Please be aware that this conversation contains references to sexual abuse and suicide....Where in your life can you create the conditions for tenderness?...In 1989, Richard Propes left downtown Indianapolis in his wheelchair with $20 in his pocket, a backpack on his wheelchair, and a handful of press releases announcing his "Tenderness Tour." A paraplegic/double amputee born with spina bifida, Propes traveled for 41 days and over 1,000 miles alone around Indiana in an effort to look for good in the world after a life that had been defined by disability, sexual abuse, and the recent suicide of his wife and death of his newborn daughter. He returned from that successful journey determined to break his own cycles of abuse and to do what he could do to make the world a better and safer place for everyone. 35 years later, Propes has traveled over 6,000 miles by wheelchair, raised over $1 million for charitable organizations worldwide, and is living what he calls his "good life." Propes is the founder of the Race Away From Domestic Violence, a 5k event in Indianapolis raising funds for the Indiana Coalition Against Domestic Violence, and is the author of The Hallelujah Life. Propes graduated summa cum laude from Martin University and is a graduate of Bethany Theological Seminary. He's the founder of TheIndependentCritic.com and is a member of the Indiana Film Journalists Association with his reviews carried by Rotten Tomatoes. Richard currently serves as the director of provider services for the Bureau of Disabilities Services (state of Indiana) and has produced a wide variety of fundraising events including poetry readings, concerts, the benefit CD "Give a Girl a Chance," the IndyFringe show "Laughing Sober," and served as executive producer of comic Rick Garrett's comedy DVD "Straight Outta Cowan." Richard has received numerous honors for his violence prevention work and disability advocacy including Indiana Minority Business Magazine's "Champions of Diversity" Award, Indiana's Sagamore of the Wabash, Prevent Child Abuse America's highest honor the Donna J. Stone Award, and the Jefferson Award. Academy Award-qualifying Heartland International Film Festival and Indy Shorts both present the Richard D. Propes Social Impact Award annually to filmmakers whose works exemplify a dedication to social impact. Having beaten cancer twice in the past year, Richard just completed a 160-mile wheelchair ride in September 2024 that raised $115,000 and eliminated nearly $17 million in medical debt for hoosiers.Today, Abbie and Richard discuss the creation and evolution of the Tenderness Tour, un-defining and redefining love, and learning to embrace the beautiful complexity that is interdependence. ...Stories Lived.

Bill Myers Inspires  Imagine being a white person born with a life threatening illness and the only people who did not given up on you were black people. Then later finding yourself homeless and black people once again providing guidance, shelter and a pathway forward in your life. Richard Propes shares his powerful story of how black people encouraged, influenced and inspired his life. Since 1989, Indianapolis activist/writer Richard Propes has traveled over 6,000 miles by wheelchair on a one-man mission he calls "The Tenderness Tour," an effort to end violence in the lives of children he began in 1989 with a 41-day, 1000+ mile wheelchair ride around the state of Indiana. While Richard's childhood story is dramatic, from his birth and unexpected survival with spina bifida to his early experiences with childhood sexual abuse, even more dramatic is the story of Richard's survival and creation of a life far beyond anyone's expectations including his own. Now in his early 50's and still far surpassing medical expectations, Richard continues to be an award-winning activist and writer who has been nominated two years in a row for Indy's "Best Human" in the Indy Star's annual community choice awards. In addition to raising hundreds of thousands of dollars for children's organizations worldwide, Propes is the founder of the Race Away From Domestic Violence, an annual 5k event benefiting the Indiana Coalition Against Domestic Violence that is now in its 17th year. A lifelong Indianapolis resident, Richard is the founder/publisher of TheIndependentCritic.com, a member of the Indiana Film Journalists Association, and his reviews are carried on Rotten Tomatoes. He's the author of "The Hallelujah Life" and has produced two short films, an IndyFringe show, a comedy DVD, and a number of poetry readings, concerts, and special events. He's been the recipient of the Sagamore of the Wabash, Order of Kentucky Colonels, Prevent Child Abuse America's highest honor the Donna J. Stone Award, Indiana Minority Business Magazine's Champions of Diversity Award, and just this year received the Jefferson Award. Heartland International Film Festival presents the Richard D. Propes Social Impact Award annually in his honor. A 1994 graduate of Martin University and a graduate of Bethany Theological Seminary, he's long worked to empower diverse voices and currently serves as the Project Director for the Money Follows the Person Program with the State of Indiana working to create opportunities for other individuals with disabilities to live in the community and chase their dreams. https://tendernesstour.com/.  tendernesstour@ameritech.net   ~ More About Bill Myers Inspires ~  Emmy Award-winning actor Bill Myers is an accomplished actor, jazz musician, filmmaker, writer, educator, and speaker.

