Storycast Holiday Rebroadcast 2020

Enjoy this rebroadcast of TWO of our favorite holiday episodes released in the show’s run between 2015-2018…
REBROADCAST: "Between the Lines"In a desolate wasteland where the muck & wet begged for the Christmas wish of a hard frost, isolation in close quarters led to an improbable ceasefire, a handshake of tobacco, and voices lifted in song. Discover exactly what the Christmas Truce of 1914 means for our sense of common humanity…

Season 3 Preview

Remember that game you played as a kid? Maybe you called it 20 questions... Or "Person, Place, Thing"… Or "Animal, Mineral, Vegetable"… It was the game of roadtrips and hiking excursions where one person would pick some thing, person, or place -- unique, interesting, or just all-together random... And the others would ask questions to finally discover what "X" is…
All season long, join Storycast as we discover a fascinating person, place, or thing each episode… And follow along to unearth the season’s theme to be revealed at the very end when all the stories have been told. It’s one part story, one part discovery, and one part mystery... But isn’t that really the tale of this life anyway? Join me, Russell Silva, for season three of The Storycast…. Coming to a set of earbuds near you September 30th.

The show is in-between seasons right now, but I’m excited to announce that the first episode of season two will be coming to you on the final Friday in September. I know that’s a ways off, but it’ll be worth the wait. The Storycast tells tales of the many chapters of life that tell the stories of us. We find the common thread in different kinds of stories... discovered in interviews, fiction, history, current events... and season two is shaping up with some really cool themes that will make you think, feel, and wonder a little bit more.

Our “stories of summer” series concludes with “Severus and Stone” from Radical Face. We’re back next week with a preview of season two. There are so many new things in store for next  season, and I can’t wait to tell you more. But for now, enjoy what might just be the best song you may have never heard...
