The End of The Road
Season 3 – Episode 5
Moments In Life
January 2, 2023
This podcast series features handpicked stories from the 2022 Storytelling Festival in Kennicott-McCarthy. The Wrangell Mountains Center hosted 3 days of grassroots storytelling that summer, featuring local and visiting storytellers. In this series we explore some of the magic of that in-person event.
Episode 5 is our last episode of the season in this storytelling series and features two stories told at the West Side venue. Madz shares a poignant, vulnerable story about a friend, and Nik Merlino our host and sponsor for the West Side event - owner of McCarthy River Tours & Outfitters and The Glacier View Campgound - tells a story about a sitcom-like moment in life with Alaska Senator Lisa Murkowski.
In this Episode
Madz tells an intimate, moving story about her friend, and the judges for the competition selected her story as the winner at the West Side venue.
West Side host, sponsor and business owner Nik Merlino tells a humorous story about meeting Alaska Senator Lisa Murkowski that didn’t quite go as planned.
