PODCAST: Newt Meets Improv
So, as many of you know, improv is a big part of my life. And improv can take many forms. One of those forms is when one person steps up to tell a story about themselves and a group of improvisers follows with a a series of scenes influenced/inspired/imposed by the story.
Well, this month, Sean Duffy (no, NOT the Real World/GOP Rep), -- this guy -- host of the Can't Make This Up podcast invited me to take a nice trip down memory lane. So, I share a (in retrospect) fun-filled anecdote of life in Newt World, circa 1996 -- the Republican National Convention in San Diego.
Along for the ride are my Electoral Dysfunction pals Tom Brennan, David Kimball-Stanley and Darcy Burke who, following some extended preliminary banter bring the improv!
Without further ado, herewith is an episode called "Don't Have To Be Gingrich To Be My Girl" (that's a Prince reference, in case you couldn't tell. Particularly amusing since I don't believe Sean knew about my Prince obsession of my younger years).
