Description

We like to say that Burning Man is made of a million stories. Catherine Burns is the artistic director of The Moth. It’s a wildly popular, Peabody-award winning storytelling series now celebrating its 20th year.Burning Man stories have been told many times on the Moth stage. As it turns out, Catherine has a few Burning Man stories of her own. Stuart and Andie talk with her about loving, grieving, and celebrating as a participant at Black Rock City, and just why storytelling inspired her to devote her life to helping other people tell stories of their own.Michael Vav shares about the Metric Time Trainer that works with Alexa and Siri, but not “Mike” the smart microwave that burned Vav’s toaster pastry. https://themoth.org/LIVE.BURNINGMAN.ORG
