Cooper St. James

What we have here are humorous audio documentaries. I write, produce and design these to inform and mostly to entertain. My mission is for you to download, enjoy and pass around for others to do the same. As I travel I am constantly coming across ideas and topics that need to be explored. I get these stories from the "old man" bars at the end of your street, from passing through small towns on the way to the next, over hearing your conversations at breakfast cafes and from bored cab drivers. To me there's nothing better than a fresh but odd story explored and later wrapped up in groovy rhythms.

So with that said, feast your ears, pass it to friends and visit once a month for the latest!
