Storytellers Podcast

Since the beginning of time there has been storytellers. Before the advanced technology that we have today history was passed through word of mouth. In Western African culture storytellers were called Griots. They would be the keepers of all the stories in the village, and pass them on by music, poem, or spoken verse. It's said when a Griot died it was like a library being burned down, so the Griots passed their abilities through their bloodline. I like most of you have always been fascinated with stories. Since childhood we probably all could remember getting lost in a good story tellers tale. In this podcast storyteller and international speaker and author Cornell Thomas, will be interviewing and eclectic group of people from all over the world. His mission is to find the stories in their lives that shaped who they are today.
