I’ve listened through most of your shows so far and I must thank you, it’s fantastic, exactly the kind of show I sought to find and which I find inspiring. Improv is just a hobby for me, but it’s still an important part of my life so I’ll try to learn as much as I can from these interviews. Keep it up!
Johan,
Outstanding! V.glad. If you ever get a chance to be taught by any of my guests, leap at the chance. All are different in sure and subtle ways, but each shares a defined passion and assuredness. It’s inspiring to be in a room with.
Thanks for kudos. Much appreciated.
Tim
