Storytelling Podcast Pick: Kind World
We’ve chosen to highlight Kind World, a WBUR show that beautifully combines compassion with storytelling. Through stories big and small, Kind World explores the effect one act can have on a life, to better understand each other and ourselves.
Kind World’s episodes are short (5-10 minutes), and involve accounts of how people’s lives have been changed by someone else. The unexpected friendship between a 4-year old girl and an elderly, recently widowed man in the throes of grief. A tattoo artist who covers up people’s violent, gang-related, racist tattoos for free.
These stories put you into others’ shoes, work your empathy muscles, and leave you feeling more hopeful and connected. Who couldn’t use a bit more of that?
