Record their
stories
before it’s too late.
A real story guide calls your parents every week, by phone or in the app, for an actual conversation. The family gets the podcast.
This is what an episode sounds like.
Ninety seconds from Margaret, 78. No script, no actors — a weekly call edited into a clip the family keeps.
Three steps.
The stories follow.
Step 01You invite them.
Tell us their name, their number, and whether they use a smartphone or not. Takes less than a minute.
You do this once.
Step 02We call them.
Weekly, at a time they pick. By phone or in the app. An actual conversation, not a list of prompts. 6 to 10 minutes.
They pick the schedule on the first call.
Step 03The family listens.
A short moment drops in your feed after every call. A produced episode every week. Listen in the app or as a private podcast.
Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or A Life Story.
“My father wasn’t a talker. Now I have an hour with him every Sunday — stories he’d never told us.”David, about his father Walter
Every family member has the app.
Everyone asks questions.
New moments drop in your feed the minute they hang up. React, send follow-up questions for the next call, and watch your family's curiosity shape next week's session.
“The night your grandfather proposed”
Tell Margaret what
you want to know.
What did you and Grandpa fight about in the first year?
What did you pack when you left Michigan?
Did you ever see Dad cry?
What was the first song you danced to together?
Every question is credited to whoever asked it.
One produced episode,
every Sunday.
Lightly edited from the week’s call. Available as a private podcast in Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or the A Life Story app.
Some stories never get written down.
This is the simplest way to keep them.
Tell us who
to call.
Free first interview. We’ll call them at the time you pick. They can hang up any time. No card needed.
