THE PROJECT
Storied: San Francisco is a collection of stories about life in San Francisco and the Bay Area. The goal is to further enrich the experience of living here by learning about the many and varied people who've come before us, and who continue to add to the feeling that this place is special. This place, San Francisco, is special, and these stories illustrate that. I hope that you'll be inspired to share your own stories. After all, we're all in this together.
My name is Jeff. I moved to San Francisco in 2000. Right away, I was struck by the art and culture of this vibrant town. They were a big part of what drew me here, after all. In 2008, I helped found Muni Diaries—a place where people share public transit stories. In addition to helping run the website, I set up and ran Muni Diaries' Twitter account. Starting in 2009, we produced biannual live storytelling shows, and in 2016, we launched a podcast.
I've taken what I learned with that project and used it as a foundation for Storied: San Francisco. I want this to be a place for rich, insightful, and inspiring stories. In the podcasts, people share their stories in as natural a way as possible: through conversation.
Head over to the Episodes section of the site to hear and read about the latest stories. Please follow us on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram. And if you hear the podcast on iTunes, please rate and review us. It helps us get the word out to more folks.
It wouldn't be right not to give props to some podcasts that inspire me, so here you go:
Bitch Talk
Dorking Out
Criminal
Radiolab
More Perfect (by Radiolab)
WTF
Pod Save America
The Big Event (Peter Hartlaub of the SF Chronicle)
Thanks, and I hope you enjoy!
