Ronna lives in Brooklyn but is a lifelong Boston Red Sox fan. She is a Moth Slam winner, has been featured on the PBS-WGBH Stories from the Stage series, and is a National Storytelling Network (US) slam finalist. You can learn more about her by visiting her web site or following her on Instagram or Twitter.If you're interested in getting tickets to see Keith (and five very talented storytellers) at the PHI Centre in Montreal, just follow this link! Hope to see you there.As for Lionel Richie's All Night Long (All Night) (YES! That's the full title) it's pretty easy to underestimate as a cultural phenomenon in the early 80s. First of all, those of us of (um) a certain age will remember that Richie performed it at the closing ceremonies of the 1984 Olympics in Los Angeles. The single itself went to number one in six different countries (including Canada) and the video (which, to be honest, is a hilarious throwback for me today) was actually produced by Mike Nesmith of the Monkees. Too much 80s pop culture!!!  As always, the story might sound even a little bit more interesting to you if you listen to the whole song. (Or if you're interested in a little rabbit-hole, Jacob Collier's Grammy winning re-arrangement)As always, remember to follow the show on instagram, twitter and facebook and to get over to the website to sign up for the TVK mailing list.  

Sweet Axl Rose talks dirty and an interview with storyteller extraordinaire Adam Wade, 20-time Moth Slam winner. This episode was produced by Rob Schulte Brought to you By: The Sonar Network

This week, we bring you two stories about the struggle to find balance during the COVID-19 pandemic, whether it's as a scientist, a mother, or all of the above. Part 1: Psychiatrist Xiaosi Gu studies COVID-19's impact on mental health, just as her own begins to deteriorate. Part 2: Stacey Bader Curry's family and career are thriving — until the pandemic throws it all into chaos. Dr. Xiaosi Gu is one of the foremost researchers in the area of computational psychiatry. Her research examines the neural and computational mechanisms underlying human beliefs, decision making, and social interaction in both health and disease, through a synthesis of neuroscience, cognitive science, and behavioral economics approaches. After receiving a Bachelor's degree in Psychology and Economics from Peking University in Beijing, Dr. Gu moved to New York City to pursue a Ph.D. in Neuroscience at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. Dr. Gu then completed her postdoctoral training in computational psychiatry at Virginia Tech and the Wellcome Trust Centre for Neuroimaging, University College London (UCL). During her time in London, she founded the world's first computational psychiatry course at UCL. Before re-joining Mount Sinai, Dr. Gu held faculty positions at the University of Texas, Dallas and UT Southwestern Medical Center. She is currently an Assistant Professor in Psychiatry and Neuroscience, and a Principal Investigator at the Friedman Brain Institute and the Addiction Institute at Mount Sinai. Stacey Bader Curry is a writer and storyteller who lives in Maine. She is an 8-time Moth Slam winner, including a Grand Slam, and has performed on PBS' Stories From the Stage, and many podcasts.

Brian Finkelstein discusses what goes on inside his "How to Hate Yourself" voice. Even though he ran the NY Marathon, has 2 Emmy noms and seems to win every Moth Slam, it somehow persists. INCLUDED is a  clip from a recent LIVE "How to Hate Yourself" show at the Hollywood Improv where he explains why he hates LA. He's very wise and I go so far as to compare his tweets to Pema Chodron quotes, to mixed results. Enjoy! You'll never feel sad again.
