We Feature a License Plate News and a Different Vanity License Plate Owner Each Episode. We Share the Story Behind Their Vanity Plate and then See Where the Road Takes Us. Meet the People, Dogs and Cars in this Very Special Collection.
It's a New Spin on the Human Interest Story.

This week we meet Sheldon Neal from Irvine, CA. His vanity plate story was featured in an LA Times article, chosen from thousands of entries. He’s a retired IT Project Manager who fills his time now with working on cars, lawn bowling and exploring the beautiful areas of the California coast. Sheldon grew up on a farm and shares some fascinating information about how farming has changed since his childhood. He also shares how a physical trait played a role in his self-worth growing up and led him to realizing one important thing we all share. This gave him self-confidence and I think you will agree, a good life. Enjoy this episode and want to buy me a cup of coffee? https://www.buymeacoffee.com/pl8story

join us weekly for a new vanity license plate owner featured each week.

Why did the choose it, what does it mean and what is the real story behind it.

I love this podcast. Each episode is unique and fun! Trista is an expert interviewer and excels at knowing what to ask and how to ask it. I’ve enjoyed hearing all the unique stories behind the featured plates. I look forward to hearing more episodes for years to come!!

Great concept! Well executed.

With podcasts about anything and everything, it’s still hard to find one that breaks the stereotypical format. PL8STORY does just that! And does it well, with interesting stories of everyday individual with incredible insight to share about their passions.

What Our Guests are Saying



Thank you for putting this together! I've only shared it with immediate family to this point, but plan to share with a larger audience soon. Everyone who has watched it liked it a lot. They all keep mentioning what a great interviewer you are. I keep telling them it takes a great interviewee to make the interviewer look good, but they aren't buying it yet. I'll keep trying. Thank you again, on the list of best things I've ever done.

It being Pride month made this interview THAT much more special! It flowed very well and the time went by quickly! You do a great (job) as your voice is very inviting and warm.

This is so much fun! I’d forgotten how lively the whole evening was, and you’re a master surgeon to get this down to half (or less) its original time....Thank you again!

From our first conversation on, Trista made me feel comfortable and her interest in my story was so genuine, even though it fell outside what she usually does. She goes in well prepped so you know exactly what to expect. Recording with Trista is a totally positive experience!
