I'm really glad Corey Rosen is coming back to share a story with In a Nutshell Storytelling, partly because Corey is a mystery to me.

He's so approachable, friendly, yet also someone who's been punched in the face by a stranger.

Seriously, though, if you've ever been to the Berkeley Moth, you've seen this guy in action. He's an excellent host who makes everyone feel like they belong on stage and ensures that every moment between storytellers feels meaningful and celebratory. His hosting style is relaxed and natural, but not superficial; he has humor and edge when needed, yet always guides the audience toward compassion and connection without pretension.

I watched Corey's face as strangers of all experience levels took the stage and shared their stories . . . he genuinely looked thrilled by each one, truly happy to listen and be part of it.

And yet, A STRANGER PUNCHED COREY ROSEN IN THE FACE!
