Welcome to the York Story Slam podcast, where we feature select stories from our monthly open mic storytelling events in York, Pennsylvania.
On May 17, ten storytellers shared their stories with our audience for our virtual slam.
The theme for our May story slam was CHAOS. We heard stories about dealing with children, facing wild animals, and septic troubles.
In the end, our winner was Randall Arthur, with his story about piquing the imaginations of a class of second graders.
Randall earned a spot in our Grand Slam in November. Next up we have Mina Edmondson, with her story of a time she played a softball game while her children entertained themselves on the adjacent playground.
Our final story on this month’s podcast comes from Phil Broder, who told a story about some of his home ownership experiences from the last few years.
All the winners from this year’s open mic story slam events will return in November to compete for the title of Best Storyteller in York.
Updates on our upcoming events and tickets for purchase are available on our website, YorkStorySlam.com, and while you’re there, you can sign up for our monthly newsletter. You can also follow us on twitter at @yorkstoryslam, as well as on Facebook, and watch videos of all the stories from our events on our YouTube channel.
We hope to see you on stage soon! Thanks for listening.
