Episode Synopsis
EPISODE 11: Ash Allen
It’s Fall you all. This month we’re featuring stories that hit on good times that take various turns of fright!
How the heck did comedian, storyteller, and Southern gem Ash Allen’s romance-filled semester in Paris turn into a summer planning her own funeral… at just 21 years old? Find out how the matriarchy of her family teams up and works to solve her mysterious illness. Spoiler alert: she lives to tell the tale and we couldn’t be more thankful for that.
BACKFENCE Unhinged is a unique and delightful twist on the storytelling podcast where hosts Andrew and Frayn invite a storyteller on to share an unhinged true story. Then comes the second unhinged part – they dig in and ask questions to get into the behind-the-scenes dirt — finding intersections with some of their own personal anecdotes.host/show description
