A camera. A cancer diagnosis. True love. Romantic comedy. Award-winning writer and storyteller Brianna Barrett has performed her show about serious illness and resilience to audiences along the west coast since 2016. Now Brianna reimagines the experience of her one-woman play in audio form, navigating the threads of her life that continue to come together in surprising and unusual ways, even amid a global pandemic. Welcome to Brianna Barrett’s semi-limited series: True Love & Other Noncommunicable Diseases, a podcast that manages to carve out a sharp narrative niche, elevating “coming of age” by swapping tragedy for comedy, and vice versa, in a heartbreakingly awkward and hilarious study of narrator-versus-performer, and the memory of self. Inside today's episode, as timely as ever, Jay and Brianna break down the meta-meta and the nitty gritty of storytelling. What does “better now” mean for a cancer survivor? And what would your ex say if you told them that you had written a play about your past relationship and then performed it on stage for thousands of strangers over the past several years? And by the way. You’re going to read that play aloud to them. Alone. While recording their reaction. Brianna Barrett is a playwright, storyteller, obscure history buff, and avid tea-lover. Her full-length theatrical work has been developed at Artists Repertory Theater, Theatre33, Fertile Ground Festival, HART Theatre, and UCLA. Her TV work has been developed with Stuber, Farah Films, Hollywood Laundromat and ICM. She’s performed at venues such as Pickathon (yes the music festival!), and now she’s performing in your ears via her debut limited series podcast, True Love & Other Noncommunicable Diseases.

There’s been a huge transition on the national stage. The curtain has closed on one act and opened on another. There’s a whole new cast of players, and no one’s sure where this plotline is headed. Not to say that the audience is always sitting still to find out. This hour, we’re going to talk to artists who’re standing up with their art.Trump Inspires a New Era of Protest Music - 1:53Donald Trump's inauguration party featured musicians like Toby Keith playing the Lincoln Memorial. But alongside the celebrations and demonstrations across the country, there’s also signs that a new era of protest music is brewing in the Northwest, from Portland's Kyle Craft (who's usually more Bowie than Guthrie) to Seattle's Death Cab for Cutie, Wimps, and Tacocat.Margaret Jacobsen - On The Front Line - 5:43The Portland branch of the Womens’ March on Washington had a rocky start, with some group members feeling like the original organizers weren’t doing enough to make everyone feel welcome. Many group members perceived Margaret Jacobsen, who is African American and identifies as genderqueer, as a unifying figure, and Jacobsen stepped up. The Slants Meet the Supremes - 9:00This week, the U.S. Supreme Court heard arguments on the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office’s dispute with Portland dance-rock band The Slants. It's a legal fight that's taken eight years to play out, as the band has tried to trademark its name and the PTO has pushed back, saying it's a racial slur. The Many Voices of Eliza Jane Schneider - 13:47For five years, Eliza Jane Schneider voiced most of the female characters on South Park: Wendy, Shelly, Principal Victoria, Mrs. Cartman, the Mayor. She’s created characters for A-list feature films and video games, and to top it all off, she writes and performs award-winning plays and one-woman shows. For the Fertile Ground Festival, she’s premiering a one-woman show called “Displaced,” where she channels dozens of displaced individuals she's met around the world.All the World's a Clown - 23:52Michael O’Neill is a clown, big shoes and all. In his newest one-man show, “Shakespeare’s Fools,” he links together 12 characters from eight of the Bard’s plays in a single hour. O'Neill also told us about his journeys around the world bringing laughter to disaster-ravaged places with Clowns Without Borders, and then talked with us about the legacy of Portland's most famous borderless clown: Ben Linder, who was killed by Nicaraguan Contras in 1987.The Making of a Harrowing Expedition, On Stage - 33:05Everyone knows the story of Lewis and Clark’s expedition, but did you know that shortly after the Corps of Discovery returned, Thomas Jefferson and the millionaire John Jacob Astor organized a second expedition — this one by land and by sea — to create America’s first settlement on the Pacific Ocean? The writer Peter Stark recounted both harrowing journeys in his book “Astoria: John Jacob Astor and Thomas Jefferson's Lost Pacific Empire: A Story of Wealth, Ambition, and Survival.” It's the subject of the new play "Astoria" at Portland Center Stage through Feb. 12, and interview the only woman in the cast, Delanna Studi.Literary Powerhouse Roxane Gay - 39:49Roxane Gay is one of those writers who seems comfortable in every genre. She’s a novelist, a short story writer, an essayist, a pop culture critic, and a comic book writer. Despite the medium, though, she often returns to certain through-lines: the horror and pervasiveness of sexual violence against women, the challenge and necessity of feminism, the power of resilience, and the leavening agent of humor. Gay made a big splash in 2014 with her essay collection “Bad Feminist,” and she spoke with Think Out Loud about her new short story collection, “Difficult Women."

For five years, Eliza Jane Schneider played most of the female characters on South Park: Wendy, Shelly, Mrs. Cartman, the Mayor — they're all her. She's created characters for everything from the animated film “Finding Nemo” to the TV series “King of the Hill” to video games like “Assassin's Creed.” And to top it all off, she writes and performs award-winning plays and one-woman shows. Her voices come from years spent traveling the world, studying and teaching dialects and touring as a musician. For Portland's Fertile Ground Festival of New Works, she's premiering a piece called “Displaced,” based off of conversations she's had with houseless and displaced people across the globe. It runs Jan. 20–28 at Abbey Arts.
