33: Tales From The Road – LIVE from Denver Music Summit!

Episode 33: Well, it's Christmas Eve. You're about to embark on an epic drive over the river and through the woods to have your weird aunt breathe scotch fumes all over your neck and listen to your uncle talk about just how right Rush is and witness the tight-lipped diplomacy exuded by old married couples sharing a kitchen while cooking and gasping every few seconds as hordes of shrieking children whirl like dervishes around a house, miraculously not splitting their heads open or poking their eyes or falling off of balconies etc etc. Or perhaps you are just waiting for a nice cup of tea to steep so you can resume your heavy hang on the couch, cozy as ever in a pair of thick socks and your sweatpants. Regardless of your current state, you'll hopefully receive this gift from The Narrators in good cheer. Here is a live show that we taped at the Denver Music Summit. The organizers invited us to put together a special show at the McNichols and invite musicians from near and far to tell "Tales From The Road." We had such an amazing group of stories that we thought it would be great to present all of them together. Our storytellers include: Yonnas Abraham from The Pirate Signal and BLKHRTS, Megan Burtt, Carleigh Aikens from BAHAMAS, Jeff Linsenmaier from The Fray, The Czars, Wovenhand, Scott Booker, who manages The Flaming Lips, and Dessa from the Doomtree Collective. Your faithful hosts kick off the podcast with the story of The Mouthstepperz, their acapella dubstep band.

30: Mary Robertson & Robert Rutherford, "Two Sides to Every Story" Part 2

Episode 30: The theme for our October show, "Two Sides to Every Story", provided an opportunity for a little bit of experimentation. We thought it might be fun to explore the nature of truth in true storytelling by looking at an age old adage, that there are two sides to every story. We invited pairs of storytellers to tell their versions of a shared experience or story. We were hoping to dig into what makes a story a story, what we can learn by looking in between the gaps, etc. We sequestered the storytellers while their counterparts were telling their version, so that what the audience got was free from influence. It was pretty danged cool. Part 2 of the show features true stories from scholar/activist Mary Robertson and Narrators co-host Robert Rutherford. These stories were recorded at The Deer Pile on October 17th, 2013 by our good friends at The Denver Diatribe.
