14 - Credits (all ages)

Thank you all so much for listening to season 2 of The NoNap Podcast! When Erin Lillis gave me the thumbs up to continue a second season for them, I was incredibly excited, and a bit overwhelmed! Many, many hours of work were put into this by so many talented writers,  readers, sound engineers, artists, and musicians! I've been listening to so many of these folks' work on The NoSleep Podcast and others for, what, maybe a decade now? To be able to work alongside so many great voices I've been hearing as I travel, clean, and live my life, it's very surreal, and I have nothing but respect and gratitude for them all, From the bottom of my dark, spooky heart, thank you to: Matt Bradford,  Erika Sanderson David Ault Nichole Goodnight Alexis Bristowe  Dan Zappulla Kristina Manente Elie Hirschman Penny Scott-Andrews Andy Cresswell Graham Rowat Sarah Ruth Desdemona Stacey Scruggs Karl Melton Charlie Davenport Jackson Arthur John Harrison Micah Edwards Marcus Damanda Adam Davies Meredith Morgenstern N.M. Brown LP Hernandez K.M. Bennett Seng Phengdouangdeth and Andrew Parker Please forgive me if I missed anyone! And last but not least, Erin Lillis aka Nanny Cadavra, without whom, none of this would have happened! Thank you for helping to bring the spooks to twenty thousand kids so far,  and taking a chance on me. Until next time, skip -all- the naps!
