Looking for daily inspiration? Get a quote from the top leaders in the industry in your inbox every morning. Paul Couch is the Creative Producer of PTC Stages. Over the course of a decades-long career in entertainment, Paul built a remarkable path through theme parks, concert venues, theater management, and higher education. Beginning as a singer inspired by live performance, he worked at parks including Kings Island, Opryland USA, and Dollywood while also helping lead entertainment operations at the historic Ryman Auditorium. Along the way, he produced concerts, managed festivals, developed theatrical productions, and later became an Assistant Professor at Middle Tennessee State University. In this interview, Paul talks about theme park career stories, entertainment as the human experience, and working with Dolly. Theme park career stories “Working at King's Island that summer was the best job of my life.” Paul shares a fascinating career journey that began with a desire to become a professional singer after being inspired by a live Neil Diamond album as a teenager. That passion eventually led him into the theme park industry when he was hired to perform at Kings Island, where he unexpectedly found himself immersed in country music and theme park entertainment. That experience introduced him to a larger world of live entertainment production and sparked his interest in building a career beyond performing alone. From there, Paul worked his way through Nashville's entertainment scene, balancing music industry jobs with carpentry work before deciding to pursue live show production full time. Networking played a critical role in helping him transition into management at Opryland, where he developed a reputation for getting things done and eventually became deeply involved in concerts, Halloween festivals, and large-scale entertainment operations. His career later expanded to the Ryman Auditorium, where he helped guide concerts and theatrical productions during a transformative period for downtown Nashville before ultimately joining Dollywood's entertainment leadership team. Entertainment as the human experience “Entertainment has a big footprint, not just as a business, but as part of the human experience.” Paul offers a thoughtful perspective on why entertainment matters so deeply within theme parks and beyond. He explains that gathering together for shared experiences is fundamentally part of being human, pointing to the ancient Greek Theater of Dionysus as evidence that people have always sought communal entertainment experiences. For Paul, theme parks are not simply offering rides and attractions. They are creating opportunities for emotional connection and collective experiences that guests actively crave. He also discusses the evolving role of technology in entertainment and how guest expectations continue to rise. Modern audiences expect sophisticated lighting, sound, video, and production value, and parks that successfully balance those advancements with manageable operating costs will be positioned well for the future. Paul believes entertainment remains essential because it fulfills something deeply rooted in human nature, which is why live concerts, productions, and immersive experiences continue to grow in popularity across the industry. Working with Dolly “She is the person that you hope she is.” When discussing his experience working with Dolly Parton, Paul describes her as authentic, professional, and deeply collaborative. He explains that while working with someone of Dolly's stature was initially intimidating, their relationship evolved over time into a friendship built on trust and mutual respect. He credits her with maintaining incredibly high standards for the entertainment experiences connected to her name while also remaining approachable and generous in the creative process. Paul also shares insight into their collaboration on Dolly Parton's Smoky Mountain Christmas Carol, a musical that premiered in Boston before touring internationally and across the United States. He emphasizes that Dolly values equal collaboration and genuinely wants to hear ideas from her creative partners. That openness, combined with her professionalism and kindness, helped create an environment where everyone involved could feel proud of the final product and invested in the work they created together.

It's only been 2 years since her last episode, but Mayanna Berrin returns for her 4th episode as we once again get to catch up and talk about her latest works! We cover the biggest thing that's happened since our last episode in 2024, and that is the critically acclaimed video game, Dispatch. Mayanna was a writer for the game, as well as the voice actor for the character of Coupe. We talk about how she got started with AdHoc Studios and found her way into both the writing and voice acting side of things. Mayanna and I talk about the game, some of the development, her role as a writer, finding her voice for Coupe, and we discuss a few of the choices people can make in the game (and yes, there are spoilers). Mayanna and I then talk about her Kingdom Hearts podcast that she co-hosts, Simple and Clean. We talk about how it came to existence, the planning that goes into the podcast, and we touch on what could come first - Kingdom Hearts 4 or Grand Theft Auto 6. We then talk about her work as Creative Producer for StoryQuest, an actual play platform for tabletop roleplaying games. We discuss what she does, and her continued work in the TTRPG space.

