13.02.16 • First Dates – a Spark Encore / Romantic Misadventures special
CONTENT WARNING: strong sex references. For all the single ladies and gentlemen out there, here’s our antidote to the mushiest time of year: four stories of terrible first dates, courtesy of the wonderful night we hosted recently with Romantic Misadventures. Charley Harrison is joined by Kit Lovelace to regale you with horrific tales of finding love or a one night stand. Thanks to Nell, Brie, and Duncan for sharing their stories, as well as the fantastic audience at the Exmouth Market Theatre. Romantic Misadventures is a monthly night in Dalston, east London, which you should really check out. Details here: romanticmisadventure.com Spark – True Stories is produced by Matt Hill for Rethink Audio, with an incredible bunch of volunteers at Spark nights across the UK.

We don’t make a habit of bringing you stories from the same people, but on this occasion we’ve made an exception: this is Kirby (who we featured last year) on her most recent trip to support a refugee camp on the Greek island of Leros.
We’ll be hosting a night of stories from those connected to the refugee crisis in the Middle East and Europe on the 25th February, with stories from both aid workers and refugees now living in London. Please join us – all proceeds to two refugee charities – full details at stories.co.uk.

20.01.16 • Resolutions – TJ & Richard
Ever made a promise you couldn’t keep? The turning of the calendar invites refreshed perspectives and hopeful dreams; it calls for something different and the anticipation of a new beginning. But how do we make sure we keep the promises to ourselves we swore to honor, and what can we expect from this turning of time?
On today’s podcast, we present two stories from our open mic in Hackney, where this month we told tales of ‘Resolutions.’
