Hey, Story Seekers! Welcome to Seeking Stories, where we unlock the secrets of your favorite books and movies. Or, perhaps it would be more accurate for me to welcome you to this spin-off podcast of Seeking Stories, where I (Ryan) do a podcast vlog (is that a thing?) of the books I've read and movies I've watched in the last day, to give you some fresh ideas on what to read and watch....or, what you might want to skip! I'll be "vlog-casting" most weekdays, and I look forward to sharing my reading/watching journey with you!
