Level 1 and Level Up w/ Katie Burkhardt

from Improv 419

On this premiere episode of Improv 419, we are joined by improviser, teacher, and champion of embracing your weird, Katie Burkhardt. We cover her journey from Level 1 student to Level 1 teacher, discuss how improv builds community, and what it means to “ignore the audience” when performing. It’s a conversation about fear, connection, and the joy of getting silly with friends.

Audio Roleplays by JayeWilde JayeWilde These are a collection of improv and scripts I have done that are SFW Audio Roleplays. I hope you enjoy them! More from me? https://info.jayewilde.com/links The Partially Examined Life Philosophy Podcast Mark Linsenmayer, Wes Alwan, Seth Paskin, Dylan Casey The Partially Examined Life is a podcast by some guys who were at one point set on doing philosophy for a living but then thought better of it. Each episode, we pick a short text and chat about it with some balance between insight and flippancy. You don't have to know any philosophy, or even to have read the text we're talking about to (mostly) follow and (hopefully) enjoy the discussion. For links to the texts we discuss and other info, check out www.partiallyexaminedlife.com.We also feature episodes from other podcasts by our hosts to round out your partially examined life, including Pretty Much Pop (prettymuchpop.com, covering all media), Nakedly Examined Music (nakedlyexaminedmusic.com, deconstructing songs), Philosophy vs. Improv (philosophyimprov.com, fun with performance skills and philosophical ideas), and (sub)Text (subtextpodcast.com, looking deeply at lit and film).

The Ty - Bo Show Ty Eden As an entrepreneur I have always enjoyed working with people, solving problems and bringing solutions to those I work with. I am very active in Special Olympics and Western Dupage Special Recreation Association with my youngest child whose was blessed with Down's Syndrome! He truly is the light of our family!A Real Estate Investor and licensed Realtor in the state of Illinois, I also have a passion for creativity.Having been told that I have a soothing voice, that "guy next door" sound I like being kooky or sometimes deep and intense as well, trustworthy, melodious, soothing and reassuring.Part of my quest for creativity has also lead me to become involved in Improv! To perform is a fantastic way to express yourself and be you!I feel that if you haven't explored everything you can in life, you haven't lived a full life. We only live one life, live it to its fullest, do everything you can to enjoy it. Help others along the way!
