making scientists blush

I was on the Story Collider podcast last week with this very NSFW story about dirty sex, crazy chicks and statistics.

Have a listen.

I also told a version of this story at Housing Works in October 2009.  It was only my second time on stage.  Kind of a different performance, huh?

hope floats

I told this at TOLD on October 18, and what a fun night that was.  It’s one of my favorite stories to tell, a happy tale about what happens when several young travelers get trapped on a ferry.

You can also listen to a studio version of the story about the journey home right here, where it is still one of the highest rated stories at Snap Judgment.

the wedding story

September 23rd, 2010

[Update: I told this story at The Moth in December 2010. Watch the video. It's better than this audio.]

I told the lovely and talented Nisse Greenberg that he didn’t want to put me on first and the wise lad listened.

Some stories, you just need to tell. This is one of those. There is intense happiness in it but it is not a happy story.

Recored, poorly, by me at Storytelling at the Perch on September 20, 2010.
