On episode 68 of the Short Story Today podcast, Stephen talks with host Jon DiSavino: "New Jersey author Stephen Cicirelli has a penchant for philosophy--and it shows up in his stories in surprising ways. But there's nothing academic about them. They vibrate with energy, often weaving sorrow with humor. We read his story 'Quitting,' about an experiment in free will that goes awry."
