Every soccer fan has a match that they hold just a bit closer to their heart than the rest.

This is former professional soccer player, creator of The Association, soccer apparel company Bumpy Pitch, and Parc, Ben Hooper's.

The 2010 world cup run by the US Mens National Team was special, inspiring future kids all over the country like Matt Turner to swap their baseballs for soccer balls.

How does a movie get made? What's the next step when you finish your screenplay? What's the secret to getting your film into the festivals of your dreams?

If these questions are floating around your brain, this episode is for you.

My close personal friend, filmmaker Luis Fernado Puente, gives all the answers to your film questions... and yet the answers simply lead to more questions. But when you live a life full of art and expression, you chase the answers regardless.

Listen to Luis and I talk about his Sundance appearance, creating art from life, turning a short film into a feature, and how his obsession with alternative band Thrice influences his filmmaking even today.

Let's talk the nitty gritty of songwriting. Our fearless leader Brendon sits down with Marky Hladish of Felix Culpa to talk music, inspiration, and the hows and whys of their respective writing styles. Walk through Brendon and Marky's creative process with them and check out what kinds of songs they're currently workshopping.

Y'all mind if we preserve our personal family history via a podcast episode?

A very brief introduction to Kailey and her dad's origins and why people keep telling this story. Join Kailey and Isaac for a discussion on story telling, literature, and Les Miserables. We offer some insight on the sound design and stylistic choices we made while putting next week's episode of Your Story Sounds together.

We went to a Beeson show and all we got was this sick interview for you guys! Tune in for our conversation with indie artist Jane Beeson where we focus on light topics like storytelling, religious childhoods, gender roles, and eternity.

How do our own lives and experiences influence the stories we tell and how we interpret the stories of others? Are there Mormons in Philadelphia? How long is too long for that one song you've been writing in your notes app for three years? Through a blended audio experience featuring live music, concert ambience, and a one on one interview, Story Sounds is thrilled to share a story with you all about an artist finding ways to share herself and her story.
