raconteur

French for 'story teller,' coming from the French verb 'raconter' meaning 'to tell' or 'to recount.' Also, for this reason, the name of a new rock band, the Raconteurs. (They're really good.)

The Raconteurs claim to be raconteurs on their new album, 'Broken Boy Soldiers.'

Alex is such a craponteur. He went into this really detailed retelling of this joke, and by the time he got to the punchline... everyone had left the room.

Raconturd

A shit talker of the highest order. One to be respected for the amount of bullshit that they can reel off effortlessly in any given situation.

I was watching Fox news this morning, man that Hannity is a raconturd.
