Based on the enormously popular podcast Nothing Much Happens, these family-friendly stories are an antidote to anxiety and a dose of simple goodness. Listen on your commute, on a walk, or whenever you want to visit a place where people are kind and simple things are enjoyed.

Rain Clouds, Butterflies, and Lightning Bugs

Originally presented as Episode 29, July 8, 2024

Our stories today lean into the romance and sentimental feelings of the summer. We’ll start with In the Kitchen, During a Storm, as the wind picks up and the Pomodoro sauce simmers on the stove. This story, by the way, mentions alcohol, in case that doesn’t work for you and you need to skip it. Then we’ll put the river on our left and roll down the windows as we visit The Turnaround; we’ll look out at the lighthouses and creep close to the shore to listen to the water lap at the rocks. Finally, we’ll follow the call of a summer evening out to the park where a memory, long forgotten, arises in Someplace Only We Know.

Pasta, The River, and a Sunken Garden (Encore)

Our stories today tip us into the first holiday tales of the season. We’ll start with Rainy Morning, a story about a good day to stay in bed and finish a good book, as well as looking forward to the next on the to-be-read list once the rain shifts to snow. Then we’ll visit with friends, step out into the fresh air, and risk a fall or two in Skating in the Park. Finally, we’ll pop some popcorn and snuggle on the couch as a special begins to play on the TV in Paper Stars.

Books, Skates, & Stars

Our stories today have us deep into holiday excitement in the Village. We’ll stop by the bookstore in Snow and Streetlights and pursue the shelves, sip some hot cocoa, and smile at the merriment in downtown. Then we’ll unwrap the buildings of the little Christmas village, plugging in their bulbs and arranging them on the tree skirt in Under the Tree. Finally, we’ll head out to the Inn, where they are getting ready for a week of guests. The mantle is decorated, and from the windows in the ballroom, you can see the ice spreading on the lake in The Innkeeper’s Holiday.

Streetlights, Christmas Trees, & The Inn

Our stories today have us decorating and crafting and enjoying the outdoors. We’ll start with Mistletoe and Marmalade, as the tree goes up, and the animals debate pulling it back down. Then we’ll hear The Holly and the Ivy, where we can step out after the snow has fallen and cut some greenery for handmade gifts. Finally we’ll hear The Tree Farm. We’ll ride the tractor through the fields, and connect someone who needs something, with something that needs a home.

Mistletoe, Ivy, & Pine

Our stories today take us near and far in the Village of Nothing Much. We’ll start downtown in Mornings at the Coffee Shop, where we’ll fight off the cold with hot drinks and care for our neighbors. Then we’ll travel out to the chalet on the mountain in Fresh Snow for out of doors fun and evening recouping around the fire pit. Finally, we’ll come back to town for an impromptu meal in the diner on the corner in Out to Breakfast.

Near & Far Winter Stories

Our stories today take us into the new year with three fresh adventures. We’ll start with a simple soup simmering on the stove as the snow begins to fall in Lemongrass and Ginger. Then we’ll tie on our skates and head out to the park for a day in the crisp winter air in The Skating Path. Finally, we’ll board a train for a cross country trip, watch the sun set and daydream about the characters we meet on the way in The Sleeper Car.

New Year Adventures

Our stories today are full of whiskers and wagging tales. We’ll start with a little brown dog as he meets his new family and falls in love in Crumb Comes Home. Then we’ll wrap up tight and head out into the snow to take in the views and the quiet and wish a happy new year to a doe in a pasture. Finally in Sycamore Settles In, we’ll check in the Innkeeper and her new friend as they make up beds, play in the ballroom and get ready for guests.

Winter Animal Stories

Our stories today are about some of the joys of mid-winter. We’ll start by layering up the
bed to keep the chill out in The Winter Quilt. Then we’ll step out into the fresh air and listen to
some birdsong as icicles drip in Winter Views. Finally we’ll let one good turn lead to another in a
story about snowy sidewalks and grocery sacks called Pass It On.

Quiet Winter Kindness

We are doing something a little different with today’s episode, and I hope you dig it. I am going to take you on a little walking tour of a favorite location in the Village on Nothing Much. What? How will that work? Yeah, I don’t know either. We’re going to figure it out together because, yes, the Village of Nothing Much is an imaginary place, a world I built story by story through my bedtime story podcast Nothing Much Happens, but why should that stop us? So you might want to listen to this while you are walking, just stretch your imagination a bit. Or listen wherever you are, just following along with me as I talk our way through the Great House and Village Museum, where the map room sits on the top floor, and the labyrinth awaits in the gardens.

Village Museum Walking Tour

Our stories today follow two women, one as she learns new things and the other as she resides in a frame, looking over one shoulder, with a book in her hands. We’ll start with the exciting arrival of the community ed catalogue in Back to School. Then we’ll step into the studio to clear away years of dust and soot in Restoration. Finally, we’ll apply the finishing coat of varnish and consider all we have learned along the way in the Lady in the Painting.
