    Ron Berry, founder of the Fusebox Festival

    I've known Ron Berry since high school and the two of us have essentially never grown up. He created an arts festival that just completed it's 19th year and I've been inspired by his creative career for practically my entire life. Check out the Fusebox Festival at https://fuseboxfestival.com/ And please consider pledging to support my solo show in Edinburgh this year at http://chrisgrace.com/scarlett

    Bo Shuff is the executive director of DC Vote and a longtime friend of mine.

    This whole episode is a ramble

    It's a special guest-less episode with a full ramble and catchup on Chris's projects and mindset! Hope you're having a good day. "When you feel that you are a lonely, put-upon, isolated little stranger confronting all this, you are under the influence of an illusory feeling, because the truth is quite the reverse. You are the whole works, all that there is, and always was, and always has been, and always will be." -- Alan Watts

    Benji Cooksey became the boss

    Benji Cooksey hadn't been a cast member at ComedySportz for that long before he somehow ended up being one of the owners. Since then he has steered the theater through the rough waters of the pandemic and lockdown, and is now combining his passion for improv and entrepreneurship with his desire to travel the world. We talk about all that and his favorite experiences from a recent trip to Japan. For information about Chris's standup show in Houston, go to the CSz website: https://cszhouston.vbotickets.com/event/Chris_Grace_Tim_Murray/92353

    Brian Gendron has a special set of skills

    Brian Gendron is such an all-around effective competent person that I put "fitness" as a tag on this episode. He's the founder of Riot Comedy in Houston and I just got back from the Riot Comedy Festival. Find out how I did in the National Comedy Contest finals! Also we talk a lot about what makes a good host, what it's like to go from a corporate job to running a comedy festival, and who you ask when you want to buy a 30-foot tall inflated astronaut balloon.

    Heather Pasternak is a comedy writing machine

    Heather Pasternak is a great friend of mine and truly feels like a teammate in the world of standup comedy. She's performed on Colbert and headlines around the country. She's one of the most productive people I know and one day I hope to grow up to be just like her! As always you can email the show at podcast@chrisgrace.com, and join the community at http://club.chrisgrace.com. Here's a great quote I found in, of all places, the Shopify website: "Women challenge the status quo because we are never it.” — Cindy Gallop Have a great day!

    Amber Petty will help you get paid to write

    Amber Petty is out there teaching people how to write more, and get paid to write. Seriously! She and I have been friends for a long time and her class regularly produces success stories of people who have found a way to become professional writers. We talk about what it's like starting a small business, and how it feels to make the mental flip to give ourselves permission to market and publicize the things we create.
