Storyteller is the fifth studio album recorded by American singer and songwriter Carrie Underwood. It was released on October 23, 2015, through Sony Music Nashville. Following the release and success of her fourth studio album, Blown Away, Underwood began work on Storyteller in early 2014. However, she tentatively suspended most work on the album because of her pregnancy with her first child. In the midterm, Underwood released her first compilation record, Greatest Hits: Decade #1, on December 9, 2014 to much success. After the birth of her son, she took some additional time off before going back into the studio in early 2015 to finish working on the album.
Underwood drew inspiration for the title of the album from the storytelling aspect of country music, as well as her own songs. Storyteller has been described by Underwood as being more laid-back and more twangy as opposed to the her last studio album. Unlike her previous four albums, Underwood worked with multiple producers on Storyteller, including her longtime record producer Mark Bright, as well as Zach Crowell and Jay Joyce.

Chaser is a Border Collie dog with the largest tested memory of any non-human animal. She can identify 1,022 toys by their name and retrieve them. She was taught by retired Wofford College professor and psychologist John Pilley, with the formal research published.
Chaser knows over a thousand names of items, more than any other animal of any species except humans. In addition to common nouns like house, ball and tree, she has memorized the names of more than one thousand toys and can retrieve any of them on command. Based on that learning, she and her owner and trainer, retired psychologist John Pilley, have moved on to further impressive feats, demonstrating her ability to understand sentences with multiple elements of grammar and to learn new behaviors by imitation.
Chaser is a first-person shooter action video game developed by Cauldron. The game is built on the CloakNT 3D engine. Unlike many contemporary science fiction first-person shooters like Halo: Combat Evolved, Pariah, WarPath, and Unreal Tournament 2004, Chaser's weapons fire modern day projectiles.
It was re-released on Steam and GOG.com in 2011.
The story of the game begins in the year 2044 on Mars with the UN establishing MARSCORP (Martian Security and Economics Committee) under the leadership of Samuel Longwood. In the years that follow, the UN gradually loses control of MARSCORP, mainly due to the non-transparent license policy of its director. Samuel Longwood uses his autonomous status to create vassal relations between the corporations and MARSCORP. The strong power position of MARSCORP is supported by the companies and thus they acquire additional rights and licenses. Samuel Longwood and his consortium become extremely wealthy from this arrangement. However, dissenting voices in MARSCORP begin to challenge Samuel Longwood's authoritarian policy. They demand the dismissal of Samuel Longwood as director and a complete redistribution of the mining rights.
