Will You Be My Friend‪?‬ Christin Sawyer Davis

Ian Garrett is an Assistant Professor of Sustainability & Design and Theatre Production & Administration at York University in Toronto, Canada. He is super smart. He is super informed. He is a super hard worker. And he's funny. We talk about how he ended up working in production, despite a childhood attempting to avoid it, and about what sustainability in the arts means. Oh, and about HOW IMPORTANT THE ARTS ARE TO HEALTHY SOCIETIES! And about parenthood. It's great. Give it a listen. Recorded on 6/9/16.

Simon Flory is a musician based in Austin, TX. We talk about his childhood in rural Indiana, what it's like making a living as a musician, and he teaches me things about Garth Brooks, Shel Silverstein, and the Half Barbaric Twang (my new favorite combination of words). Recorded on 4/18/16.
