At Story Luck, we have met hundreds of storytellers, both on our stage, and elsewhere. And let me tell you… Some subjects are more difficult than others. But if there’s one thing we never do, …
Storytelling serves as one of the most powerful tools for human connection and learning, forging bonds between people and ideas while making complex information more memorable and engaging than traditional fact-based communication. Research shows that …
Let me let you into my life for a hot minute. One thing I do at Story Luck is reach out to our storytelling features ahead of a show to kinda touch base. And after …

Ray Whitehouse is a friend of ours and last May he came in and did a full documentary run through of the race. Over the next few weeks we will be highlighting a ton of his work.
At Here’s the Story, we are always looking for new ways and new places to share stories. And so Sept. 8th and 9th you will find us at the Chicago Renegade Craft Fair. We will have artwork available from various artists. Artists like, Amy Kuttab, Kenton Quatman, Brandon Knowlden, Caitlyn Eakins, Jennifer Parks, Rachel Howard, and Aria Alexander-Manifold! Just to name a few.
Yeah, last year we had an amazing ChicagoRCF experience, and this year, we said, “We owe them a booth for such an adventure.” Also, we are total crafty crafters, not to mention we know that slew of artists listed above.
This is Here’s the Story’s most awesome month yet. And to celebrate we’ve decided to dabble in fundraising Kickstarter style. If you have any great Kickstarter Anecdotes to tell us, please hit us with them. We are very excited about this opportunity, and are looking forward to learning the ins and outs of crowd-founding, and believe it will grow our base and help keep us motivated.

This show is one I’m crazy excited about. Both Frank Bergh and AK Nacer are people I’ve been trying to get pinned down for some time. These two guys are voices I don’t get to hear often, and they’re bringing stories that aren’t already in the community. Thanks everyone for doing this!
First off, special thanks to Monte for getting us these awesome photos, right after the show!
Second! Wow, 46 people filled out cards and we ended up with a tie. Both Ron and Xavier scored the exact same number of points. That’s crazy! They also scored the exact same number of 15s!
When counting up all the points I found it a little ironic that Ron got the most points from the three people in the audience who refused to be constrained by our tyrannical rules. Only 50 points! Pfft, how about I try and give away 61! Or, only 15 to one person? I’m going to drop 35 on on one person! What are they going to do? Normalize the scores, just like they said at the beginning of the show?
It’s great because that’s totally the sort of stunt I would pull, not out of malice to rules, but because I’m that bad at math.
We have a wonderful line-up of featured tellers in August, and we cannot wait to share them with you! Reggie Eldridge, Dana Noris, Jen Bosworth, Vernon Mina and Lily BE, all in one room!!! Join us August 5th for Here’s the Story’s next show!

This year’s course is majestic. This years course is one that will test your stamina and reignite why you fell in love with JEN in the first place.
This is the second iteration of the Robot Apocalypse version of JEN. As such we have new twists created by a team that’s been here before.
The game rules are the same. The story is the same. But the core is enhanced.
