Listening Is an Act of Love: A StoryCorps Special

Season 26 Episode 14

Listening Is an Act of Love features six stories from 10 years of the innovative oral history project. Each story reflects StoryCorps founder Dave Isay's fundamental belief: "We can learn so much about the people all around us –even about the people we already know – just by taking the time to have a conversation."
