StoryTown is stepping into the kitchen and jumping right back out with “Kitchen Disasters and Culinary Fails,” a new show full of hilarious tales about when the recipe doesn’t go as planned. We’ve got stories about a transplant from Turkey’s first trip to an American grocery store, tales of biscuits so hard they bounced, and potatoes so overdone they turned into a source of entertainment for campers! Joining the Radio Show this month is Ryan Budds of Trivia with Budds. He’ll be giving the evening a gameshow atmosphere, complete with prizes for correctly answered trivia questions. Also joining the cast this month is storyteller Lynette “Lyn” Ford and the Jimmie D. Band. The Jimmie D. Band always get the audience up and dancing with their rock and blues mix.
