I Am These People

About I Am These People

I Am These People is a fiction podcast for the times you want to take a break from your own world view and visit someone else's. Each episode brings you to a location you might visit every day or every week, out of habit, or obligation, or by chance. A parking lot, a church, the local diner. Listen to one episode to meet three characters, tragically intertwined by the places they return to again and again. Listen to the whole season to map out an interconnected community of people who notice each other, sometimes know each other, and, they don’t always know it, but they just might need each other. As you listen, you can expect to say, "I know these people!", or "I hate these people," and ultimately, "Wait! I am these people!"
