Stargazing in the Woods

28 Sep 2026 · 32 min · S18 E26

Our story tonight is called Stargazing in the Woods, and it’s a story about a few days away from everything and at the same time closer to everything. It’s also about flat stones for skipping, an old blanket spread under the night sky, and a realigned perspective to take home after the embers die.

We give to a different charity each week and this week we are giving the Detroit Creativity Project, bringing free improv programs to schools and community centers to build confidence, collaboration, and the social skills that students use daily in other classes, at work, and in life.
