What It's Like

"What It's Like" is a WJCT Public Media podcast where people share just that: What it's like to go through life-changing experiences. We're starting with some of the most compelling conversations the national story-archiving nonprofit StoryCorps recorded in Jacksonville and then diving deeper into the stories behind those conversations. Some people are still figuring things out; others have come out the other side. All of them share what it's like.
