Places I Can’t Return To
This is an audio book of ”Places I Can’t Return To”, a collection of true stories by comedian Sean Bair-Flannery. Each chapter is a place I cannot return to, usually because the people who live or work there warned me to never return. Or sometimes because those places are now in the bottom of a lake. Each week I release the next chapter for free online.

I tell the story about how I added my wife's last name to my own, which was not easy to do in Illinois (at the time). But, luckily, Illinois bureaucrats are creative.

I was fired from a job for having too big of a vocabulary. Or at least that's how I tell the story. I also talk about how computer employees and IT support staff try to trade stupid customers off to coworkers, rather than dealing with them directly.
