RE: Ham Day & A Joyous Life

Dear Pennies & Pallers, In this week’s first letter, a Pen Pal explains their annual Ham Day tradition, a day devoted to eating ham with friends. Our Pen Pal wants to know: what time of year is best for a Ham Day? In our second letter, a Pen Pal receives the impossibly horrible news that his mother only has months left to live — and asks how to fulfill the promise he made with her to lead a joyous life. We also discuss: being sweet dumb, Uncle Mike’s conversational skills, ham flavored ice cream, avant-garde pranks, and more. We wish you well, sincerely, Your Pen Pals Daniel Van Kirk & Rory ScovelSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
