Part one of our “Slapstick” show features stories from Narrators co-host/Captain of many hearts Andrew Orvedahl and comedian Chris Fairbanks. These stories were recorded at The Deer Pile on March 20, 2014 by our main man Ron Doyle.

Our April show at the Deer Pile will take place on Thursday the 17th and our theme will be “GIRLS! GIRLS! GIRLS!”  We have some big announcements regarding the future of our show, so this one’s not to be missed!

The intro and outro music was produced and graciously provided by Sans Seruf, and you can find more slick beats for your earholes over at his bandcamp page.

Seeing as how we’ve survived the Ides of March yet again, let’s celebrate our foibles, our follies, and our fuck-ups with some tales of Slapstick at The Deer Pile. Whaddayasay? We have an incredible lineup…

Part two of our search for “Things I’ve Forgotten” features stories by one of our favorite regular guests, Chris Charpentier, and The Narrators’ co-host Andrew Orvedahl.  These stories were recorded at The Deer Pile on January 16th, 2013 by our main man Ron Doyle.

If you don’t know yet, The Narrators collaborated on a theatrical production with Off-Center at the Jones Theater. It’s called Lived/Re-lived and features three of our best storytellers: Jeff Campbell, Timmi Lasley, and Kelly Shortandqueer telling stories that will be reinterpreted on stage with the help of aerial ballet troupes, puppeteers, musicians, and filmmakers. The show will run on three dates: March 7th, 14th, and 21st, 2014.  Tickets are now on sale. Snatch ’em up and we’ll see you there.

Our March show at the Deer Pile will take place on Thursday the 20th and our theme will be “Slapstick!”

Thanks for listening!

Well, it’s Christmas Eve.  You’re about to embark on an epic drive over the river and through the woods to have your weird aunt breathe scotch fumes all over your neck and listen to your uncle talk about just how right Rush is and witness the tight-lipped diplomacy exuded by old married couples sharing a kitchen while cooking and gasping every few seconds as hordes of shrieking children whirl like dervishes around a house, miraculously not splitting their heads open or poking their eyes or falling off of balconies etc etc.  Or perhaps you are just waiting for a nice cup of tea to steep so you can resume your heavy hang on the couch, cozy as ever in a pair of thick socks and your sweatpants.  Regardless of your current state, you’ll hopefully receive this gift from The Narrators in good cheer.

Here is a live show that we taped at the Denver Music Summit.  The organizers invited us to put together a special show at the McNichols and invite musicians from near and far to tell “Tales From The Road.”  We had such an amazing group of stories that we thought it would be great to present all of them together.  Our storytellers include: Yonnas Abraham from The Pirate Signal and BLKHRTS, Megan Burtt, Carleigh Aikens from BAHAMAS, Jeff Linsenmaier from The Fray, The Czars, Wovenhand, Scott Booker, who manages The Flaming Lips, and Dessa from the Doomtree Collective. Your faithful hosts kick off the podcast with the story of The Mouthstepperz, their acapella dubstep band.

The intro and outro music was produced and graciously provided by Sans Seruf, and you can find more slick beats for your earholes over at his bandcamp page.

Our next show is coming up on January 16th and the theme will be “Things I’ve Forgotten.”

The Narrators are working with Off-Center at the Jones Theater on a show called Lived/Re-lived that will go into full production in March 2014.  Tickets are now on sale. Snatch ’em up.

Thanks for listening, and happy holidays!
