Let the wheel spin, faster and faster
The other day I was laying in bed and listening to a podcast, thinking about what it is that make people tick. It was a moth podcast, and it was a story by Kyp Malone. Now I have talked about this podcast with a few people and have received the same similar to luke warm response. "Its not the best story", "he doesn't delivery it well" are some of the comments. I do agree that for there have been many better podcasts and stories told i have listened to. Great storytellers who could be telling the shitiest stories and still make them interesting to hear. I truly believe that storytelling is an art! But this podcast it wasn't about the delivery it was about what he was saying. How honest his story was, how he was himself. We live in a world were we have studied people for ever and now we try to categorize people by the way they deal with conflict, or the way they brush their teeth, whatever it may be. It all seems like we are trying to create molds for people. If you don't fit into this mold, then you are in trouble, or outcast, or worse picked on. In the effort to bring more understanding to how people tick we are limiting people.
Every once in awhile someone sticks out of that mold and it is refreshing to see! This is what I loved so much about this podcast.
