Hello all! Here's another bonus episode, reading (and hopefully having a chuckle at) some silly magazine stories. If that's not your thing, don't worry. There's another classic ghost story coming along VERY SOON. CONTENT ADVICE: 😳Occasional rudeness. If you missed the last special, find it here: th-cam.com/video/HuZxT8v35k4/w-d-xo.html
I was drawn by the squirrel thumbnail. Just last week, a lady whom I help out( a bit if a hoarder) had evidence of squirrels nesting inside her car. I didn’t have the heart to tell her. And a co worker had a squirrel insider her cars engine. The furry little wiseguys!
Another splendid tour de force of aspirational journalism. I do worry about the degree of editing - or possibly the entire provenance - of these stories (on one magazine I used to work for, we never had any letters for the correspondence page, so I made them up). Nonetheless, immensely entertaining (I particularly enjoy the asides and regional accents), thank you very much Mr LeStrange.
Lol, I listsened again as I fell asleep and woke in the second one last time - I don't think I've laughed so hard in forever. More, please! Thanks, Jasper L'Comique, absolutely one of my all time favs of yours.
@@GingerTomMom DITTO!!! Jasper had me laughing the hardest I've laughed in over a year. So I definitely agree that I would love to hear him do these more often actually 😅✌️
I believe this is the first one I've listened to you doing in this format, you're Carefree wonderful Antics and commentary I find you refreshing, entertaining and downright hilarious at times thank you and I'm not even through the first story I had deposit just to tell you thank you and what a wonderful job you're doing entertaining us😊❤
🎶knock three times, on the ceiling if you want me.....🎵 The lav story had me, especially your quip about the whole family queuing for the bathroom, and mum all wrinkled up clutching the Radox bottle. Little disappointed in Jean's storytelling abilities. I mean, she could have ramped it up with a bit of embellishment; waking up to the squirrel at the end of the bed holding a hammer and a roll of duct tape, perhaps. I would have made a nut roast, but some do gooder would probably have called the RSPCA on me... Enjoy these videos immensely, thank you Jasper. You're very witty - love the accents and little comments and asides. 💕
@@thehangingparsiple5692 Nut roast. Of course! Missed that one 😆. Also missed the chance to say "Thrifty Great Granny Griffiths". L'esprit de l'escalier in action...
Oh Jasper, thank you so much!! I love these wacky silly stories and your renditions are hysterical. Please please continue with them! Thanks for all you do.
I have to tell you Jasper LeStrange how much I love you narrating and your humor. I do not know if you know or ever heard Miss Worm's channel but I believe you two could do a wonderful collaboration on a story or stories because of you telling of stories, an your humorous nature. All the best to your channel.
@@EnCryptedHorror yup! Lol! That'll do it. Reminds me of the time I had the same experience while stationed in Iraq. "Nerve-shredding" is the proper term.
Mr Jasper are these them nice ladies who write in with personal stories? They are wonderful ! In the same vein as the nice ladies who have adopted a Sasquatch family and give them a pancake breakfast every Sunday.
I love these bit of fun stories. The more sarcastic you become, the better! Let your inner snark rise. I do think you led with the best, though. How can you top a marauding squirrel?
Well those really were dreck, weren't they? I thought the New York story would end with the revelation that Steph couldn't have seen the medium at the Spiritualist church because said medium had died the night before. (That's what comes of reading too many half-decent ghost stories.) Oh, well thanks for injecting a few dirty jokes, Jasper. And I did sing along even before I was asked.
Oh my goodness Jasper 😂😂😂 I'm still laughing 🤣🤣 It's past 3:30 in the morning and I'm so surprised I didn't wake my whole family up with my laughing. O my goodness I've gotta try to fall asleep but I have to tell you that I haven't laughed like that in a long time, maybe because I happened to be in the bathroom when the second story was being read just made it all the more hilarious 😂 Thank you for that truly 😅🤣🫶✌️
Jeez Louise! These ladies are a whole lot smarter than I am! They get paid for this stuff?! Here I am, never waste money on a dross magazine like that, swaping spooky stories for free! Oh the price of dignity. I'm doing it all wrong. Thanks Jasper, keep that wit sharp. As always I'm looking forward to your next presentation of spookiness. 🖤👻💀
