This American Life: Finding humanity in the everyday. Ira Glass, the creator and host of This American Life podcast, could be described as the godfather of all podcasts, kickstarting the field in 1995. Glass started off on the radio, but tailored his show when the internet made on-demand audio possible. Glass always had a knack and a passion for one thing: Storytelling. Across almost 700 episodes, he tells stories to amaze, stories to drift by you on your morning commute, stories that come from as little as a soup can and as big as a cloned bull.
