Connecting Quickly (and Managing Behavior) through Physicality.
When telling for young audiences, even the most brilliant story is vulnerable to young audiences if the situation is compromised, or your delivery is not ideal for the setting. In this discussion, Alex reveals how his wild and mesmerizing style is methodically built, brick by brick. Small details can reap huge Read more »
This will be my last world map – I have recently switched hosted to switchpod and they do not seem to play nicely with my tracking provider podtrac. Just to be really be mean they don’t provide tracking abilities half as nice as this either. The sad reality being that I will no longer be able to provide detailed country by country counting for my international listeners.
With the hosting switch I am very interested if any listeners are having trouble downloading shows. Please leave a comment on this post if you have problems with downloads. Please include any error codes, computer(PC, Max, etc..), platform (windows, Lenex, Mac…) listening software (real player, quicktime..) Thanks.

Press Play to hear this interview that was recorded as a conference call with storyteller Steve Denning about how storytelling can be used to effect change in any work place setting.
Steve Denning writes… In 1998, I made a pilgrimage to the International Storytelling Center in Jonesborough, Tennessee, seeking enlightenment. As program director of knowledge management at the World Bank, I’d stumbled onto the power of storytelling. Despite a career of scoffing at such touchy-feely stuff; like most business executives, I knew that analytical was good, anecdotal was bad; my thinking had started to change. Over the previous few years, I’d seen stories help galvanize an organization around Read more »

Stories about giving and receiving.
Michael J. Caduto writes…
I always start my storytelling performances by focusing on the circles and cycles that we share. Storytelling is a circle: a story needs someone to speak the words and a listener to imagine the story into being. This vital exchange breathes life into stories as they become animated in our mind’s eye. So the gift of storytelling is a mutual experience – an exchange of wisdom and a mindful act of creation.
There is also the circle of our gathering; of giving and receiving; in which everyone is arranged in a shape which symbolizes reciprocity and reminds us that we are all in balance. Whatever we share goes around between us all.
The circle is also a symbol our relationship of giving and receiving with the natural world. Everything in nature works in cycles. The basic principles of ecology and sustainable natural processes are based on exchanges of minerals, carbohydrates, genes, gases and other life-sustaining elements. Without this essential mutuality, ecosystems, and the life therein, could not survive. These are the cycles that we must live within in order to Read more »

Margaret Read MacDonald writes…
In 1994 one day the phone on my desk at the Bothell Library rang. A professor from Drew University was on the line. “Dr. Wajuppa Tossa would like you to call her in Thailand right away,” he said. “She wants you to come over there as a Fulbright Scholar.” I hung up and sat stunned. A Fulbright Scholar. To Thailand? Could I do that? I had a fulltime job as a children’s librarian. But maybe; I dialed the Thailand number right away to find out more. A very drowsy Dr. Wajuppa roused herself from her 3 am sleep to answer. First problem with communicating across language barriers? Get your time zones right!
It was in fact possible for me to go off to Thailand. The Fulbright program did accept me and the King County Library System gave me a sabbatical. So I arrived at the Read more »
