Improv partners Kelly Buttermore & Justin Peters ("From Justin to Kelly," Countdown Theater) come by to discuss the importance of owning your own work, how they intentionally push back against sexist expectations, what it means to work together "full time," and their friends in Wisconsin. A discussion of the film "Free Willy" brings us down an interesting path.
