My apologies that the sound is a tad quiet on the interview. This is one of those interviews that assures educators that there are "friends" in high places that support the arts even when that does not appear to be the case. Dr. Charles Dupre is the superintendent of Fort Bend ISD (for another month) and is a great friend and mentor, but most importantly, he is a massive supporter of the arts and theatre. His story is unique and inspiring. Enjoy! @mrblakeminor CashApp and Venmo - MrBlakeMinor

This is the annual Wrestlemania episode that Jay Thomas and myself record each year for the 5s of fans that listen. Let us know if you are a closeted wrestling fan or even if you are an out of the closet wrestling fan. We are here for you (and want more friends). @mrblakeminor @minorwisdompod

I had a lot of fun getting to hear the stories that Rachel told. She is full of so many amazing memories and some wonderful knowledge. Please enjoy. Sidebar: the audio sucks during part of this episode because Xfinity sucks.  @mrblakeminor @minorwisdompod  

My apologies for the poor audio in this particular episode. But you know what is not poor? - this interview with Travis Poe!!!  Please purchase a Minor Wisdom t-shirt and help fund research to alleviate Parkinson's Disease.  @mrblakeminor

Josh and I are two peas in a pod because we are super athletes that love theatre. Well, he's an athlete and I like watching sports. @mrblakeminor @minorwisdompod    

It is not often that I have middle school theatre teachers on the pod but when I do, I make sure they are the BEST middle school theatre teachers in the world! Enjoy listening to the smartest educator I know, Megan Wallace. @mrblakeminor

I hope everyone in Texas is safe and healthy. This week, Tress Kurzym is back with a conversation about Sports vs. Theatre, communicating with colleagues, and intimacy training for your students.  @mrblakeminor @minorwisdompod

My apologies for the long intro but the anticipation is worth it! Waldron Archer is a gift sent from the gods. Also, my apologies for so many "uhs" and "uhms." I never took speech and debate. @mrblakeminor @minorwisdompod Hit me up on Facebook as well.

A delightful interview with Cathy Huvar, one of the best!  This episode is brought to you by NO ONE! If you are interested in advertising on the podcast and reaching a large majority of Texas theatre educators, contact me! @mrblakeminor minorwisdompod@gmail.com
