About the Podcast

stories of reddit.

Bite-sized stories of trust, betrayal and everyday decisions.

Stories of Reddit is a short-form storytelling podcast drawn from real, anonymous posts shared online. Each episode adapts a single story; personal moments, relationship tensions, moral dilemmas, or quiet confessions; told plainly and without commentary.

These are not reactions, debates, or judgement pieces.

They are first-person accounts of ordinary people trying to make sense of what happened to them.

The focus is not on spectacle, but on experience. On how people explain their lives when no one knows who they are.

Episodes are brief and self-contained. One story. One perspective. Left for the listener to consider.
