Who am I?

I'm a fan of storytellers, as there is nothing better than sitting back at a campsite, surrounded by family or in a car listening to a story. It's important to listen, learn and try to make this world a better place one story at a time. I'm the oldest of six kids and it was important to listen because everyone was always talking. I learned that storytellers could capture a conversation and with a rich story could be the center for every gathering. Listen and support storytellers... because they are the ones who are listening to you.

My Show

What is my podcast about and/or how does it relate to the playlist topic you chose?

My podcast is about going beyond the typical interview. I want people to be able to tell stories that only their families and close friends know. Opening the gap between the stories we never tell to all.

What is my podcast playlist about?

These podcast are master storytellers. You might not know them, but the stories they share are deep and filled with complexity.

The podcasts I picked and why

1. Murder, etc.

Why this podcast?

I love the way Brad Willis tells this story. The music you hear on every episode, he played. Trying to right a wrong, that he covered long ago.

"Somebody Somewhere" is a true crime investigative podcast series from RainStream Media, Inc. Season 3 is a 10-part series that explores the questions around the unsolved, 2003 death of federal prosecutor Jonathan Luna and the bank robbery he prosecuted where the cash evidence went missing after trial.

And in Season 1, Payne and Gottlieb tackle the open federal investigation into the 2001 murder of federal prosecutor Tom Wales. This 18-year-old case remains one of the highest priorities of the U.S. Department of Justice and has a $2.5 million reward.

1 phone call. 1 hour. No names. No holds barred. Thats the premise behind Beautiful Stories from Anonymous People, hosted by comedian Chris Gethard (the Chris Gethard Show, Broad City, This American Life, and one of Time Outs 10 best comedians of 2015). Every week, Chris opens the phone line to one anonymous caller, and he cant hang up first, no matter what. From shocking confessions and family secrets to philosophical discussions and shameless self-promotion, anything can and will happen! Theme song by Shellshag.
