Customer Reviews
I’m a sucker for stories...
...And if you are too, than this is well worth listening to. Biggest complaint is that it’s too short, you get into the theme and it’s suddenly over. The hosts’ intro and exit comments end up taking up a big chunk of the run time. It’s similar to The Moth or Porchlight although not quite as good. (To be fair, I’m sure they have nowhere near the funding of those shows, especially The Moth.) So you won’t find any semi-celebrity guests or comedians, just good stories.
The Stoop
Love The Stoop storytelling series because its not as polished as the Moth. I do wish there was searchable database so could my absolute favorite podcast of all time..... I’m certain it was here because its SO Baltimore- it concerns an employee at Medieval Times. I think about it often and would love to share it with friends
Great stories
If you like the Moth, you’ll probably like this storytelling podcast too. The stories aren’t always as polished and worked on as the Moth but they are still very entertaining. Would have given it a 5 except for the hosts. I usually fast forward through their introductions.
