Damn! Today's guest is a very dear friend, George Orange (Fuller). We've known one another for well over 30 years and I've never met another person quite like him. He's an actor, a performer, choreographer, Circus instructor and a fully-accredited graduate of clown school. Seriously. He's lived abroad for more than 20 years, so we snagged him on a rare visit home. I love this man. Please listen and enjoy!