WT.... "I know some of you may find it ... strange, but I've only felt loved and warmed by my toilet dwelling ghost..." Holy Lavoritories, Batman. And your asides! Lol. I LOVED this, thought I'd dislike it, MORE PLEASE!
LMAOOOOO I'm listening to this during the workday, and when that one person said she'd always dreamed of visiting America, I said "RECONSIDER" out loud. I'm glad she had a nice vacation but if she didn't get some $1 pizza then she missed out.
Oh lordy! I laughed myself quite silly (not a long trip, that - but still ...). Thanks so much for doing the voices and tangents - that is how I've always done oral storytelling (just ask my poor children who had to deal with Hagrid or Voldemort going off about how hard it was to make pants out of a buffalo, or once having been given sunglasses as a gag gift [reading Hagrid's dialogues for more than two pages at a time always made my throat hurt, but god the laughs were worth it!]). Really enjoyed this, and hope you do it again! p.s. admitting I am just old enough to know the rest of the chorus of that song...not ashamed, just well saturated in 70s culture as a child.
Our cute garden visitor has now been named Jasper in honour of yours truly. Big mistake! Yesterday scratched along the fence I read, bleedin’ peanuts again! I’m sick of em, toasted buns is what I likes and if I don’t get the goods you’ll be getting a visit from my mate ‘ Carsey Colin’ Thanks a million L’Estrange 😂
I went back and listened to your Easter Spectacular and it’s clear the illustrious tradition of British Ladies’ paranormal biographical literature has sadly declined 😅.
Marital Alert! Hubbie: I thought you loved that channel for spooky, ghost stories- whoo, oo, oo hoo! Wife: yes. Ahem, what's your problem ( 1 rèason I love Strange Bedfellows tale- nasty emoji over rubbish bin, etc) -SO, I MUST PUT THESE LUDICROUS TALES OFF TILL THE MORROW. My yard is full of squirrels- my neighbor feeds them cat kibble and peanuts, and they DON'T COME OUT AT NIGHT! Love these idiotic "tails". Congrats on yet another Henry Higgins Award, Those Marbles of Demothsenese- apologies for misspelling- you always nail accents, ages, male, female and alliteration! Hugs from Annoyed Wife in Ontario
@@jared1870 Thanks Jared. It's mostly a bit of fun for me, to do something lighthearted after all the serious stories. Well done for suffering through it 😄. There's a really good proper story in the pipeline right now...
Haha! I agree 😄. And, yes, I got these stories from the last three or so editions. It's published every month. There used to be a competitor called "Chat! It's Fate" but that's now defunct. They are/were weirdly supernatural spin-offs from more widely circulated weeklies.
@@EnCryptedHorrorLove all those mags to be honest. I'm particularly fond of the stories that come with photos. I'd love to be there when the photographer poses Eileen from Dunbarton to look pensively from her window, or stare anxiously at her phone in the hallway. And there's always the good old 'me now' photo at the end, where Eileen is pictured looking very sad sat alone on her sofa. Crazy amount of cash they get though. I once sent one in and they told me the editor writes it; I would get no say and they'd definitely need photos. I'm not an Eileen from Dunbarton, and I don't have a phone in the hallway.... Perish the thought that my story might have ended up in your hands! 😂😂
You know, I'd a rabbit once, as a pet. A little Holland Lop. She used to nibble my bookbinding. I wish I'd had 'beatrix potty' in my vocabulary. Love a pun ❤

@@EnCryptedHorror your joke about green curry and the Siam restaurant made me howl. I love green curry.
Me too, but my insides didn't on that occasion. Never had a more nerve-shredding taxi ride home...😬

Mr Jasper are these them nice ladies who write in with personal stories? They are wonderful ! In the same vein as the nice ladies who have adopted a Sasquatch family and give them a pancake breakfast every Sunday.
Mother Hubbard. Feeling comforted by a peeping ghost when you're starkers in the tub... He followed you cuz you're an exhibitionist darlin'. 👻👻👻
It's so weird isn't it? 😁

Then I remembered: seasoning.
@@thurayya8905 The squirrel one ended up being better than expected. It's such a non-story that boils down to: I had a squirrel in my garden. 😁
Loved the squirrel's voice🤭😂
As someone actually condemned to sit on a toilet for all eternity I can relate. Thank you for this!
I loved ur commentary as u read! My "teen boy"
sense of humor was tickled!
