The Moth is a story-telling event that’s been taking place in New York (and now in several other cities) since the mid/late 1990s. It’s also a podcast and a radio show.

In this video comedian/actor Anthony Griffith tells one of the saddest and most gut-wrenching stories you will ever hear. Ever.

Don’t watch this at work.

Due to the strong interest in this January performance at The Moth, Griffith is turning this monologue into a one-man show. Follow Anthony Griffith on Twitter.
