What happens when you put someone on stage to tell their personal story in front of their community? Unexpected and unforgettable connection. In this episode of Cut to the Chase: Podcast, Gregg Goldfarb sits down with David Levy, the Founder and Artistic Director of Cincinnati's True Theatre, for an eye-opening conversation about the power of unscripted, real-life storytelling. Inspired by The Moth, David built a thriving storytelling community in Cincinnati where everyday people take the stage to share honest, personal stories around universal themes, from love to crime to the color blue. In this episode, David pulls back the curtain on how True Theatre operates: how storytellers are selected, how themes are chosen, how live events are produced, and why authenticity—not performance—creates the deepest human connection. Whether you're a storytelling enthusiast, a lawyer looking to improve your narrative skills, or simply curious about personal growth and community-building, this episode offers inspiring stories and a roadmap for getting involved (or even launching your own storytelling event).   What to expect in this episode: How True Theatre turns ordinary people into unforgettable storytellers The secret behind using single-word themes to spark powerful, unexpected stories What really happens behind the scenes: pitches, coaching, and picking the perfect lineup Why raw, unscripted stories connect audiences more than polished performances How storytelling strengthens communities and deepens human connection The surprising ways storytelling transforms self-awareness and personal growth How to start your own storytelling event (with no prior experience) Why authenticity (not perfection) is the ultimate storytelling superpower Upcoming themes for True Theatre: True Love (Jan 22, 2026), True Bird, and a return of True Crime Stay tuned for more updates, and don't miss our next deep dive on Cut to the Chase: Podcast with Gregg Goldfarb!   Subscribe, rate, review, and share this episode of the Cut to the Chase: Podcast!   Resources: Attend a live True Theatre show or livestream: https://truetheatre.org  Pitch a story or start a similar event: Email David Levy at dave@truetheatre.org  Follow @truetheatre on Instagram & Facebook for updates The Moth: https://themoth.org    This episode was produced and brought to you by Reignite Media.

We live in a culture that's so obsessed with food and body image that most of us have learned to ignore our own hunger cues. We've been taught that control is strength, that shrinking is success, that discipline somehow equals worthiness. And for so many of us, especially as women, that conditioning runs really deep.There's this constant pressure, both internal and external, to bounce back after pregnancy, to get it right, to do better. And underneath all of it is a quiet exhaustion that comes from trying to fight our bodies instead of learning to understand them.I know you've found yourself caught in that tug-of-war, thinking you “should be stronger.” I have too. It's a constant teeter totter between convincing myself that I don't care because I honor my sacred body so deeply, and then suddenly questioning, what am I even talking about, if I love my body this much, shouldn't I want to feel good in it?I recently read that 75% of women will experience some form of eating disorder or body image struggle at some point in their lives. Seventy five percent. That means almost every woman you know has spent time believing she's broken, when really, her body has just been trying to communicate.This isn't an episode about body image, it's about how we actually feel inside.I've gone through seasons where I didn't trust my own hunger, where I tried to outsmart my cravings, where I told myself that if I just had more willpower, I'd finally feel good in my skin. But that never brought peace.What I've learned is that participating in this never ending pendulum of pressure only pulls us further away from what our bodies have been trying to tell us all along.Thanks for listening!

Dive into the darkest corners of reality with host Walter Sterling filling in for Lionel and guest expert Dave Scott, a known Canadian and host of Spaced Out Radio. This is all-night radio at its best: live, top of mind, and asking the crucial question: who's in charge of everything?.The show challenges the comforting delusion that Americans cannot keep big secrets. Sterling argues that major conspiracies—like a controlled demolition bringing down the World Trade Center or the existence of UFOs and lizard men—must be true because hundreds of people can keep their mouths shut, a fact proven by every boy knowing how to see into the girls' locker room in high school.Topics explored include the 9/11 controlled demolition theories, including the potential role of expensive asbestos removal, the truth behind Bell Labs buying up most of Roswell, New Mexico, and the fate of the surviving alien from the 1947 crash. Plus, deep dives into UFO technology allegedly 120 years ahead of public knowledge and now potentially housed in private corporate hands like Lockheed Skunk Works. Finally, unpack the wildest theory of all: that the JFK assassination was staged using special effects bladders, and no shots were actually fired in Daily Plaza. Learn more about your ad choices.

