Workplace safety training.
Anti-bullying training.
Mindfulness training.
The list goes on and on….
Can someone tell me why in order to work in the theatre you need more training than a pediatric neurosurgeon? Why I’ve spoken to more nameless HR representatives than I have actors? Why I’m developing carpal tunnel syndrome from clicking through corporate sensitivity awareness platforms? Let’s talk about why these mind-numbing trainings are actually making the workplace worse in our latest episode:

Enlightening with a Side of Snarky
I look forward to each episode. Nate is brilliant and is not afraid of offending people by raising controversial topics. In a day and age where everyone toes the line (lest they get cancelled), his work may shock some people, but listen deeply, and you’ll be laughing and learning, too. Been following his career since CotW
The best podcast... ever!!!
I love this podcast so much. I literally get so excited when a new episode comes. I can’t get enough of the grateful status of the week!! I wish Nate did more of them. Although I worry Nate will read something stupid I wrote. It would be an honor!
But seriously, Nate is Witty, Smart, and Funny!!! This is such an amazing podcast for the theater fan or performer. I can’t say enough great things about it. Great job Nate!! I’m excited to hear more!! ❤️
Transphobic
Not going to support this podcast any longer after the multiple transphobic comments in the January 2020 episode. Disgusting.
I have listened to this podcast for a couple years so I know it’s problematic for many, many other reasons - but the openly transphobic opinions are the straw that broke this camel’s back.
