Bad Idea - Grand Slam 2018

Welcome to the Lancaster Story Slam podcast! 

In November, we hosted our 2018 Lancaster Story Slam Grand Slam and our theme was “Bad Idea!”  As you know, our Grand Slam features our monthly winners from throughout the season who return to compete for the title of Best Storyteller in Lancaster.  

This year, Chris McDougall won the grand slam about how investigating a sound in the alley turned out to be a bad idea.

If you enjoy our podcast, you will probably also enjoy our live events!  A few changes are on the horizon for our fair Story Slam for 2019, so listen up.  Our typical venue, Tellus360 will be undergoing some renovations in the room where we host story slam, so we’ve found an alternate venue in Zoetropolis Cinema Stillhouse for our first few months of 2019.  Please join us at Zoetropolis located at 112 N. Water St, Lancaster. There they currently have a full bar and food, and will be opening a restaurant! As you know, Story Slam is held the 4th Tuesday of each month and in 2019 we will move the event to a 7pm start time!  So, 4th Tuesday of the month, 7pm at Zoetropolis. Now, back to our Grand Slam feature stories!

Michael Evans returned to our stage after initially winning our January “New Beginnings” Slam.  Here is Michael’s story about how building the community within a church is a real challenge.

Our next story comes from Marcus Grimm. Marcus told us about his first internship, writing ad copy at a local radio station. Remember the theme was Bad Idea.

Remember that we’ll launch our 5th season starting on Tuesday, January 22, 2019 at 7pm at Zoetropolis.  Tickets for our events are available on our website, and while you’re there, you can sign up for our monthly newsletter. This year You can also follow us on Twitter, on Facebook, and watch videos of all the stories from our events on our YouTube channel.

If you enjoyed the podcast, we’d love it if you you would leave a rating and review on iTunes, or let your friends know they can listen to Lancaster folks telling true tales each month.
