Kate O'Neil Martino wishes you all peace outside.

My guest this week at Radio Free Brooklyn Studios was the sunny and bright comedian, actor, school teacher, director, and prolific producer Kate O'Neil Martino (@indiequeen14)! It was pure delight having Kate on, and she was so sweet, generous, and transparent during our hang. Kate told us all about teaching English and Theater to unruly eighth graders and her unique approach to doing so, we talked about the struggle we share of loving to teach versus longing to perform, Kate tells us all how she's grown to become such a prolific self-producer of improv comedy shows, she details her history as a troubled youth and the guidance counselor who saved her life, how her tough childhood informs her teaching and her parenting, Kate tells us about her experience being the weird girl, her love of spooky things, and much more! It's such a revealing and sincere conversation, I'm really honored to share it with you. And don't you for a second think this episode skimps at all on incredibly stupid, dumb, hilarious improv scenes, because Kate and I get into a lot of em, including a scene about fledgling lawyer who's sick of not being taken seriously in court by the presiding judge. This episode was so fun to record, so if you didn't hear broadcasted live (every Thursday night on Radio Free Brooklyn, 11pm ET) hit play and give it a listen here! And if you love it, please rate, subscribe, leave a review, and tell a friend!
