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 New York State Fair
The end of summer tradition, the New York State Fair. Most states have a fair and in the case of New York it takes place at the end of August and ends on Labor Day. Once the clock strikes midnight a switch is flipped and it is autumn in New York. The Fair is an annual touchstone of fried food, rides, cows, horses, music, all kinds of exhibitions, sweating people, games and more. If you it can be fried it's at the Fair. The constant and comfort is that no matter what is going on in the world, no matter how divided when you enter gate at the Fair, you are fair-goer a part of a community buying cowboy hats, eating everything fried and sticky, and winning a big pink rabbit!
