StoryCorps

If you haven't heard of StoryCorps, you're missing out.

It's a place where ordinary people tell their stories, some happy, some sad, most a bit of both. They're short, under five minutes, but each one is a like a perfect truffle.

I love this one about Kay Wang, a feisty grandmother who was talked into going to the StoryCorps booth with her son and granddaughter to answer a few questions.



And this one? This one will break your heart. It won a Peabody and if you watch it, you'll know why.
