Episode Synopsis

Voices from Lincoln Street: An Experiment in Reverse Tourism (abridged version)
There’s been a cruise boom in Sitka Alaska, with more people coming to the island community than ever before. To feel a bit more connection to the people filling the town, Sitka Tells Tales set up on the street to talk with tourists about where they’d take a visitor in their home communities and to ask for stories of turning points and things they don’t always share. It's an experiment, it's audio therapy, and it's funny and surprising in places.
