Bus Driving With A Stutter Is Not What You Think

9/23/2022 • 43 min

Dustin Wells drives the 5 Fulton bus route in San Francisco. He didn’t identify with being a stutterer until he heard about Proud Stutter on his local NPR station. The first part of the episode is Maya interviewing Dustin while riding on his bus route. The second part is a sit-down interview with Dustin. Our rotating co-host is Christin Evans, an advocate for San Francisco’s unhoused residents and the owner of Booksmith, an independent bookstore in San Francisco. This episode celebrates SF Transit Month and is releasing ahead of an in-person event Proud Stutter is putting on with Booksmith SF called “Stuttering Stories Across San Francisco.” I want to thank Quinn Greenhaus for helping edit this episode. Stuttering Awareness Month Campaign To Launch! Proud Stutter is partnering with Facetronomy on a Stuttering Awareness Month campaign. It includes raffle prizes and pre-released exclusive episodes! Another thing we are doing to kick things off in October is a live stream with women who stutter Nina G and Lara Gabrielle. Catch us on Instagram at 10am pacific!
