Knee Deep

Jeff Bender

Welcome to Knee Deep, a five-minute story in a cup. It’s light, not too deep, with just enough of the tide washing in to reset your day and help you get back on your feet. Wade in with me. Hear a funny tale, or my observations on life under the surface. I’m Jeff Bender, author and artist, thinker of Knee Deep thoughts. So, you’ve rushed out of the house and spilt your coffee down the front of your shirt. The news cycle is heavy, the traffic's honking and, well, you just want to stick your feet in the sand and chill. Relax with a fresh story each week! Wade in... without being overwhelmed.
