Ira Glass on Storytelling

I am working on my handouts for the storytelling program I’m doing at ASTD’s national conference in May and in the Suggested Resources section, I just included Ira Glass’s video series on storytelling, and thought “Why haven’t you shared this with your StoriesThatChange.com folks yet?

So, here it is!

In case you don’t know Ira Glass, he’s the creative force behind This American Life, which every week gives great examples of how to tell stories well. Besides the content itself being interesting, I recommend listening to TAL as a “learn by listening” resource that will help you hone your storytelling skills.

Here’s his four part series:
