on a grand journey, tale-telling is a true joy for me. And, I hope, listening to them becomes a joy for you! These stories are meant for bedtime, daytime, road trips, downtime and anytime in between! Get ready to engage your imagination!! Welcome... to The Everyman Tales! Bindle by Herbert George Jenkins Mentor New York Herbert Jenkins' most popular fictional creation was Mr. Joseph Bindle, who first appeared in a humorous novel in 1916 and in a number of sequels. In the preface to the books, T. P. O'Connor said that "Bindle is the greatest Cockney that has come into being through the medium of literature since Dickens wrote Pickwick Papers". The stories are based on the comedic drama of life at work, at home and all the adventures that take place along the way. Bindle leaves a path of good-natured destruction behind him and walks away unscathed every time. He is not above embellishing and loves the joke. He refers to jokes as the anesthetic that allows him to endure the operation of life. When he sets about fixing things, they had better well stay fixed or they'll have him to deal with. Indeed, he is a sort of superhero of the Everyman. Let the hilarity begin! (Summary by Don Jenkins) Taking Time Voyage Media Time travel exists... but it's too dangerous and unreliable to try with anyone valuable. TAKING TIME is a comedy/drama/sci-fi podcast that's IDIOCRACY meets BACK TO THE FUTURE.
