Where:<\/strong> Songbirds Guitar Museum North Stage, 35 Station St. Chattanooga<\/p>\n

Information:<\/strong> wutc.org or storycorps.org<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

Want to hear the stories of your Chattanooga neighbors? About their marriages? Their jobs? Their ups and downs?<\/p>\n

In other words, their lives?<\/p>\n

On Thursday, April 18, you\u2019ve got your chance.<\/p>\n

StoryCorps, the National Public Radio show that records 40-minute conversations between two people on any subject they choose, has been in Chattanooga for the past few weeks. The show\u2019s bright’n’shiny Airstream trailer has been sitting at Chattanooga\u2019s Miller Park, partnering with WUTC-FM 88.1, Chattanooga\u2019s NPR station, to collect 125 interviews.<\/p>\n

At a Listening Party on Thursday, snippets of some of the Chattanooga conversations will be played in Songbirds Guitar Museum, located next to the Chattanooga Choo Choo. Doors open at 5 p.m.; the event begins at 6 p.m. and runs until 7:30 p.m. There will be StoryCorps\u00a0interactive displays and refreshments from a cash bar.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s free to attend, but you must register at wutc.org.<\/p>\n

Some of the full conversations recorded in Chattanooga will be edited into four-minute segments and appear on WUTC during Morning Edition,<\/em>\u00a0which airs from 6-9 a.m. weekdays, and\u00a0All Things Considered,<\/em>\u00a0which runs weekdays from 4-7 p.m. The station also will use the conversations to create special programming.<\/p>\n
