Since its launch in 1997, The Moth has presented thousands of true stories, told live and without notes, to standing-room-only crowds worldwide. Moth storytellers stand alone, under a spotlight, with only a microphone and a roomful of strangers. The storyteller and the audience embark on a high-wire act of shared experience which is both terrifying and exhilarating.

Phenomenal

I adore “The Moth.” There is always a story that connects us as human beings. However, I was absolutely BLOWN AWAY by the Sept. 30 episode, specifically, the story by Brian Jeansonne. His story will strip you of any self-pity that you might have. It is a beautiful story about a phenomenal family. Close your eyes, listen, and have gratitude for everything in your life. ❤️
Great show! Terrible theme music.

This is a wonderful show; I can’t believe that it took me this long to discover it. I love to hear all the stories; whether they are funny, sad, or anything in between, they are always thought-provoking. Please change the theme song, though! It literally hurts my ears every time I hear it, especially when wearing earbuds.
Broken hearted

I am old and retired and broke. I wanted to listen to Franny's last ride by Mike outta New York. Finally, I was able to trace it through the Internet to Moth. it was right there in front of me. I could see it, but in front of that was a page where I had to donate money. I tried to get around that page but I couldn't. My retirement is 1800 and change. My mortgage is over 2000. I do not ever remember the Moth ever asking for money, so I'm hoping it's something new. A as huge fan of the Moth I new I am sad for the old and poor that live thru Mike and Franny. I don't wish shame or guilt on any Moth but I suspect there may be some dwelling within. Love y'all and you too brother Mike. I've an 05 Roadglide that has my soul in it. And prayers that Franny that she's living her dream just in a different venue. Fish Local boy not far from Woods Hole, or Boston. Love y'all.
