Welcome to this week's True Fiction Project Podcast. During this episode, we are mashing up the public speaker and comedian interviews and true fiction pieces from season 3! These episodes include: How to Human 101, Brought Together by Bagels, and Faking the Grade. Each interview and story has something unique to share, ranging from an alien learning to read human body language and facial expressions to an unlikely set of neighbors who bond over bagel preferences, to a doctor turned comedian who fakes his graduation. Tune in today to hear interview snippets and full story stories from each episode! Find the link to the full episode in the notes below.IN THIS EPISODE:[00:47] Interview snippet of Brian Galke discussing how to read human faces and creating a valuable connection with someone else. [1:49] Short story, How to Human 101 by Parker James[6:55] Interview with Gastor Almonte where he talks about living in America while being a child of an immigrant and not meeting their expectations. [8:28] Short story, Brought Together by Bagels by Gastor Almonte [16:01] Interview with Shenuque Tissera about chasing his dreams despite what his parents might think. [17:56] Short story, Faking the Grade by Michael Kobzik.KEY TAKEAWAYS:Face reading is all about letting people feel seen and heard. If you attempt to speak someone's language, you will be treated differently and build better relationships. Immigrant stories are the best American stories because their world view was different, the things they had to go after were different. Many of the kids of immigrants are artists, and the work that they put in first drove the direction of their families in America.Follow your heart. Shenuque knew that he wasn't destined for the graduate school path. Once he followed his heart he was able to find a career that he absolutely loves and is wildly successful at. Check out HelloFresh and use my code 50truefictionproject for a great deal: https://www.hellofresh.com/How to Human 101A short story written and read by: Parker JamesParker Hicks LinkedIn | Parker Hicks Twitter Brought Together by BagelsShort story written by Gastor Almonte, Read by Kristen UdowitzGastor Almonte's Website | The War Report Podcast | Gastor Almonte's Facebook | Gastor Almonte Twitter | Gastor Almonte Instagram | Story Collider WebsiteFaking the GradeShort story written and read by: Michael KobzikShenuque Tissera Website | The Twenty Sided Podcast | Shenuque Tissera's Twitter Shenuque Tissera's Instagram | Shenuque Tissera's TikTok Resources:S3 EP2 How to Human 101S3 EP9 Brought Together By BagelsS3 EP12 Faking the GradeOur Sponsors:* Check out HelloFresh and use my code 50truefictionproject for a great deal: https://www.hellofresh.com/Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Welcome back to another episode of the True Fiction Project Podcast! This week on the podcast, I have the pleasure of talking to Gastor Almonte. He is a Comedy Central featured comedian and storyteller from Brooklyn NY. Gastor shares his experience being a first generation immigrant, and what it was like having parents who immigrated from the Dominican Republic. He shares the benefits he has because of the struggles that they faced coming to America, and how he still ties back everything he does to his roots. Gastor tells a hilarious story about the time he attended the wrong party and how he learned that he was in fact at the neighbors house instead of his aunts. At the end of the episode, we hear the story Brought Together by Bagels about new neighbors who struggle with garbage responsibility, but ultimately come together over their love of bagels. IN THIS EPISODE:[2:28] Gastor introduces himself and talks about his profession.[3:05] Gastor discusses his debut standup album, Immigrant Made, and why he chose that title.[5:18] Why Gastor thinks immigrant stories are the best American stories.[9:00] Is there a big difference between an immigrant and a 1st generation child?[13:48] Gastor shares a hilarious story about a party he attended that he wasn't really supposed to be at. [23:27] What is The Story Collider? [25:48] The short story, Brought Together by Bagels, written by Gastor Almonte and narrated by Kristen Udowitz.KEY TAKEAWAYS:Immigrant stories are the best American stories because their world view was different, the things they had to go after were different. Many of the kids of immigrants are artists, and the work that they put in first drove the direction of their families in America.As a 1st generation American, the challenges are a lot less than what immigrant parents had to go through. Their stakes were much higher and 1st generation children are automatically granted many opportunities that immigrants weren't.Taking opportunities to meet people and get to know them can turn into great stories as well as bonus friendships that we wouldn't otherwise have!

In the last few months two renowned comedians have experienced violence on stage. Chris Rock was slapped during the Oscar's ceremony and Dave Chapelle was attacked during one of his shows by a member of the public. In this week's The Cultural Frontline we explore the risks and challenges of performing comedy today. Indonesian comedian Sakdiyah Ma'ruf and US comic Gastor Almonte discuss the current situation for comedians and what can and cannot be said on stage. Ukrainian comedian Anna Kochegura lives in Kyiv and has been performing stand-up for the past five years. Like many comedians, she bases her work on her daily life. However since the Russian invasion in February, her daily life has turned 180 degrees on its head. She tells us about the role of comedy during a time of war. Sharul Channa is a rare thing in Singapore – a full time female comedian. Despite opposition she's now a popular comic, determined to bring female topics to the stage and prove that women can be laugh out loud funny.

This week, our host, Erin Barker, is joined on the podcast by the hosts of our online live shows, Gastor Almonte and Paula Croxson, to introduce two fan-favorite stories from the past year of Story Collider’s online live shows. Part 1: Just as she’s doubting her identity as a scientist, Johana Goyes Vallejos is asked to give a presentation about her work to high school students. Part 2: Growing up, Sam loves learning about biology from his scientist mother until one day, when he asks her, “Can you change if you're a boy or a girl?” Dr. Johana Goyes Vallejos is a Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Missouri. She graduated with a B.Sc. in Biology in Colombia and received her Ph.D. in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology from the University of Connecticut. Her research has taken her to many tropical forests across the world, including Panama, Costa Rica, Guyana, the Philippines, Malaysia and Brunei Darussalam. At the University of Missouri, Dr. Goyes Vallejos continues her research on mating behavior and parental care strategies using frogs with elaborate parental behaviors as study systems. Sam Long is a Chinese-American-Canadian trans man and a high school science teacher. He is a co-founder of GenderInclusiveBiology.com and the Colorado Transgender/Non-binary Educators Network.

5 Words with Sean Patton & Caitlin Cook

I met this week’s guest whilst filming an episode of Ari Shaffir’s This is not Happening. He immediately stood out as a great storyteller and overall good human being by the name of Gastor Almonte. He co-hosts a great podcast called The War report (With 5 Words alum Shalewe Sharpe from episode ). We really chow down on some conversation here, and I believe we lay the foundation for our own religion. One where no one ever dies unless they’re an asshole. It’s a great episode and here are five words to describe it: just buy a fucking house See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Has there been a more charming guest on the show than Gastor Almonte? Hard to think of one. His presence, timing, sense of humour and humanity are all larger than life. What a complete and total pleasure to have him share his talent and vulnerability with me this week. Do yourself a favour and watch this (it's one of the Comedy Central appearances Gastor referred to in the story and its hilarious) when you're done watching that check out his story Heavy High & Far which originally introduced me to this guy's talents. Gastor also has his own podcast (The War Report) which he co-hosts with fellow stand up Shalewa Sharpe. You should check it out and follow Gastor on Twitter, Insta and Facebook.  Oh, and don't forget to listen to his record Immigrant Made. I have been going down a MAJOR 90s (and related) hip hop rabbit hole since recording my interview with Gastor a couple of months back. As such, it was super fun to put together this week's playlist From Queensbridge to East New York. The list looks a little like the train trip I described in the intro to this week's show (minus the Jay Z. Just not my thing). I hope you enjoy it. Make sure you follow The Volume Knob on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook or at our website volumeknob.net.And if you have a story about the song that saved your life be sure to send it to me at volumeknobpod@gmail.com.
