Seeking Story Submissions
TALKEETNA, WE WANT YOUR STORIES!
We’re creating a brand new show celebrating the strange, hilarious, heartfelt, and wildly Alaskan moments that only happen here. And we want YOUR true(ish) stories, the ones you tell at the Fairview, on the river, in the Hangar, or around a late-night campfire.
WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR
– “Only in Alaska” incidents
– Bar tales, trail tales, river tales, winter tales
– Local legends and personal misadventures
– Heartwarming, bizarre, chaotic, or just plain Talkeetna
No need to write a script — just tell the story in your own words.
