Daily Grind
Episode 76
Thursday, 30 October, 2025
Welcome to the York Story Slam podcast, where we feature select stories from our monthly open mic storytelling events in York, Pennsylvania. On August 19, seven storytellers shared their stories with our audience at The Hangar at New York Wire Works, in downtown York. The theme for our August story slam was DAILY GRIND. We heard stories about first jobs, career trajectories, and “other duties as assigned.” In the end, our winner was Debbie Gable, who shared a story about how much she has always loved to work, and some of her key takeaways as she nears retirement. Debbie earned a spot in our Grand Slam in November. Our next story comes from Mike Reed, who shared a story about lessons learned in his first jobs as a blacktop paver and a reporter. Our final story on this month’s podcast comes from Rachael Prensner, who told the story of the chaos she experienced in her first foray into waitressing. All the winners from this year’s open mic story slam events will return at the end of the season to compete for the title of Best Storyteller in York at our Grand Slam. Updates on our events are available on our website, YorkStorySlam.com, and while you’re there, you can sign up for our monthly newsletter. You can also follow us on Facebook, and watch videos of all the stories from our events on our YouTube channel. We hope to see you on stage soon! Thanks for listening.
