One Good Memory
by Mark Redmond
After more than four decades working with homeless teens, runaways, gang members, and young people in and out of the foster care system, Mark Redmond has collected a lifetime of stories — theirs and his own. A seasoned storyteller who has taken the stage at The Moth, TEDx, and RISK!, Mark brings that same craft to One Good Memory, a podcast named for Dostoevsky's belief that even one good memory can be enough to save a life. Each episode is a short, true story of resilience, hope, and the powerful moments that help people thrive.
