A Cave of Wonders
You'd think listening to someone's stream of consciousness would get boring after a time. But then, you've never listened to Mike Bennett have you? Stealth silver fish, a terrifying sock drawer, pretty decent original poetry, wonderful short stories (that aren't even his own), and some really amazing music all combine for an incredible journey into the fantastically fertile field that is Mike Bennett's twisted psyche. So tune in. He's got a phenomenal voice and I can almost guarantee you silver fish. Oh, and that there'll be carrots in his 'fridge (there always seem to be carrots in his fridge).
