I love listening to stories. When people tell stories I shut up and listen. They don’t even have to have a point most of the time – I think I just like to listen to people talk.
It’s usually better when the stories are true, though. That’s why I love stuff like This American Life and StoryCorps.
“StoryCorps. For StoryWhores.” That’s not their slogan, but it should be.
This American Life just moved to New York and is being turned into a series on Showtime! Fun fact: Although Ira Glass sounds like the gayest man on radio today, he is actually straight as revealed in this profile.
If you know of any story-related podcasts I’d love to hear about them. I know about Love and Radio but most of their stories make me throw up in my mouth.
I like stories!
