The Story Well with Kyle Olson TruStory FM

Friend of the show Ryan Dalton was kind enough to take a break from his novel writing for a return visit us to the Story Well. We’ll discuss what makes a great villain. Then we take a step to the seedier side of the street as we plan a noir tale unlike any you’ve ever read. 

Podcast impresario Pete Wright sits down at the table to discuss how quickly he knows if he’s about to watch a great film. Then we venture into the Dust Bowl to revisit a classic fairy tale and give it some soul, alongside a mischief of rats. 

Actress, singer, audiobook narrator, podcaster, is there anything Mandy Kaplan can’t do? She joins us at the table to talk about what elements can make a great movie into a great musical. Then we’ll see if we can put some new life into the Great White Way as we try to come up with a Broadway show of our own. 

Actor Justin Kent joins us at the table. You might have heard his voice in the cast recording of Rockabye, an original musical playing Bobby, or as a frequent performer on the Swashbuckling Ladies Debate Society audio drama podcast. We’ll discuss what make a bad movie good and then set out on an international manhunt to prevent bad vibes from infecting the world, in an original idea which we’ll share with you. 

Filmmaker and podcaster Tom Metz joins us at the table to discuss whether its better to known the origins of evil or keep it a mystery. Then we head to the land of bluegrass to make up a story about lies and secrets alongside the sharp taste of hard liquor. 

Reunited, and it feels so good. Former Marvel Movie Minute co-hosts Kyle Olson and Rob Kubasko have reunited here in The Story Well. We start with a step back in time to discuss how storytelling works in the political world. Then we make up a brand new story using some familiar friends taking a walk in the woods. It’s no bother.
