Hope Springs Eternal

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

On March 21, eight storytellers shared their stories with our audience at Archetype Pizza in downtown York.

The theme for our March story slam was HOPE SPRINGS ETERNAL. We heard stories about second chances, the search for romantic partners, and the dangers of hope.

In the end, our winner was Mike Reed, with his story of the lead-up to his first junior high basketball shot.

Mike earned a spot in our Grand Slam in November. Our next story comes from Carol Stowell, who shared about the hope she's found in activism.

Our final story on this month’s podcast comes from Kir Evancho, who talks about hanging her hopes on romantic relationships.

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.
