Thank you for such a great night! Mr. Coffee was overflowing with names but I couldn’t bear to bump anyone to next month so the show went longer than usual. We also had three amazing first-timers share stories with us who I hope will come back and share more. 

Life has been busy this week so I’m not able to get my usual overly-ambitious 1,200 word thank you email out this month. But if you missed the show, know that you missed a great one.

I’ll get the invite out to the October 19th show later today. In the meantime, I want to let you know that Susan Fee, one of our long-time regular tellers, was on The Moth podcast last week. I loved her story so of course I have to share it with you.

Thanks again to everyone who told a story last week and everyone who supported them. Extra special thanks to Obie, Ashley, and Chad who talked to me after the show about my own story and how my issues around money can be overcome. There was a lot of love in the room that night. It means a lot that they would talk to me afterward about their own experiences with what I was talking about onstage.

Two of the three recorders worked that night so send me an email if you told a story and would like the audio from it.

Hope to see you all next month on the 19th! The theme is “Fish Out of Water – Stories of not fitting in.”
