Cool personal stories from NYC
I saw this on a friend's feed on Facebook and decided to catch it as it started. These are interviews with New Yorkers to hear their stories about/in the city. I love these kinds of stories -- where you get a glimpse into someone's life that you would otherwise pass by on the street without a second thought, and you hear them out and realize that we all have a story to tell.
Just real
These stories are so intriguing. The location, setting, random disruptions and background noise really paint a picture here. This is my favorite thing to listen to on my long commutes.
New Yorkers for New Yorkers ! A must listen!
