In this short introductory episode, I’m excited to welcome you to my new friendcast, Live Questions! I shared some about the origin of this experimental creative undertaking in my recent Substack post titled, “Friendship is my theory of change.” Inspired by my friend Stephen Rowe and his friendcast Firepit, I’m launching this effort at bringing friends together from across different seasons of my life to see what kind of magic might happen when we use podcasting to nurture real-life relationships. This intro offers a brief vision for what I’m hoping this might become, so that in episode 1 we can dive into our first conversation!
🔥 I reference how fun it was to be on Firepit with Stephen, and if you want to check out that two-part conversation where we chat around a literal firepit and discuss everything from poetry and songwriting to the art of hosting gatherings, you can find those episodes HERE and HERE.
🎶 The intro music is an original composition by Phillip Nevels featuring Deborah Ellis Suárez. It was a total last-minute delight to have them create this lovely piece just for this friendcast!
