I stare at a computer screen all day for work and a tv screen most of the time after work. I decided to start listening to podcasts to find entertainment without a screen burning my eyeballs. I came across ARC while searching and it had quickly become my favorite podcast. The variety of stories...Read full review »

Love these stories. I often spend hours on end listening - laughing & tearing up along the way.

This brings back memories of when I lived in Mountainbrook, AL. I firmly believe southerners tell some of the best stories. Great audience reactions and sound quality for the storytellers. The only thing that bugs me is the intro music is kinda loud. I like to listen to podcasts to help me...Read full review »

Funny, sad, mad or whatever your mood ARC stories will make you forget your troubles, if only for an hour. Really enjoy listening on my commute back and forth to work.

After attending two ARC Stories shows over the past 6 months, then discovering that favorites can be heard again via podcast, I am totally devoted to the entire experience and never want to miss a single story, ever!

I recently discovered this podcast and listen to an episode every night before bed. The stories are so enjoyable, and the Southern flair from many of the storytellers is delightful!

As a Florida native, ArcStories is one of my favorite things about Birmingham, AL and whenever a friend is in town I always try and take them to an event. This podcast lets my family and friends enjoy the same stories I enjoyed in person and serves as a bonding experience. The storytellers are...Read full review »

Love the live events! The whole family listens to the podcast. It’s truly a wonderful experience and chance to bond. Inevitably after listening to the podcast or attending an event our family goes into story telling mode. Thank you all so much for what you all do!

Hi, I have just discovered your podcast and absolutely love it! I have been listening to the Moth podcasts for some time and they made reference to Arc Stories. Great stories! Trish Thomas

Such a wholesome, fun podcast. My parents were from the South and these stories remind me of listening to them across the dinner table. Thanks for such great listening pleasure!

some truley beautiful people and stories coming out of this place. Might need to relocate to Birmingham! I know just where to get my hair cut and hear stories about a wonderful gardmother with blue eyes.

When I have to make a long drive, whether in traffic or country roads I love to listen to Arc Stories. It’s like having a friend in the car. Sometimes I laugh so hard, other times I am crying. These are real people with great stories to tell. Thanks for making them available via podcast. I will...Read full review »

I first heard of this podcast from Jamie Golden. I started at the beginning of the archive and have been listening nonstop at work since.

I love this podcast and listening to the variety of stories that are presented in the episodes. The stories are poignant, hilarious, heartwarming, moving, and amazing in so many ways. This podcast is a must listen for all.

I feel like I have learned so much. I love hearing about other people life experiences and how they’ve been shaped by them. I have 100% laughed, cried and had all the feelings.

Long time listener, first time reviewer... we love this podcast and attending the live events. They make us laugh, they make us cry and never disappoint.

Would give this more stars if I could, love it. :)
Cookie509ace via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/22/18
I’ve not even listened to half of the episodes, but I’m hooked. Storytellers, mostly from my hometown of Birmingham, AL, bring their best stories, fitting with the theme of the episode. They are told at live events, and laughing along with an audience only enhances the experience. I have laughed...Read full review »

Storytelling is the one thing I didn’t know I needed in my life. I used to love sitting and listening to older relatives tell stories when I was a child. Now as an adult we’ve lost a lot of our older generation. ARC stories allows me to hear great stories and on multiple occasions has brought me...Read full review »

I’ve been enjoying these events since the year it started. When I moved to another town I lamented not being able to go anymore. This podcast has been such a joy to continue hearing great stories! Thanks for doing it!

Love going to the live events but in between events, this podcast is the best. Pro tip: it sounds even better when you eat it with a Church Street breakup cookie.
