Holiday Short Story Podcast: Snowy Days and Mondays


For the next 4 Tuesdays, I will be re-releasing two of my Christmas short story podcasts mixed in with a holiday story as it originally aired in my radio days on WMML in Mobile, Alabama, and WBCA in Bay Minette, Alabama, under my radio name, Joe Davis. There will also be a brand new offering from my radio days of a special series of newscasts I did for Christmas in 1991.

If you have followed the podcast versions of my short stories in the past, the radio versions I just mentioned will give you a good look at how the stories morphed from simple radio storytelling to the written word then to the podcast. 

My first story today is the tale of my gang of friends attempting to break the world speed record for sledding. Well, it was our own record, but we thought it would be a world record. Trouble was, instead of sledding in thick, fluffy snow, it would be down a mountain blanketed with ice from the worst ice storm the northeast had experienced in decades leaving one of the gang – that would be me – taking the ride of a lifetime. Here is Snowy Days and Mondays-the Podcast Version. And if you enjoy these podcasts, please let me know. I'm considering bringing back the short story podcasts. 

By the way, you can get an eBook or PDF copy of the stories by visiting my Holiday Giveaway 2019 page at:


Enjoy, won't you?

Joe's 2019 Holiday Giveaway Begins Today

 Joe Cuhaj's 2019 Holiday Giveaway


Once again this year, author Joe Cuhaj has put together two thank you gifts as his way of saying thank you for all of your support with his books, podcasts, and articles over the past year.

The first is for the hikers in your life "Joe Cuhaj's 10 Favorite Family Friendly Hikes in Alabama". This is a PDF file with all of the information you need including maps of 10 great hikes to take your kids on. Inside the booklet, there is information on how you can also download a free copy of the GPX files that you can load onto your GPS device for all of the hikes described in the booklet!

The second holiday giveaway is for short story lovers. Joe has compiled his three favorite winter and Christmas short stories (all loosely based on faulty memories) into a new book, "The Christmas Collection". The book is available as a PDF file or eBook. PLUS, you can download audio versions of the stories as MP3 files that you can listen to whenever and wherever you want.

The MP3 cuts include a couple from his podcast, "Joe Cuhaj's Shorts", plus a couple that were read live on the radio during his broadcasting days at WMML radio in Mobile, Alabama, in 1985 and on WBCA in Bay Minette, Alabama, in 1991. With the radio cuts, you'll hear how the stories morphed over the years from simple story telling on the radio to written word to podcast.
