Mike, once again a teenager, finds himself presented with new opportunities to use his adult experience at a make-out party. How far will he go to make his second time around a lot more fun? I callContinue reading “Kid Again Episode 4”

Legacy
What is the legacy you want to leave behind? Before my retirement, several people got together to throw me a surprise retirement party before the Saturday performance of my last show on campus. In attendance were students from my 17 years at the campus, representing a wide range of productions. Several of them had incredibleContinue reading “Legacy”
Bother Me? Not Tonight!
What was the last live performance you saw? The last live musical performance I saw was The Atlanta Rhythm Section (ARS). I really wanted to see them for two reasons. One, I like their songs, and back when I was an AM DJ, I played their songs frequently in rotation (because they were hits andContinue reading “Bother Me? Not Tonight!”
One Way? Yield!
What gives you direction in life? The title of this post comes from a joke I used to tell; someone asks me my sign, and I waggle my eyebrows and say flirtatiously: “Yield…” As for what gives me direction in life, it’s my artistic projects. Working on plays as a director, writing plays or films,Continue reading “One Way? Yield!”
Fears
This is the companion blog post to Audio Chimera Episode #68: “What Are YOU Afraid Of?” I thought I would mention my fear of heights here. When I was growing up I had a fear of heights. Going to a second floor balcony on a rickety wooden fire escape was okay, but once, at aContinue reading “Fears”
New Podcast Episodes Available
And now for your listening pleasure: three new Audio Chimera podcast episodes, #64-66. It seems odd to me that I had written blog posts about episodes I hadn’t recorded or released yet. When I did the posts on Lost Toys, I hadn’t even written the episode scripts. Previously I’d release the episode and eventually getContinue reading “New Podcast Episodes Available”
When I GrowUp…
When you were five, what did you want to be when you grew up? Today’s prompt asks about my career aspirations at age 5. To be honest, I have few recollections about being 5, much less what I desired for a career. So I’ll take a cue from politicians who want to answer a differentContinue reading “When I GrowUp…”
Audio Chimera Season 6!
I had some time to record the first three episodes of Season 6 of Audio Chimera: For these first three, I have returned to the scripted format that I used in past seasons. But, as luck would have it, I had an allergy attack earlier in the day. So if I don’t sound like I’mContinue reading “Audio Chimera Season 6!”
Me, Myself, and Aliens
Often, people have asked me: what is it with you and aliens? If you check out this webpage you might think I claim to have been abducted. This is totally untrue— I don’t think I was ever abducted by aliens. BUT! I love conspiracy theories…or at least I did until the whole QAnon nonsense triedContinue reading “Me, Myself, and Aliens”
Friendships #2
BFFs? I know a guy! In fact, five of them. I mention them in Audio Chimera Episode #61: the friend group that grew out of a theatre production. Early in my teaching career at Penn State Hazleton (1993 to be exact), I directed Joe Orton’s What the Butler Saw—with the production being an outgrowth ofContinue reading “Friendships #2”
