Our Story

We believe the most precious gifts aren't things; they're the stories we share. Our mission is to help you preserve your cherished memories and turn them into unforgettable audio keepsakes that last a lifetime.

Have you ever wanted to give a gift that was truly, deeply personal? Something that went beyond a photograph or a printed mug and captured the very essence of a person or a memory?

That question is at the heart of why YourStoryCast exists, and the idea for it was born from a moment just like that.

How It All Started

It all started, as many good ideas do, from a friendly argument at work. I have a colleague who is a true character—one of those people with a uniquely witty personality and a dry sense of humour that always has us laughing.

During one of these debates, I found myself noting down his funny quirks. That's when the idea struck: what if I could capture what makes him, him, in a totally new way? It would be hilarious to create a podcast episode all about him, a sort of 'friendly roast' or a 'This Is Your Life' segment that he could listen to.

As a tinkerer and tech enthusiast, my mind immediately went to work. I started building a process to weave his story together, experimenting with AI voices to create a warm, conversational format. After some tinkering, the first-ever YourStoryCast was ready.

The Lightbulb Moment

The first person I played it for was my wife. I wasn't sure what she'd think, but after listening, she laughed and said, "Wow, that sounds great, my friends would love this. This is a real business idea, you know?"

What started as a fun, personal project suddenly felt much bigger. I realized that everyone has these stories—the inside jokes with best friends, the cherished memories of how a couple met, the words of gratitude for a mentor, the hilarious family anecdotes. These are the moments that define our relationships, and they deserve to be celebrated in a way that's as unique as they are.

YourStoryCast Today

And so, YourStoryCast was born. Today, we create personalized podcast gifts for birthdays, anniversaries, retirements, and those "I-have-no-idea-what-to-get-them" moments. We've made medical podcasts for doctors, friend memory lane stories full of inside jokes, and heartfelt tributes for grandparents. We've immortalized circus proposals, parenting mishaps, and 33-year love stories.

Every single one is different.
Every single one is theirs to keep forever.

What Makes YourStoryCast Different?

đź‘‚We Actually Listen

Give us bullet points about someone's life, and we'll find the thread—the funny bit, the touching moment, the thing that makes them them.

🎯We Frame It For The Person

Your sports-obsessed dad gets game-day commentary. Your doctor friend gets a medical podcast case study. Your romantic partner gets intimate storytelling. We match the podcast to their world, not ours.

✨We Care About The Details

Wrong song lyrics become family in-jokes. That circus date where he never let go of her hand becomes the thesis of a love story. We pay attention because these aren't just orders—they're people's actual lives.

What's Coming?

Right now, we're focused on personalized podcast gifts—making them better, faster, more magical.

Coming in 2026: A community platform where you can submit stories just for fun, listen to other people's tales, and engage with the YourStoryCast community. Think storytelling meets podcasting meets Reddit. But friendly.

For now: We're keeping it simple. One thing, done really well. Personalized podcast gifts that make people cry (happy tears).

Thank you for being a part of our story. Now, we'd be honoured to be a part of yours.

Warmly,

Evan