* Louis accidentally locked himself out of his AirBnB. He then used YouTube lockpicking tutorials to break into his AirBnB, which was so easy, he succeeded on his first try. This incident inspired his idea, which is an app to help you find wealthy people in nearby AirBnBs to burglarize * Matt wants to "quantum leap" into movies and experience the events of the movie as one of the characters. He also accidentally re-imagines several other plot points of the book "Ready Player One", which he'd never read because he considers it too nerdy. Tom proposes a gruesome, "mad science" way to approximate this idea in the real world * Tom's idea is a futuristic tiny house where most (or all) of your stuff is wheeled in and out by robots. The idea also solves gerrymandering, makes "universal basic income" feasible, solves the Flint Water Crisis, and gives people the freedom to escape their miserable 9-to-5 office jobs and live nomadic lives of leisure. But everyone opposes it because it involves sharing toilets AirBnBnBnE (01:15 Louis Michael, @LouTheSurgeon soundcloud.com/salsaparlor) Quantum Leaping into Movies (12:37 Matt Hamilton, @MoistDefinitely podcast) Futuristic Tiny House (25:32 @thomaswalma) Also featuring @NickLeydorf Performed at IndyFringe at Crossroads Comedy Festival in Indianapolis #xroadscomedy

On the eastern edge of Indianapolis, the town of Cumberland is home to a vibrant annual arts festival called Cumberland Arts Goes to Market. Sharon Gamble invited festival organization Thomas Wyatt Watkins to tell us about the 8th annual event's offerings. The IndyFringe starts next week with over 50 shows in 7 venues during 11 days with 384 performances in downtown Indy. One of those shows is based on a book by Kurt Vonnegut called, "God Bless You Dr. Kevorkian." Travis DiNicola spoke with the creators of the show Jeffery Martin and Michael Hosp. The City of Carmel is taking advantage of its abundant outdoor performance spaces by staging its second annual Celebration of Bands, and two-day, free, family friendly feast of band music from Mozart to Dixieland. Sharon Gamble invited Indiana Wind Symphony Music Director Charlie Conrad and saxophonist Jeff Goens in to learn about the Celebration.

Author Angela Jackson Brown has taken "Anna's Wings" a short story she included in the anthology Indy Writes Books and has turned it into a play that will be performed as part of the IndyFringe's upcoming DivaFest. The Indiana Artisan program was developed to show off our state's rich assortment of artisinal products, from art to food to beverages. Artists Shawn Causey and Mark Daniell have created a installation that changes depending on which way you look at it - in fact, they encourage you to look at it from many different angles until you find your own "Sweet Spot."

Sharon Gamble invited artists Leigh Dunnington Jones and Sherry McConnell to join her in the studio to talk about a Spirit and Place event they helped organize called The Inspiring art of Quilting: Piecing Past and Present. Travis DiNicola spoke with actor Nick Abeel about the show which he is bringing to the IndyFringe. His show "Hold On To Your Butts ..." will be at the Indy Fringe from November 4th through the 8th for a limited run. Sharon Gamble invited The Children's Museum's Director of Collections, Chris Carron, and Public Relations Manager Leslie Olsen to tell us about the National Geographic Sacred Journeys exhibit.

Tonight's show is a bit different (and the audio issues at the beginning show it). We broadcast live from Indy Fringe for the Brickyard Battalion Board Meeting.

BYB President Josh Mason. Stay tuned for more episodes of the Permanent Relegation podcast.

Start With Art gives Indianapolis bragging rights around the country for one of the biggest business and arts luncheons, veteran IndyFringe magician Kayla Drescher and Sam simon, the star of his award-winning one-man storytelling play - "The Actual Dance" - that is part of the Indy Fringe Festival.

A vibrant artistic community will adds interest, jobs and revenue to a city. Indy is lucky to have an organization like IndyFringe at the center of our community. From modest beginnings just under a decade ago, the Indianapolis Fringe Festival has grown into an annual cultural attraction that keeps drawing record audiences. With eight different venues, 64 performing groups and 384 performances in 11 days, the festival brings performers from around the world to Indy. IndyFringe has grown to include DivaFest, The Winter Magic Festival , OnyxFest, Jabberwocky (in collaboration with Storytelling Arts of Indiana)  and a series of other performances throughout the year. At the helm is Pauline Moffat, Executive Director of Indy Fringe. Named as one of the IBJ’s Women of Influence, Moffat is an unending source of ideas and energy, transforming the festival into a vehicle which provides an accessible, affordable outlet that draws diverse elements of the community together and inspires creative experiences through the arts.
