Link to the Show / Show NotesWhen professional storyteller Joel ben Izzy discovered after waking up from thyroid cancer surgery that he had lost his voice, he felt himself falling head long into a story as odd as any he had ever told. His life, his livelihood, his personal identity all seemed open to interpretation and threatened by a meaningless, incomprehensible twist of fate.
Weaving together stories and fables with the events of his own life, ben Izzy takes listeners on a surprisingly humorous and deeply moving journey into the heart of what it means to live and to be happy.
