Story Corps

There is this website, http://www.storycorps.net/. On it they have the recordings of the Story Corps project, which basically sets up recording booths around the country so that random people can jump in and tell a story or interview one another, etc. I was listening a bit last night - some of my favorites were of someone telling their grandchild how they fell in love with their spouse. I thought I would share a few of them with you.

This is an older man telling his grandson about a conversation he had with his then fiancee's mother: William and Seth Jacobs

This guy was telling his girlfriend the story of the day his dad died, but then... Michael Wolmetz and Debora Brakarz

This is an older Korean woman telling her daughter how she got her traditional Korean husband to return her affections: Hee-Sook and Joyce Kim Lee

This woman is remembering the phone conversation she had with her ex-husband, as he was waiting for his building to collapse on September 11th.
