Summer Love
from York Story Slam Hosted by York Story Slam
Welcome to the York Story Slam podcast, where we feature select stories from our monthly open mic storytelling events in York, Pennsylvania. On June 20, eight storytellers shared their stories with our audience at Archetype Pizza in downtown York. The theme for our June story slam was SUMMER LOVE. We heard stories about connections that spanned decades, the risks in putting yourself out there, and what happens when you don’t close the curtains. In the end, our winner was Mina Edmondson, who shared her story about feeling her brother’s presence and love, even after he’d passed. Mina earned a spot in our Grand Slam in November. Our second story comes from John Joyce, with his story about his fourth-grade classmate Debbie Quinn, and a moment of kindness he never got to re-pay. Our final story on this month’s podcast comes from Debbie Gable, who shared her story about moving from friends to something more, and all the awkward and sweet moments in between. 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.
