What a pleasant surprise this guest was. I  never knew of improv as a tool for regular people. I am grateful to actor, coach, and improv expert, Meridith Grundei, for speaking to us a few years back. Please enjoy this re-release.

This is probably my favorite Eager To Know episode. George’s emotional storytelling really resonates with me. Listening to this again makes me grateful I started this podcast and captured this conversation. The Hoffheimer gallery in Chicago represents George.

It’s one of my favorite Eager To Know episodes, maybe because the guest is a longtime friend. We speak about our childhood experiences and how they shaped our view of the world. It was such an excellent discussion.
