Hello Story-Fiends (I don't know, trying something new ¯\_(ツ)_/¯),

There will be no new episodes this week for a couple of reasons:

1) My old laptop was going down hill so I have new equipment that I'm learning on. So I don't have time to get a new episode out today.

2) I am working on two very special events. First, next week I will be doing a series with stories from members of the LGBTQ+ community. (I'd still love to get a couple more interviews for that so comment if you want to be a part of it). The other special event will drop in July. It will feature actors from one of my all time favorite series. I've got 5 cast members involved so far and I am hoping to keep adding more in the next few weeks.

Please continue to like, comment and subscribe!!!

09/06/2020

Due to technical difficulties there will not be a new episode today. Hopefully we will be back up and running soon.

#BlackLivesMatter 05/06/2020

For some reason FB was restricting today's episode. So we're trying again.

I think today's episode is very important. Normally I present you a guest and a story from their life, told in their words.

Today I felt it was important to highlight those who's stories we can never hear in their own words, because they were taken from us too soon.

#BlackLivesMatter Today please join me for 8 minutes and 46 seconds as I present to you the names of those who can’t tell us their stories in their own words, because their st...

The USA is in turmoil, our cities are on fire, and COVID-19 continues to kill over thousands of people across the world on a daily basis.

I believe when the darkness descends we all need something that can shine a little ray of light into our world. As such, I will continue to post new stories. I hope that these stories will continue to bring you a few minutes of light in your dark days.

Today's story is one I was planning to release this week before everything happened last week, but I think it's message is even more timely. I hope you will enjoy Brandon Ellis' Best Story.
