the day the dinosaurs died by Douglas Preston narrated by jenny Sherrard. If on a certain evening about 66 million years ago, you had stood somewhere in North America and looked up at the sky. You would have soon made out what appeared to be a star. If you watched for an hour or two, the star would have seemed to grow in brightness although it barely moved. That's because it was not a star, but an asteroid And it was headed directly for Earth at about 45,000 mph, 60 hours later, the asteroid hit the air in front was compressed and violently heated and it blasted a hole through the atmosphere, generating a supersonic shockwave. The asteroid struck a shallow sea where the yucatan peninsula is today. In that moment the cretaceous period ended and the paleo gene period began. Firecracker by David Iverson narrated by jenny Sherrard. The week before, a boy had asked me if he could be my boyfriend. I thought I liked him. His name was a will, but he called himself won't And that's exactly the sort of thing a 12 year old might find interesting. I was dumber when I was 12 than I am now. I now know that won't is about the stupidest nickname in the world and also every nickname is stupid. If you pick it for yourself, you should never get to pick your own nickname. Won't went to Admiral Sanders down the street. It was a military school and possibly also a chicken restaurant. Military schools were for bad kids for me having that place full of delinquents so close was good because bad kids had things I needed I met won't because he sold me cherry bombs, firecrackers and sparklers. I needed to set them off in a nun's toilet. And this was a catholic school. We ended up talking for a few hours about all sorts of romantic things like lock picking and how to make napalm. When I was about to leave, he asked if he could kiss me and I really couldn't think of a good reason why not. No one had ever kissed me before and won't have his mysterious nickname. So he stuck his spongy tongue in my mouth for 20 seconds. It was not without its charm. I said what I thought I was supposed to say, I think I like you. And then he said, cool, you too. And I walked away with that goofy smiley expression that girls I hate always have on their faces.
