All sorts of stuff. Mostly storytelling, for which I cracked the list of Top 100 Guests on Maximum Fun (barely). I’ve done standup comedy with some degree of competence, and I’ve also hosted a show or two (once with a terrible cold). I did a solo show in 2015. I once won a bag of candy at a slam. That’s about it.

[tabby title=”Producing”]
I record, produce and host the tragically neglected and woefully under-promoted (yet 5-star rated) Modern Stories Mix podcast.
I did the sound design for Susan Kent’s solo show, Into the Belly of the Beast, as well as for my own solo show.
I also served as story consultant for Lori Baird’s solo show, My Parents Are Dead and I’m Okay With That.
