In this episode, we bring you three stories about first times. But these three storytellers share more than just the courage to talk about sex onstage; all three are also standup comedians. Stick around after the stories as they share their perspectives on storytelling through the lens of comedy.

Graham Campbell was born and raised in NYC where he spent 5 years as a cop with the NYPD. He's been telling with Story District for over 3 years, and has been lucky enough to make Top Shelf twice. He loves story telling because it's funny, raw and totally honest. He believes Pretzel Combos are superior to Cracker Combos and ketchup on a hot dog is a national disgrace.

Cody is a speechwriter from Cincinnati. He is the youngest of six children and spends his free time doing stand-up comedy and crying over his beloved Cincinnati Bengals.
