Background

Epiphanies. Those momentary, unexpected, unexplainable flashes of revelation or insight. Inspiration blooming. Perspective changing. World shifting. Life changing.

For this episode we asked writers and voice actors here in America's Pacific Northwest to consider epiphanies addressing the essential question of humankind: "Who Am I?", "Where Am I Going?", "So What?", and "Why?"

Their responses were insightful. And sometimes disturbing with their unexpected twists. Hence, our episode title: "Twisted Epiphanies."

It's a privilege to feature these radio stories. Thanks to their writers and voice actors.
