EP.11) I was in Balboa Park. Someone was paying people to tell their story!
I got their story for free! This is it!
Rough Transcript:
So here we are at Balboa Park again, and I just noticed an interesting sign and I thought I would ask the person about their sign and what they're doing -- Umm, Hi, I’m Ashley I'm a film student at UCSD and I'm doing sort of a social project so I accumulate stories and gather stories and just get to meet new people and talk to them for a dollar. Umm, because, could you read your sign for us? This is, this a podcast and we can't see anything -- Oh, I got you -- so it says I need someone to talk to? Share your story make a dollar -- So you're paying people for their stories every time or only if it's a good story? -- No, every time time, no matter what, and any story, it doesn’t have to be like your life story, any story you want to tell -- And how many stories have you collected today? -- So far just one, the gentleman that just got up before you -- OK well then, you're just starting out getting your stories! (I am!) Well, it’s an interesting idea, uhh I wish you a lot of luck. Do you have any questions for me? -- Umm do you wanna share a story? Ah, I, I am going to share a story, I'm gonna share this story right here on the next episode of my podcast Unexpected English! So... Unexpected English?.. So, so look for it on Spotify, iTunes, wherever! Thanks! Bye! Link: https://linktr.ee/UnexpectedEnglish
