This is the Moth Radio Hour.
I'm your host, Jay Allison.
Life is littered with obstacles.
Pretty much every day, if you're like me, some days I glide over them, other days I bang my shins pretty hard.
Today I'm gliding, but not expecting that to last.
Every once in a while, we're faced with a challenge that feels impossible, or at least highly improbable.
Maybe not as extreme as scaling the world's tallest building or jumping in between airplanes, looking at you, Tom Cruise, but ones that feel like our own personal mission improbable.
Our first storyteller is Gabby Rohn.
She takes on the notoriously futile task of cat training.
Here's Gabby to tell you all about it live at the mall.
That was Gabby Roan.
Gabby told this story at a Moth Grand Slam event in Detroit, where we partnered with public radio station WDET.
Gabby lives in Detroit and has simple loves, gardening, riding her bike, and drinking coffee.
