Welcome To The Waffle-Free Storytelling Podcast! There are a few layers to this little tale. It could be about the bullies in the world. People who, for no reason at all, take pleasure in breaking things. Typically, they get away with it until you say no. When you say NO, the universe steps in and helps out. Or it's about the giants within that you must stand up to and defeat if you're going to cr...

Your own path you make with ev...

Welcome To The Waffle-Free Storytelling Podcast! We all have visions and plans, wishes and desires for things we want and ways we want to be. But somehow, year after year, we look back on our lives only to get annoyed with ourselves because we still haven't got the thing we want.

Welcome To The Waffle-Free Storytelling Podcast! I wrote this little story after weeks and weeks of saying, "I can't do that thing... I can't go to that place... I can't see that person... I've got too much work on." Enough was enough. It didn't make sense. Work was becoming an excuse not to be in the world! And that's how Bromenin and Korelli came to be. When the story is done, refill your mug an...

Welcome To The Waffle-Free Storytelling Podcast! This is an odd little tale about how we came to compare ourselves. How random our measures are.

Welcome To The Waffle-Free Storytelling Podcast! We notice the noise-makers in the world. The people who call themselves leaders but are useless at best and downright criminal at worst. We all have "leaders" who come to mind when we think about it. The ones who really make the world go around often go unnoticed. We don't even notice when they've gone because they've passed the torch to make sure t...
