How The F#@% Do You Do That?

Greg is one of our country's finest actors of Shakespeare. He's also one of the most positive human beings I know. I find talking to him makes my days during the Strange Times a little better, and I wanted you to experience that too :-) He's been performing live audio plays with Chicago Radio Theatre during the Strange Times. A discussion comparing that medium with live theatre becomes a love letter to the art we can't practice right now.

High School. What year did you graduate? What was your favorite class? What did you look forward to every day? Remember changing classes? Remember lunch? Do you remember what what going on in your mind as you sat there in class? What was important to you then? I think the more we really learn about what our fellow humans do for their jobs, the closer we become. What assumptions do you have about the younger generation? This week, let’s try on Otto’s shoes.

Your host reflects on the many topics that came up in the interviews with Syler. The interview was conducted weeks ago and this episode includes a special update from Syler on how his job has changed in the Strange Times. Hear his resiliency shine through.

Syler is a youth pastor. One time, Syler got a BFA in Acting. And then he went to seminary and became a youth pastor. Because, of course. Your host exploits his unique friendship with a pastor to bring you a special peek behind the scenes to the job of youth pastor. Or maybe "pastor to students". Could this Syler guy make you want to go to church? Book II of The Pastor and the Actor comes to you as the midwest United States enters its second week of the Strange Times. This conversation will just make you feel good while you're inside...or out walking...by yourself. Please, hang the f#@% in there!
