It started off as an experiment. I was walking around a local park early one morning during the lockdown. I started recording some notes into my phone (sometimes I do that to remember good ideas). The further I went, the more the ideas and stories started to flow. It felt like this might just be a good routine to get into during the whole lockdown. So, I decided to keep it going. Then I wondered what would happen if I just didn't care if others listened in. I mean, I might stumble onto something funny... or interesting or maybe something that others were also thinking about. As Hunter S. Thompson would say, "when the going gets weird, the weird turn pro." In that spirit, I started to think that maybe this thing that we're going through -- the whole "shelter in place," might just be time for creative people -- people with ideas or "edgy" thoughts or even bizarre stories to step up... maybe entertain people or inspire some kind of action. I mean, these are unusual times, so why not? And, that's how this started.
