Souvenirs – Brandon Lingle, Alex Flynn, And Brent Wingfield

What happens overseas comes home with you, and can find a way to reappear back into your life when you least expect it. Today’s episode is titled, “Souvenirs,” which in the context of the stories you’re about to hear is a little tongue-in-cheek, a little bit of that dark humor people under stress employ from time to time to get by, but I’m sure you’ll appreciate it by the end. The gist is that what happens overseas comes home with you, and can find a way to reappear back into your life when you least expect it Contributors: Brandon Lingle, Alex Flynn, and Brent Wingfield.

The Abyss Also Gazes – Andrew Szala, Rolf Yngve, Gill Sotu, Elizabeth Washburn And Dan Lopez Of Combat Arts

Beware that, when fighting monsters, you yourself do not become a monster… for when you gaze long into the abyss. The abyss gazes also into you. – Fredrick Nietzsche. Friedrich Nietzsche’s quote reminds me that there are certain individuals who have unique insights about the process of staring into the abyss, as well as climbing back out of it again. We have four terrific veteran writers and artists speaking on the subject who come at it from very different angles: Contributors: Andrew Szala, Rolf Yngve, Gill Sotu, Elizabeth Washburn and Dan Lopez of San Diego’s veteran visual arts non-profit, Combat Arts.

Spirits

Now is our most beloved time of year, the spooky season. which in San Diego is not heralded in by falling autumnal leaves, but the all-powerful Santa Anna, The Red Wind, whipping out of the desert passes dry as a bone before smashing with gale force into the county. Wildfires turn into apocalypses, infants and animals refuse to be calmed, and we remember what Raymond Chandler wrote: “Every booze party ends in a fight. Meek little wives feel the edge of the carving knife and study their husbands’ necks.” In the storytelling business, we try to pull together shows around this time with themes that fit the mood, and so our October episode today is called, “Spirits.” Featuring: Tim WestBrent HannifyLeon DeklebaumLynn CooperKevin ManleyAri KriegerAriana Remmel Mentioned in this episode: VoSD Trailer All Hosts

Woah, Mama! - Part 1

Support So Say We All during our annual summer fund drive: www.sosayweallonline.com/support Summer is officially upon us. Here in San Diego, we still haven’t the kind of flattening heat waves or exploding forest fires that wipe whole towns off the map like we have in previous summers. Considering all the other things going on in the country, it’s almost like California understands we’re working with a full plate at the moment and doesn’t want to add to it. Not yet at least. We’ve got a hell of a show that will hopefully take your mind off of all that for the next hour, on the theme of, “Woah, Mama,” a live show debuting just a minute ago in May of 2022–Mother’s Day might have had something to do with our going with it. We’ll hear from Part One’s storytellers today, featuring Laura Preble, Debra Bass, TJ Tallie, and Milo Schapiro. The VAMP Storytelling Podcast is produced by Justin Hudnall. Leslie Furguson was our volunteer producer for the live show. Joe Hudak is our Production manager. Jennifer Corley is our Program Director. And Brent Hannify is our Social Media Manager who gets the word out. All the original music you hear was provided by the inspired Kurt Kohnen of AMFM Music with the exception of our end credits theme, "Blue Little" generously provided by 10:32. Support is made possible by The California Arts Council, The San Diego Commission for Arts and Culture, The Conrad Prebys Foundation, and the supporting members of So Say We All. We’d love to have you as one of those members, just go to www.sosayweallonline.com/support or our Patreon, www.patreon.com/sosayweallonline. We would deeply appreciate the love.

That's My Jam - Part 1

Despite the passing heat wave, you can begin to smell the faintest hint of fall in the air, and that has us all so percolating with anticipation we wanted our next two episodes to reflect our excitement. So we’re going with “That’s My Jam,” a great show all about songs, hobbies, and obsessions that set the stage for big life moments. Featuring: Nas Helewa, Jennifer D. Corley, Leon Decklebaum, and Eber Lambert.

What’s Lost at Sea – Tenley Lozano And Kurt Kalbfleisch

“I was much further out than you thought, And not waving but drowning.” –Stevie Smith. Today’s episode is titled “Lost At Sea,” for two reasons: firstly because we’ll be hearing from service members who spent a lot of their time bobbing on the water, Kurt Kalbfliesh of the Navy and Tenley Lozano of the Coast Guard, but also because their stories both touch on what they sacrificed and endured during their service that impacted the rest of their lives. Contributors: Kurt Kalbfleisch and Tenley Lozano.

The Undesirables – Lisbeth Prifogle And Anthony Moll

Today’s show is titled, with our tongues lodged firmly in our cheeks, “The Undesirables,” because it features two wonderful veteran voices who speak on the subject of having to hide aspects of their personal identities which–at the time–could have been viewed as obstacles to their military careers. Contributors: Lisbeth Prifogle and Anthony Moll.

Unstuck In Time – Benjamin Busch And Sierra Crane

Navigating the present, alongside past and future. Today’s show, “Unstuck in Time,” is titled after the opening line in Kurt Vonnegut’s novel Slaughterhouse Five, one of our favorite descriptions about Post Traumatic Stress. Vonnegut uses it in reference to his main character, where he writes, “Billy Pilgrim has come unstuck in time.” Upon first reading the book, it’s natural to take it literally — the book is couched in a science-fiction veneer after all –but upon later reflection its remarkable how perfectly it explains the phenomenon of flashbacks. Contributors: Benjamin Busch and Sierra Crane.
