Jay Stetzer, Storyteller

About

"Tales in Two Minutes" brings the popular radio sound byte to the podcasting arena. All stories come from the creative imagination of Jay Stetzer, a master storyteller, whose popular tales have been broadcast on radio since 1991. It's storytelling at it's best! Each entry brings you a personal story, a family story, a true story, a bold-faced lie, an urban folktale, a traditional folktale, a myth, a musing, a meditation, a bit of humor, some irony, and even a little schmaltz for good measure. Tune in and take a 2-minute break, whatever you're doing... it'll make your day! You can find me on the web at www.jaystetzer.com.
