Introducing “The Adventures of PK Boy!”
The Preacher’s Kid Who Corrects Your Grammar (And Eventually Learns Something)
Pilot Episode: “Dude, Where’s Your Pronoun” — A Cheeky Radio Dramedy Where the Holier-Than-Thou Kid Meets Real Life
Meet PK Boy (that’s “Pee-Kay Boy,” as in Preacher’s Kid). He’s the kid who grew up in the church nursery, memorized the order of service before he could ride a bike, and now considers it his personal ministry to improve everyone else’s language, posture, and life choices.
You know the type. The one who hears “this sandwich is fire” and immediately reaches for a concordance. The one who can spot a missing Oxford comma from across the park and feels duty-bound to address it. In the classic radio-dramedy style of the old Chicken Man episodes, PK Boy! follows our earnest (and slightly exhausting) hero as he patrols everyday life looking for things that need correcting.
There’s only one problem: the culture keeps talking back.
In each short episode, PK Boy runs into a laid-back “dude” who refuses to be properly fixed. While our hero is busy grading sentences and citing Proverbs about sloth, the everyday guy is usually busy doing something simpler and more Christ-like — like actually helping someone with their groceries. By the end of the four minutes, the Preacher’s Kid has usually learned a small, humbling lesson from the very person he set out to improve.
The satire is affectionate. And the point is always the same: the people who think they have the most to teach are often the ones who still have the most to learn.
Proverbs 17:22 puts it simply: “A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones.”
There’s also the uncomfortable mirror of Matthew 7:5 — the one about taking the plank out of your own eye before you start rearranging the speck in someone else’s. PK Boy is still working on that one. Most of us are.
The pilot episode, “Dude, Here’s Your Pronoun,” is ready for you to hear. Hit play, meet the characters, and see whether the kid with all the corrections finally gets corrected himself.
Welcome to The Adventures of PK Boy!
Sometimes the most Christ-like thing you can do… is just chill and carry the bags.
