StoryCorps COLUMBUS brings you interviews from central Ohioans discussing some of the most important moments of their lives.
StoryCorps’ mission is to preserve and share humanity’s stories in order to build connections between people and create a more just and compassionate world. In the summer of 2019, StoryCorps partnered with WOSU Public Media to record dozens of stories in Columbus.
Now, StoryCorps COLUMBUS delivers a collection of those stories through a podcast and 89.7 NPR News.
