Welcome to the first ever episode of Story Circle Jerk, a new podcast about storytelling and storytellers! In this amuse-bouche of an episode, our intrepid (and might I, the third-person narrator, add, dashingly handsome) host Kai Durkin takes the first step on the Story Circle or Hero's Journey: answering the call to adventure! Or in other words, they finally decide to stop telling people they're making a podcast all about writing and actually, you know, make one. Even if they're bad at accents and forgot to get a pop filter.

Writing featured: 

• Martha (short story) written and performed by Kai Durkin.
• Lads Trip (short story) written and performed by Kai Durkin.
