Alix Kendall sits down with Norah Shapiro, whose award-winning documentary, “Magic and Monsters,” follows survivors who broke their silence about the decades long sexual abuse cycle, and coverup at America’s preeminent Children’s Theater.

Shapiro reveals the emotional and legal battle faced by former child actors and students of the Children’s Theater School in Minneapolis. The dedication of the survivors to make the institution accountable made news headlines for months. 

This is the first time Alix publicly reveals her personal, and integral part in how the CTC story unfolded. The interview is unusual since Alix is a former CTC student , and former News Anchor and Reporter who initially tipped off the investigator,  creating a divide in the CTC community. 

MAGIC & MONSTERS illuminates a path toward institutional courage, and offers hope for all survivors seeking justice and reconciliation.

It’s the “Best of” episode of “Life Unscripted”. Alix looks back at 2025 and highlights four episodes. She begins with her debut podcast in June, where she interviews Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey. The episode was recorded BEFORE the ICE raids in Minneapolis, but the subject was raised in their conversation. You’ll hear what Mayor Frey thought about the potential of Federal agents coming into the city months before it made headlines.

The second guest in this “Best of” podcast is comedian and co-creator of The Daily Show, Lizz Winstead. The always funny and irreverent Lizz shares why she embodied a man to break into the serious business of writing for comedy.

Flight attendant and author Heather Poole is 3rd in the “Best of” lineup. Her insider memoir, “Cruising Attitude: Tales of Crashpads, Crew Drama, and Crazy Passengers at 35,000 feet”, spills the tea on antics in the air and some galley gossip. 

The episode wraps up with highlights from “Courtney is a Badass”. There are many reasons Courtney earned that title. You’ll hear how she handled a life changing accident and turned it into a mission to help amputees, including taking on Insurance Companies in Minnesota, and winning! She also became a Paralympic snowboarder after losing her leg. Courtney is also a reporter, and former colleague of Alix. They dish!

These are just the highlights, so tune into all the episodes! If you’re new to “Life Unscripted with ALIX KENDALL” this is a nice appetizer for all of you podcast connoisseurs/ junkies!

In this episode of Life Unscripted,” Alix Kendall dives into the topic of homelessness, in a place not often discussed, the Suburbs. We learn the circumstances that often lead to people experiencing homelessness. Alix talks with Colleena Carlisle, the Executive Director of Dakota Woodlands, a homeless shelter in Eagan Minnesota, just outside of the Twin Cities.

In this episode of “Life Unscripted: Finding the Funny in the Fu*ked Up World,” Comedian Lizz Winstead doesn’t avoid controversial topics like most comedians, and being cancelled goes both ways. Alix Kendall has a laugh, and the two dissect how Networks have influenced the entertainment world, and how censoring freedom of speech is backfiring at a time when people need comedic relief. The interview was taped the day of the announcement that Jimmy Kimmel was being taken off the air, but after public backlash, Kimmel was reinstated, (with the exception of Sinclair and Nexstar Media affiliates) and the controversy is ongoing as of the publication of this podcast. Lizz Winstead also shares her early days as co-creator of “The Daily Show,” and her activism for reproductive rights. Her nonprofit, Abortion Access Front https://www.aafront.org/ uses humor and education to fight against anti-abortion forces nationwide. Lizz is also the co-host of “Feminist Buzzkills Podcast,” https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/feminist-buzzkills/id1575776538
