An Evening of Stories and Sound with Radio Diaries (NPR) Producer Joe Richman

We learn to listen before we’re born. Sound is our first language. There is a special magic and intimacy in audio storytelling. In the age of podcasts, how do we create good stories in sound? And what can storytelling skills teach us about being a better human being?

Join us for an evening of stories and an exploration of the nature of audio storytelling with Radio Diaries producer Joe Richman
