Failing Up
Life is improvisation! Observations from a regular guy on how with world around us impacts who we are and what we perceive. I explore how life is more about asking questions than accepting what is presented. In addition to my own reflections and experiences, I interview guests from the art, literary, music, cultural and political fields to gain insight as to how we all impact the world we share and our joint realities.
We are all failing up!

The Kitchen Table Heartbeat Of The Home
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In the home, whether it be a mansion, house, apartment, flat, log cabin or a small shack, the kitchen table was the place where the pulse was. It was at the table where debates occurred, homework was done, sorrow and joy shared, the day debriefed with family and friends. There was comfort in routine; Sunday dinner, roast beef, and gravy, Monday meatloaf, Tuesday casserole, Thursday spaghetti, Friday pizza, and Saturday a surprise. Of course, some meals were seasonal and they would change little, but this is the place where conversations were magic no matter the time of day or night. It was the place where we untied through our common threads, and differences. I miss the kitchen table.
