Welcome to the Team, Zach and Nora!
The Now Listen Here team has recently gone through some changes as one member moved on and two more came aboard. Julie Baker left in December in order to pursue a new project. And in January, Nora Weiss and Zach Stewart accepted official roles as producers of the series after being long time supporters of the series. Learn more about Zach and Nora on our About Us page.
Now Listen Here and You, Live on Instagram
Starting over the winter months, the Now Listen Here team has been working on putting together a live series on Instagram. So far we have managed to post three episodes while working on honing our skills. We are a work in progress and as the series evolves, we’ll keep posting episodes. The Instagram series is focused on providing stories from many first time tellers about their own experiences and are followed up with short Q&A sessions about the storytellers and their experiences.
If you have a great story to tell or know someone that does, email the team at Stories@NowListenHere.org and we’ll try to get them on the show!
Live Show Dates Coming Soon.
We will soon be anouncing live show dates and locations. We have been hard at work trying to secure locations for safe outdoor locations. Check back soon!
Not sure if you’re ready to get in front of a crowd to share your story? Have no fear, we need you there just to soak in the stories. Without an audience, we’ve go no stories to share. Are you interested in becoming a storyteller but want some training first, great, we’ve got you covered in that regard as well. Now Listen Here offers workshops on storytelling that are open to all interested in becoming better public speakers.
Workshop sessions will be held digitally for the foreseeable future.
