Welcome to the York Story Slam podcast, where we feature select stories from our monthly open mic storytelling events in York, Pennsylvania.

On September 19, ten storytellers shared their stories with our audience at Archetype Pizza in downtown York.

Our theme this month was COMING HOME. We heard stories about moving, about finding a sense of home, a couple about dogs, and even one about a 50th high school reunion.

In the end, our winner was Corey Wolfe, who told a story about how long it took him to move to an apartment across the street.

Corey earned a spot in our Grand Slam in November. Our second story comes from Bridget Hudacs, who told us about how, despite her initial resistance, she became a dog mom.

Our final story on this month’s podcast comes from Matt McDunnell. Matt shared what he learned when his mother came home at an inopportune moment.

All the winners from this year’s open mic story slam events will return at the end of the season to compete for the title of Best Storyteller in York at our Grand Slam.

Updates on our events 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.
