Watching the presiding of political trials rarely catches my interest. I wait for the highlights on the news, probably like most people. The downside to this is that the highlights may not have info in there that is important to me. Information that would change how I think about a person or issue. Too bad boring, political information can’t be told in a more interesting way. Or can it?

Enter The Report, a Lawfare Podcast Series (with local DC help from Ian Enright at Goat Rodeo). They take a look at the Muller report in a way that cuts through dry, double talk that is so common when politicians and lawyers talk in the same place. The podcast puts the Muller report in perspective as an understandable narrative. In this way, it reminds me of the Crash Course YouTube series that takes complex matters and makes them easy for others to understand.

One of the things I love about this podcast is I have an easy way to understand a matter that I should be paying attention to. Another is that I get to follow information about the Muller report without have to actually take up large part of my work day to hear it. Instead I listen to it on my commute. In the DC, MD, VA area, we know that’s a lot of time.

After years of being an instructor in the military and the and the fire service, I realized I needed to improve my delivery. My students needed me to improve delivery. But how do I improve my delivery? Simple. I finally took a member of Toastmasters up on the invitation to come to a meeting. It wasn't long until I joined. Along the way of improving my skills at delivering a message, I came to understand that of all the ways to get a point across, telling stories is the best way to get it done. Around this time, another friend from Toastmasters told me about The Moth monthly story telling shows. What better way to test out my theories on storytelling. It's in my travels there to the shows that I found more and more shows, and classes, and events centered around storytelling. Despite how many people know about the storytelling world, not many people know about the storytelling world. So now, I'm out to tell the world about storytelling.
