Show Notes
In this ever so slightly Halloween flavoured episode, we bring you 3 stories recorded live onstage at The Sugar Club in the heart of Dublin. The theme of the evening was FEAR and in this episode you'll hear a story about a spooky pumpkin, swimming with the dolphins and overcoming our biggest fear on and offstage.
Huge thanks to our storytellers, Mabel Mnensa, Sarah Downes & Colman Walsh.

Have you ever felt like you didn't belong? Like you weren't part of a group or a community and stuck out like a sore thumb. In this episode of The Dublin Story Slam we're sharing three stories inspired by that feeling of being an outsider. From joing a dance studio with zero experience to joining a football club with no interest in football to joining a collective when you felt like nobody liked you. These are stories that celebrate courage, community and going from being an outsider to feeling like you belong. Thanks to Alex Biarozkin, Céire Sadlier & Anna Murphy.
