Listen to true stories or share your own at The Moth's open-mic storytelling competition sponsored by BPR.

September’s theme: "Nine to Five"

Prepare a five-minute story about being on the clock. First jobs and corporate climbing. Dream gigs, survival works, side hustles. Water cooler gossip, awkward HR meetings. Burning the midnight oil or goofing off on the company dime. Passion projects that fuel you or counting the minutes until happy hour. Is it your calling? Or just a paycheck? Punch in. Punch out. Repeat. What a way to make a livin’! 

  • When: Thursday, September 17 | Doors at 6:30 p.m., show at 7:30 p.m.
  • Where: The Grey Eagle in Asheville
  • Tickets: $17 via The Grey Eagle starting August 28
