Welcome to Media Training and Story Making. I'm your host, Wyeth Ruthven, I teach people the skills to tell their own stories. I've been a media trainer for ten years, a political operative for twenty years and story teller my whole life.
I believe two things about podcasts. First, most podcasts are too long. Second, most podcasts are too topical.
Media Training and Story Making is committed to podcasts that are less than 20 minutes in length. Each episode contains a media training tip, a book review, a story, and an interview. You can listen to these episodes at any time, and any order.
