Too many staggered sentences and unnecessary pauses.

I like the show. I’m nowhere near Baltimore, but stories are stories and I enjoy listening to most of them. My only criticism is that as a podcast, you should be very concerned with sound, and the quality therein. Both of the hosts sound like absolute hot garbage, and can barely be understood....Read full review »

I listen to almost all of the personal storytelling podcasts. And I’m not even from the east coast let alone Baltimore. But I find that these stories are much more everyday guy then the moth ( far two liberal ) bed post confessions ( I’ve never heard of half that stuff and I’m glad ) anyway...Read full review »

Love The Stoop storytelling series because its not as polished as the Moth. I do wish there was searchable database so could my absolute favorite podcast of all time..... I’m certain it was here because its SO Baltimore- it concerns an employee at Medieval Times. I think about it often and would...Read full review »

...And if you are too, than this is well worth listening to. Biggest complaint is that it’s too short, you get into the theme and it’s suddenly over. The hosts’ intro and exit comments end up taking up a big chunk of the run time. It’s similar to The Moth or Porchlight although not quite as good....Read full review »

Look forward to every new podcast! Love the Baltimore girls - want to hang out with them!

I just listened to my first podcast from “The Stoop Storytelling Series”, called “In-Laws”. The second story proved to be highly critical of non-whitebread (and frankly normal)families, calling them “freaky families“. I’m amazed “The Stoop” chose to air this story. The storyteller, Sherry Mauers,...Read full review »

Thank you hosts and thank you storytellers. Life stories broaden your world and lead to more understanding. A Dutch listener and fan 🙋🏼‍♀️

First time I listened I was new in town and took me a while to know what people were talking about... but now I’m in love with the podcast and the people and the city! It makes me feel happy and proud of living here!

If you like the Moth, you’ll probably like this storytelling podcast too. The stories aren’t always as polished and worked on as the Moth but they are still very entertaining. Would have given it a 5 except for the hosts. I usually fast forward through their introductions.

I love the stoop! Great alternative to the moth. I love the stories and how raw they are. The stoop provides me with more stories every week that I love.
glittersister via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/15/19
I love the Moth but I wanted more and started searching out different storytelling podcasts and when this came up I really liked the name “The Stoop”, so clever! I didn’t know it was a Baltimore thing and I haven’t lived in Baltimore but I have fallen in love with her and everybody’s storys . I...Read full review »

I enjoy them and the Baltimore flavor is familiar to someone who lives pretty close to that town.
festermatt via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/04/18
Storytelling podcasts are my thing. Moth, Risk, Snap Judgement, Story Collider, Neighbors, Strangers....you see my point. While the stories featured here are generally less polished, they are oftentimes exceptionally entertaining. I give only 3 stars because the ‘hosts’ of this podcast are,...Read full review »

This podcast is jovial, uplifting, sad, inspiring and something totally unique. Stories are crafted by amateurs to professionals. Each unique and special. Love the Baltimore connection and live shows are amazing! Kudos!

This show always lifts my spirits.😌 I love hearing about the experiences and lives of others. Thanks for sharing and producing this show.

For the win!

Love the stories! Very moth like
Tomgebe via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/10/18
However, the hosts are utterly insufferable.
Raudskeggr via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/02/18
If you’re in between Moth episodes and looking for something similar, this is a good option. Stories are produced fairly well but the hosts can take away from it. Their banter comes off as more about themselves and less about the speakers/story/theme. I usually just scrub past that and get to...Read full review »

I love this podcast so much I don't even bother skipping through the (short) ads about Michelle's granola, despite living on the other side of the world. The back-and-forth between Laura and Jessica is great and the stories are beautifully curated and told.
Cosarongway via Apple Podcasts · New Zealand · 01/29/18
I discovered this accidentally when I was looking for episodes of The Moth or Risk! I really enjoy storytelling podcasts, especially when there’s a variety of themes. I’m listening to episodes from years ago and am hoping it’s still in existence; I haven’t checked. I subscribed and am looking...Read full review »

Overall well produced stories. Many are engaging. For me, I have to forward past the two hosts’s banter. Just painful to listen to them. Really awful. I’ve finally unsubscribed and scrub to where the story part begins. Do they even listen to their own tapes?
Lonegranger via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/11/17
As a newbie, this place has been a bit of a shock to my system but listening to these stories brings me closer to rooting myself in this community
centgent08 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/20/17
The Stoop Storytelling Series is a great regional brag for those of us in the Baltimore/DC/in-between orbit—it's local, it's accessible, and is deftly curated, counseled, and produced by Laura Wexler and Jessica Myles Henkin. It's on a par with more well-known storytelling series...Read full review »

I love this podcast as a former Baltimorean. I love listing to this podcast and then randomly hearing someone that I know or cross paths with at some point in smalltimore. I love the themes and the hostesses are awesome.

This is one of my favorite podcasts-- heartfelt and real. I love that I can listen to one story at a time (or twelve in a row).
SpecialKCereal via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/03/16
I love the Stoop. If you ever get a chance to see a live show in Baltimore, please do! The podcast doesn’t do the live event justice, although it’s a close second :) Laura and Jessica are brilliant and hilarious, and they find these people who have amazing stories. I don’t know how they do it :)
brksavage via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/02/16
(Mostly) Great, short, true stories. Some funny, some emotionally laden, some bizarre, but just about all are entertaining.
-'- nickname-'- via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/01/14
I really wanted to stay connected to the streets of my home town since I moved away. And some are really heartfelt, interesting and unique. But a good bit are so poorly designed, narcissistic and completely uninteresting. And I get that's almost the point. Life is mostly mundane and...Read full review »

if you like storytelling podcasts such as the moth, then you will love this too!

The Stoop stories cover the spectrum and are favorite event at CenterStage in Baltimore. Fun, funny, sad, wistful, outrageous--it's all here.Read full review »

This podcast is loaded with great, engaging stories. I cant stop listening.
BBaho via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/17/12
I have listen to all 301 stories thus far.This podcast needs to come with its own 12 step recovery program.Because i am telling you 3001 is NOT enough. Step One: I accept i have no power over Stoop.
slowjoh via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 12/30/10
I discovered this podcast on stitcher app. for iPhone, and just LOVE it! I am so excited to find it at iTunes, the archives should keep me busy while I wait for the new episodes. I like how it's presented in short ( @10-15 min ) episodes, one storyteller per episode. It is easy to fit in a...Read full review »

Similar to The Moth. Great true stories told by the people who have experienced them. There is a theme for the night, each story released separately for download. Thanks for your hardwork producing this podcast. Awesome listens!
