#GoRadio 5: Blanket Fort

Today’s prompt comes from Sayre Quevedo

Find someone who you feel very comfortable with and ask them to be interviewed under a blanket about how you first met. Try to keep your voices as low as possible as you tell this story, as if you were two kids at a sleepover, trying not to wake up your parents.
