A podcast for stutterers to leave messages which I play on my show. Radical idea, I know, but it's always great to meet (and hear) fellow stutterers. If you stutter, or just curious about stuttering, you may enjoy this show!

Where my stuttering comes from

Episode #281: This episode is recorded live from where my stuttering comes from!

My grandfather and his sisters stuttered so I like to refer to my father’s hometown in Molise, Italy as “where my stutter comes from” or “my stutter’s origin story”.

In this episode, I travel to my parent’s hometowns (only 2km apart) in Italy and share with you:

* How this was the first time in 21 long years that I have returned but this time, I didn’t hide my stuttering… and benefitted from doing so as per usual.

* A ridiculous avoidance tactic I used during a visit in the 1990s.

* My observations of a cousin’s daughter who awesomely owned her wheelchair like a boss.

* A little but of info about my parents’ home towns and a few travel stories.

* Why I highly recommend the Molise region as a travel destination.

* A funny incident I had with a member of the Swiss Guard in Rome while looking for the gym where Pope Leo XVI worked out when he was a cardinal.

* My tip for avoiding the long, long lineup to see St. Peter’s Basilica.

* A few more of my travel tips in Rome.

I also mention a livestream I did on Instagram showing you my father’s home town; part one where I climb up a mountain and part two where I climb down and show you the town.

Please note: I originally recorded this episode while walking around the countryside in my father’s home town in Molise and later while walking in Rome. However, to my disappointment, upon my return home to Canada, I discovered a lot of wind noise showed up in my recording and drowned out my voice. I tried various ways to reduce it, even resorting to using over-promising and under-delivering AI tools, but nothing worked. So I re-recorded it only to still find wind noise making its way into this episode! At least it’s minimal.
