Grant Adams (aka "GA") is the fifth Shawnee Mission West Viking to join us on the podcast. Today we talk school, sports, and what it was like for our guest to grow up a Raiders fan.

We wrap up our 2024 KC Fringe experience with this review, including a review of one of the other Fringe shows doing an improv of us. FringeProv is the property of Bryan Colley at jupiterkansas.com

Elizabeth Young-Collins has a show in 2024 KC Fringe - "A History Tour Hijacked" - and was kind enough to ask us to be on the podcast to talk about her show, the life experiences behind it, and her thoughts on Kansas City as a first-time visitor.

In the "Fringe Adjacent" portion of our Fringe program, Mike sits down with the team behind the Fringe play Bi Spy - Chris Cole (actor/director), Jen Raines (actor/co-writer) and Bob Raines (actor/Jen's father) join us to talk about their production.

Our 2024 KC Fringe program wraps up with local entrepreneur and concerned Palestinian Samantha Salem.
