I'm back in the studio again. I enjoyed doing the last two episodes on location, and I now realize I need some better equipment! I just got a camcorder for a graduation present, and I intend to start doing some video podcasts. Stay subscribed for more. My review of the production of Closer at Saginaw Valley State University. The Saginaw News published a review of the play that includes quotes very similar to my comments in the Episode 68 interview. Do I have a loyal listener at The Saginaw News, or do great minds just think alike? Read, listen, and judge for yourself...

My first interview episode! I sit down with Mathew (yes, there is only one "t") Easterwood, a senior theatre student at Saginaw Valley State University. Mat is directing a production of the stage play "Closer," which was the basis for the movie of the same name. I also talk with three of the cast members Scott Young (Dan), Molly Espinoza (Anna), and Kate Fisher (Alice) about the play and the process of breathing life into their characters. The play opens May 22, 2007 at the Black Box Theatre in Curtiss Hall on the campus of Saginaw Valley State University. Tickets can be purchased by visiting or calling the box office at (989)964-4261. Many thanks to Mat, Scott, Molly, and Kate for taking the time to do the interview!

I apologize for the late posting. My two jobs are keeping me super busy, and the production schedule may be erratic for a while. I appreciate everybody's patience. Imus is unemployed.
