This Women’s History Month, listen to the women and girls with stories to tell about their unique experiences, from Ukrainian mothers, soldiers and wives in the throes of a now three year-long war to inspiring young leaders representing Native Hawaiian and African diaspora communities. Plus, four brand new episodes of STORIES FROM THE STAGE feature storytellers sharing the ups and downs of love with a side of laughter.
Close Calls
Some moments bring us to the edge, changing everything. Marylee’s kindness comes with a lesson in empathy, leaving her with regret; Alexander’s quick thinking, and a box of candy, turn a dangerous encounter into an escape; and Kat holds onto a family story she’s always believed...until the truth reshapes her world. Three storytellers, three interpretations of CLOSE CALLS, hosted by Theresa Okokon.
