Isabella MartinHOST
It's only like five minutes where people are able to give their stories.

Go for it.
Mariel GruszkoHOST
So in 2011, I worked for StoryCorps, which is an oral history nonprofit.
Mariel GruszkoHOST
And...
Mariel GruszkoHOST
StoryCorps was involved in collecting oral histories about various victims of 9-11.
Mariel GruszkoHOST
So we had this recording booth in Foley Square, so in lower Manhattan, very close to Wall Street, very close to the World Trade Center, where where people could make appointments with us to come in and conduct oral history interviews, remembering their loved ones who had been killed, whether those were family members, friends, coworkers.
Mariel GruszkoHOST
And the odd thing about the time period where I first began doing these oral history interviews is that it was also right around the time that Occupy Wall Street began.

Safwat SaleemGUEST
I mean, he still scares me, even though like I'm like in my mid forties.
Safwat SaleemGUEST
And so I still want to be like, I want to ask you some questions, like the example that you shared about StoryCorps, like having that kind of a conversation.