James Maury Henson (September 24, 1936 – May 16, 1990) was an American puppeteer, actor, animator, creative producer, and director who achieved worldwide notability as the creator of the Muppets. Henson was also well known for creating Fraggle Rock (1983–1987) and as the director of The Dark Crystal (1982) and Labyrinth (1986), as well as creating the puppets for Sesame Street (1969–present).Born in Greenville, Mississippi, and raised in both Leland, Mississippi, and University Park, Maryland, Henson began developing puppets in high school. He created Sam and Friends (1955–1961), a short-form comedy television program on WRC-TV, while he was a freshman at the University of Maryland, College Park, in collaboration with fellow student Jane Nebel. Henson and Nebel co-founded Muppets, Inc. – now The Jim Henson Company – in 1958, and married less than a year later in 1959. Henson graduated from the University of Maryland with a degree in home economics.In 1969, Henson joined the children's television program Sesame Street (1969–present) where he helped to develop Muppet characters for the series. He and his creative team also appeared on the first season of the sketch comedy show Saturday Night Live (1975–present). He produced the sketch comedy television series The Muppet Show (1976–1981) during this period. Henson revolutionized the way puppetry is captured and presented in video media, and he won fame for his characters – particularly Kermit the Frog, Rowlf the Dog, and the characters on Sesame Street. During the later years of his life, he founded the Jim Henson Foundation and Jim Henson's Creature Shop. He won the Emmy Award twice for his involvement in The Storyteller (1987–1988) and The Jim Henson Hour (1989).Henson died in New York City from toxic shock syndrome caused by Streptococcus pyogenes. At the time of his death, he was in negotiations to sell his company to The Walt Disney Company, but talks fell through after his death. He was posthumously awarded a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 1991, and was named a Disney Legend in 2011.PICTURE: By Gotfryd, Bernard, photographer - https://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/2020731151/, Public Domain, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=121240127

Sermon on the Mount E13 – In Matthew 5:31-32, Jesus offers a quote from the Torah about when it is lawful to divorce, and then he shares his perspective. But what is the context of these words, and how would Jesus' original audience have heard them? It's easy for modern readers to miss, but Jesus is entering a longstanding debate concerning a passage about divorce in Deuteronomy 24—and his take is surprising. In this episode, Jon, Tim, and special guest Jeannine Brown discuss the story surrounding divorce in ancient Israel, the Bible's ideal of covenant loyalty, and the wisdom we can find in Scripture to navigate divorce in our culture today.View more resources on our website →Timestamps Chapter 1: The Context of Jesus' Words on Divorce (00:00-11:51)Chapter 2: Divorce in Ancient Jewish Culture (11:51-23:06)Chapter 3: Divorce Compared to the Genesis 1-2 Ideal (23:06-42:49)Referenced ResourcesDictionary of Jesus and the Gospels (The IVP Bible Dictionary Series) by Joel B.

Sermon on the Mount E9 – What did Jesus mean when he said he came to fulfill the Law and the Prophets? In Jesus' day, the laws from the Torah were over a thousand years old. And the Jewish people under Roman occupation weren't able to follow all of the laws perfectly, leading to countless interpretations of how the people could observe the Torah. So what made this rabbi from Nazareth's approach to the law any different? In this episode, Jon and Tim discuss Matthew 5:17-20, unpacking its historical context, most perplexing phrases, and the greater righteousness that Jesus is introducing to his listeners.View more resources on our website →Timestamps Chapter 1: Short Recap of the Sermon So Far (0:00-3:03)Chapter 2: Interpreting the Torah in Jesus' Day (3:03-16:03)Chapter 3: The Sky and Land, the Least and the Greatest (16:03-28:14)Chapter 4: Jesus Differs from the Pharisees on Righteousness (28:14-34:27)Chapter 5: Righteousness in Matthew's Gospel Compared to Paul's Letters (34:27-40:17)Chapter 6: Introducing Jesus' Idea of the Greater Righteousness (40:17-47:18)Referenced ResourcesCheck out Tim's library here.You can experience our entire library of resources in the BibleProject app, available for Android and iOS.Show Music Original Sermon on the Mount music by Richie Kohen BibleProject theme song by TENTSShow CreditsDan Gummel is the Creative Producer for today's show, and Tim Mackie is the lead scholar.

Sermon on the Mount E7 – What will it cost us to live like Jesus in our world? In the third and final triad of the Beatitudes, Jesus declares that the good life belongs to the peacemakers. But making peace Jesus-style will mean conflict, pain, difficulty, and even persecution. In this episode, Tim, Jon, and others explore the cultural tensions surrounding Jesus, his audience, and the four ancient groups who tried to make peace and how Jesus' teachings created conflict with all of these groups.View more resources on our website →Timestamps Chapter 1: The Meaning of Peacemaking (0:00-7:18)Chapter 2: The Four Kinds of People in Jesus' Audience (7:18-18:14)Chapter 3: Jesus Makes Peace Differently (18:14-21:12)Chapter 4: Why Peacemaking Leads to Persecution (21:12-24:27)Chapter 5: Investing in the New Creation (24:27-37:52)Chapter 6: A Musical Summary of the Beatitudes (37:52-44:10)Referenced ResourcesCheck out Tim's library here.You can experience our entire library of resources in the BibleProject app, available for Android and iOS.Show Music Original Sermon on the Mount music by Richie KohenBibleProject theme song by TENTSShow CreditsDan Gummel is the Creative Producer for today's show.

Sermon the Mount E5 – What does it mean to be poor in spirit, mourning, and meek? Jesus uses these words in the opening of the Sermon on the Mount, and the guys examine them in biblical Greek and Hebrew, finding that a better translation may be “powerless,” “grieving,” and “unimportant.” These are the people that Jesus believes will have the “good life.” How can that be?
