About Us

People tell stories; all the time. At The Story we search them out and bundle them up into a daily show. We offer an hour of stories, five days a week. A show begins with a long form conversation with host Dick Gordon; some days we are linked to the news and other days we mix it up; if a person has a great story to tell we might give them most of the show, another show might have 5-6 segments.

Other regular voices you'll hear on the show are Sean Cole and Phoebe Judge both reporting and filling in as host. You'll hear the podcast 99% Invisible once a week, as well as Nate DiMeo's storytelling podcast The Memory Palace. We include stories from our partners Salon.com, and Narrative.ly. Regular contributors include Long Haul Productions, Scott Carrier, Barrett Golding, and Jonathan Mitchell of The Truth. Fiction readings pop up in some shows as well as repeats of vintage radio classics from people like Dave Isay, Jay Allison, the Kitchen Sisters, Joe Richman and Dmae Roberts.
