The VAMP Storytelling Podcast

We were cleaning up around the So Say We All office the other day when we came across the beauty from the vault we’re going to share with you tonight. We've always wanted to have a podcast, and after our first December show in 2009, we actually took a crack at it. The only problem was we had no idea what to do with it after we made it and then it sat on the shelf for the last 14 years. But today’s the day!

I know it’s only September, but if you’re familiar to Southern California, you can already feel autumn settling on our southern California landscape. The dirt is starting to smell louder, like boiled peanuts, the cactus flowers bloomed just on time and the bees came back, the crows are flying around like curtains around sundown; it’s a whole carnival. To help get us in the mood for that today, we’re going to play you a show titled, “Season of the Witch,” where you’re going to meet a lovely flock of characters.

Featuring: Amanda Qassar, Arianna Remmel, David Schmidt, Shelly DeAngelis, Jennifer Coburn, Elaine Gingery, and Ginger Nocera.

We just had a great time collaborating with the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego, producing a showcase of true stories created in response to their phenomenal Cecilia Alvarez Munoz retrospective, “Breaking the Binding.”

It was so good in fact we wanted to turn it around and put it out so everyone who couldn’t make it in person could have a listen. It’s doubly cool if you’ve seen the retrospective or are familiar with her art, but the stories also stand on their own, and we’re going to run the whole show for you now, uninterrupted.

We’re super excited for our upcoming show this Sunday, April 16th at Bar Lubitch in West Hollywood, and so to get in the mood for the drive and show, today’s stories come to you from our inaugural show in Los Angeles, “Midnight Strikes.”

I couldn’t let February skip by without summoning up a show because February is our anniversary month. We turned fourteen this year to a packed house, another indicator that people are venturing back out into the post-quarantine world so it was a very happy anniversary indeed. So for today’s podcast, I have plucked from February 2013’s show, “Dirty Talk Vol.2” for your pleasure, featuring:

• David Latham
• Jennifer Jamall
• Holland Holzer
• Juliete Escoria
• Delia Knight
• Justin Hudnall

We took a little break over the Holidays, because we had live shows to focus on, and Southwest Airlines stranded our Program Director, and families were knocking on the door, but we are back here in January with a full show for you done in one epsiode, from our January 2014 VAMP Storytelling showcase, "Are You Gonna Eat That?" featuring:

Leon Deklebaum, Felix Flanders, Eliza Jane Schneider, Carlyn Budd, Jenny Goff, Gary Gould, and SSWA’s beloved mom, then and forever, Nancy Cary.

Now is our most beloved time of year, the spooky season. which in San Diego is not heralded in by falling autumnal leaves, but the all-powerful Santa Anna, The Red Wind, whipping out of the desert passes dry as a bone before smashing with gale force into the county. Wildfires turn into apocalypses, infants and animals refuse to be calmed, and we remember what Raymond Chandler wrote:

“Every booze party ends in a fight. Meek little wives feel the edge of the carving knife and study their husbands’ necks.”

In the storytelling business, we try to pull together shows around this time with themes that fit the mood, and so our October episode today is called, “Spirits.”

Featuring:

• Tim West
• Brent Hannify
• Leon Deklebaum
• Lynn Cooper
• Kevin Manley
• Ari Krieger
• Ariana Remmel
