We crawl for so many things in the area. What's one more? Though this isn't a tasty beverage, but inviting area community theater.

Amber Wilkes, who started up the Curtain Crawl under her project Go See A Show Toledo, is here to talk all about this fun 'competition.' 

First, what to say Saturday, and, yes, please change your mind!

Sara Eiden from the Maumee Indoor and Charles Wetzel from FilmToledo visit to preview this weekend's Maumee Film Festival.

Within that, why is the Indoor's popcorn SO good? Why has the Indoor changed some of what they're showing? How are things at new space FilmToledo has downtown in a kind of Creative's Corner. 

First, I'm just the right age to be giving this so much of my money.

After some time in Los Angeles, Grand Rapids' Caly Bevier is back home. You may remember her from some past show visits (and past shows) and from her first touch of fame, as a cancer survivor getting the Golden Buzzer on AGT.

Before we catch up with Caly, I hope IT is the the fix for all the current questions people have about it. Technologies often are.

It's been too long since I've had my friend Laura Simmons-Wark from Humane Ohio in for a visit. She's got the culmination of their fun Pints for Paws event coming up to invite you to, but first, she can share the story of how we became friends and how she got me my second dog, who is here. And so is Nessie!

Old school. No video. Just audio here you and me!

It's terribly deflating that it's likely the Blade will close up shop.

WMU should just say fuck it, we won, and let others decide on their own what to do with that

First, a predictable meltdown and the Titanic is just fine!

We've modified how we're doing Community Baby Shower - the brainchild of Alex, who's here(!) - and we're hoping after you listen to this episode, you'll feel so inclined to donate a few, or a lot of items!

BABY SHOWER INFO!

First, the Monnette's AI discourse.

A new guest to the podcast, and a topic we've certainly never discussed - skateboarding! I've been familiar with Nick's exceptional videography and photography for a very long time. Great to have him in to talk about this event, where the photos will be on skateboards! And what's skateboard culture like in Toledo?

Monroe Comic Con that is! A preview of it with the guy who started it up, with the help of many friends and family, Gary Pillette. Very excited and thankful he lets me do my show there during preview night on September 11th, and I once again get to bring some stuff to sell.

First up, what so many have been talking about. I'm for them. And I'm for HARSH punishment for their misuse.

My dear friend Dr. Andrea Mata from Brightspot Families returns to share new on a virtual parent project she's working on. 

Also...

Riding in carts.

Past third spaces haven't really gone away.

The largest demo that's coming to her and her team for help.

And an all around hearty mental health discussion.
