Some stories are meant to be told after dark.

Welcome to Ashley After Dark, an immersive storytelling experience where mystery, suspense, psychological twists, and unexpected revelations come to life.

Written and narrated by storyteller Ashley Van-De-Cruize Lampkin, each original story invites you into a world of unforgettable characters, buried secrets, complicated relationships, and moments that will leave you questioning everything you thought you knew.

With cinematic narration, atmospheric sound design, and emotionally compelling storytelling, these aren’t just stories you listen to. They’re stories you experience.

So dim the lights, settle in, and let your imagination take over.

Because the best stories don’t always end when the lights go out.

“Tell me about your mama's kitchen.” That’s the simple request which begins each episode of this Audible Original podcast from acclaimed journalist Michele Norris (NPR’s All Things Considered, The Washington Post) and Acast Productions.

Every week, hear guests like Michelle Obama, Conan O'Brien, Ina Garten, José Andrés, John Legend, and more explore the complexities of family life and how their earliest culinary experiences helped shape their personal and professional lives—and of course, each guest brings a recipe for a favorite dish from their youth so you can taste a bit of their story.

With a delicious buffet of actors, authors, chefs, musicians, and more, the rich conversations that flow from that simple, initial prompt reveal the histories, memories, and cultures that emerge from the kitchen—the heart of the home—where we are nourished physically and spiritually. Your Mama’s Kitchen is a podcast about cuisine and culture, ingredients and identities, and the meals and memories that make us who we are.

The show’s closing song is 504 by The Soul Rebels.

We’re deep into the sourdough community, and we want to bring more of those conversations to the table. Mostly, we just really love talking about bread.
