I sat down w two wonderful ladies Megan McGee and Nicole Acosta from the event planning organization Ex Fabula, whose mission is to build community through monthly live storytelling open mics and workshops. Each open mic has a different theme. They are also my sponsors!!! We have a new partnership, and I'll be doing episodes monthly that will correspond to that month's theme. I'm very excited to work with them :) We discussed Ex Fabula and its origin, signs (October's theme), irrational fears, nicknames, and the community built through their events. Their next StorySlam is this Thursday at Company Brewing, starting at 7:30. Get your tickets now!!--- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/ben-slowey/support
