OPES: Ordinary People, Extraordinary Stories

Comedy EN ↓ 57 episodes

Hello! My name is Tristan and welcome to my podcast! Throughout my life, I have met amazing people, and heard amazing stories. So much that I decided to do this podcast so that YOU get to meet these wonderful people. Ordinary People, Extraordinary stories (or OPES), is going to be my monthly podcast where I will introduce a guest and share a bit about their story. From this we will go into other discussions relating to that story. We're talking differences between mice and men, to talented artists or just working joes. Our saying goes, "Every person a gem, every story, a treasure."
