BitterSweet Monthly
A podcast about the mundane and the beautiful. An attempt to capture just a few of the ordinary, every day.

We believe the ordinary houses the extraordinary. Ordinary Story is brought to you BitterSweet and produced by Angela Wu, Carolina Soto, Obi Okolo, Robert Winship, and Kate Schmidgall. Sound design, mixing, and editing by Robert Winship. https://bittersweetmonthly.com/series/ordinary-story
