The Popular Girl Who Was Actually a Tortoise/The Cat That Had a Trumpet

Personification is giving human characteristics to something non-human, which Preston explains as a way to make Willow the Trumpet-playing cat feel relatable on stage.
Pockets/The Evil Calendar
Q: Can you tell me how you got the idea for your story?
I just thought it was funny when my parents say we're not a table when they want us to stop piling things on them.
Alfred and the Broken Cup/Princess Lemon and the Tennis Tournament (feat. Kate Micucci)
Q: What advice do you have for listeners who are trying to be better sports when they lose?