Who knew that olive oil makes head lice sleepy? Jennifer Hayden rejoins the show to celebrate her new graphic memoir/anti-cookbook, WHERE THERE'S SMOKE, THERE'S DINNER: Confessions of a Cartoonist Cook (Top Shelf), share comedic tales of domestic mess, and rebel against the expectations of wife/motherhood. We talk about the lifetime of bad cooking that led to this new book, the revenge of turning her bad experiences into comedy, how she found a unique form to tell her story, and how a youthful reading of Babar left her with a lifelong phobia of mushrooms. We get into how she was reverse-inspired by Lucy Knisley's Relish, how watercolors gave her a color toolbox for her comics, what this book taught her about storytelling, and how her daughter diagnosed her as "expectation-allergic." We also discuss how she's been cheating on comics with spoken word storytelling, what life after memoir is like, how her breast-cancer memoir doubled as a last will & testament for her family, the process of finding a new creative process and narrative voice, her shamanic experience attending The Moth, the significance of the tarot card she repeatedly draws when she's hard at work on a book, why the folk names of herbs are like edible emotion, and more.

Shalom Auslander goes on vacation with his family, and suspects the beloved, chatty old man in the room next door is an imposter—and sets out to prove it. This and other stories about the pitfalls of making snap judgments about others. Visit thisamericanlife.org/lifepartners to sign up for our premium subscription.Prologue: Amy Roberts thought it was obvious that she was an adult, not a kid, and she assumed the friendly man working at the children's museum knew it too. Unfortunately, the man had Amy pegged all wrong. And by the time she figured it out, it was too late for either of them to save face. Host Ira Glass talks to Amy about the embarrassing ordeal that taught her never to assume she knows what someone else is thinking. (8 minutes)Act One: While riding in a patrol car to research a novel, crime writer Richard Price witnessed a misunderstanding that, for many people, is pretty much accepted as an upsetting fact of life. Richard Price told this story, which he describes as a tale taken from real life and dramatized, onstage at The Moth in New York. (12 minutes)Act Two: There are situations where making judgments about people based on limited information is not only accepted but required. One of those situations is open adoption, where birth mothers actually choose the adoptive parents for their child. Producer Nancy Updike talks to a pregnant woman named Kim, going through the first stage of open adoption: reading dozens of letters from prospective parents, all of whom seem utterly capable and appealing. (6 minutes)Act Three: David Rakoff picks a fight with a hit Broadway show. (6 minutes)Act Four: Shalom Auslander tells the story of the time he went on vacation, pegged the guest in the room next door as an imposter, and devoted his holiday to trying to prove it. Shalom is the author of Feh: a Memoir. (22 minutes)Transcripts are available at thisamericanlife.orgThis American Life privacy policy.Learn more about sponsor message choices.

She finds another notable guest star (Riz Ahmed!) to be her empty-headed vibes friend (with benefits) for the weekend, and to give her a bit of perspective on the difference between bonding over loving things, and hating things. Marnie and Ray babe themselves into what might be the beginning of the end of something, Shosh and Ray act like an old married couple and Marnie and Desi divorce themselves into another problem. Adam and Jessa meanwhile have put their violent domestic disputes behind them and have regressed into a couple of nude cavepeople for some reason. GIRLS! FINAL SEASON!

Point Pleasant is typically a peaceful and unassuming town in West Virginia. But behind the country town facade lies a dark mystery of a terrifying creature who wreaked havoc on the residents.

If you're a moth trying to stay uneaten, there are competing strategies. Some moths rely on camouflage, trying to blend in. Other moths take the opposite approach: They're bold and bright, with colors that say “don't eat me, I'm poison.” Biologist Iliana Medina joins Host Flora Lichtman to describe a study that placed some 15,000 origami moths in forests around the world to investigate which strategy might work best. Then, mammologist Anderson Feijó and evolutionary biologist Rafaela Missagia join Flora to dive into another evolutionary conundrum: why so many rodents have thumbnails. Guests: Dr. Iliana Medina Guzman is a Senior Lecturer in the School of BioSciences at the University of Melbourne in Australia.Dr. Anderson Feijó is a mammal curator at the Field Museum in Chicago. Dr. Rafaela Missagia is an assistant professor at the University of São Paulo in Brazil.Transcripts for each episode are available within 1-3 days at sciencefriday.com.  Subscribe to this podcast.
