234: Andrew Orvedahl, "Loyalty Test"

Today’s story is as fresh as you can get—it’s the most recent story told at The Narrators. Last week we celebrated our 11th anniversary, outdoors in the parking lot of Buntport Theater. It was our first time performing anywhere near the theater in over a year and we were definitely a little rusty, but it felt great to be home. We want to take a moment to thank everyone who’s supported the show over the years and the community that has grown around us, especially folks like Robert Rutherford and Mary Robertson, who brought the show to San Diego for a few years; my co-host Erin Rollman, who welcomed the show to its current home at Buntport; Sydney Crain, Karen Wachtel, Jessi Whitten, and Scott Carney, the patient and generous team of folks who help me keep the show and podcast going; and the countless others who’ve volunteered their time, energy, and personal stories to The Narrators over the years. And last but certainly not least, we'd like to thank Andrew Orvedahl for creating the show back in 2010. We can’t think of any better way to commemorate the occasion than listening to a story from the master himself—today's story comes from comedian, actor, and game designer Andrew Orvedahl. Andrew told this true story just nine days ago, outdoors at Buntport Theater—the theme of the evening was “Confessions.” Special thanks to Knuckle Pups for today’s outro music!
