Storytelling: John Bucher Firmly Believes That We Can Improve Our Narrative

Even if they gave PhDs out for passion instead of knowledge, John Bucher would probably still have one. Enthusiasm, curiosity and insight are all on full display in the first episode in our Storytelling miniseries. We start this series heady asking the biggest story question of all time - why do we need stories anyway? Surely it can’t be a coincidence that every society, no matter how remote from the rest of the world has stories any more than it can be coincidence that so many of these stories have overlapping themes, plots and structures. But, we don’t stop there with the ephemeral puzzles.
