Job Overview
Do you enjoy history, mystery, and making people laugh? Can you tell a good story? Are you sometimes called the "spooky" one of your friend group? You're my people.
Ever wanted to stand on a haunted bus, tell the tales of long dead murderers, mischief makers, and Colorado's darker side? Or wanted to basically lowkey punk a bus full of people that there's the ghost of a long forgotten miner on the bus with them?
If so, we should probably talk.
