Welcome to the inaugural episode of the PENCILTOWN podcast! In this introductory episode we will be exploring the PENCILTOWN mission statement, the very purpose behind the pod's existence, who it is designed for, the format of future episodes, as well as upcoming topics.

Hosts Nick Johnson, Jason Mehmel and Sho Uehara reveal their secret origins, highlighting the moments that developed their love of story and brought them to this point in their practice as storytellers. 

We wrap things up with our first PENCILTOWN SPOTLIGHT wherein we recommend some creative works that have been a huge inspiration to us, and serve as great examples of how to tell a story right.
