Miki talks to us about how she became involved in improv and what inspired her to start this festival where improvisers who are fifty-years-old and over perform. At Improv theaters where casts are largely made up of improvisers in their 20’s and early 30’s vintage improvisers often experience the phenomenon of invisibility. Miki talks about how Vintage Improv changes that dynamic and about her upcoming 2020 Vintage Improv Festival (VIF) that runs September 10-14, 2020 https://www.vintageimprov.com/ In addition to the festival the VIF hosts several improv classes each week with improvisers that include Jay Sukow, David Razowski, Jill Bernard and Faustino Solis.

Musician John Sievers is looking forward to February — because “My Grandma’s Cardigan” will be the artist in residence at Thesis Beer Project in Rochester, Minn. On Wednesday nights, the indie folk band will perform; a different band will open for them each week, and Thesis Beer Project has event crafted a special beer in their honor. This is a year long project by the brewery, which will be hosting a different band every month in 2020. Improv performer and educator Jill Bernard recommends you head to Aster Cafe in Minneapolis for the release party for James Rone’s new album “Quiet as Fists.” Bernard loves Rone’s witty, catchy tunes; she says he’s great at writing lyrics that are very specific, but end up feeling universal. The music begins at 9 p.m. on Friday. Arts lover Nina Grunseth thinks Hennepin History Museum is an underrated gem that deserves more attention. Case in point: It’s currently showing an exhibition on women’s voting rights in honor of the centenary of the passage of the 19th amendment. In conjunction with the exhibition, there will be a birthday party for Susan B. Anthony on Feb. 15. “Votes for Women” runs through July 5.

Codex is joined by comedian Peter-john Byrnes to burn it all to the ground (hypothetically). You can find the book online and at the local Bronco dealership.   If I Did It: Confessions of the Killer by OJ Simpson   Get the full story in O.J. Simpson’s own words! On July 31, 2007 Federal Court Judge A. Jay Cristol awarded the Goldman family the rights to If I Did It. Thus began one of the strangest odysseys in publishing history. The book, called “one of the most chilling things I have ever read” by Barbara Walters, skyrocketed up bestseller lists across the country in fall 2007 as the national media relentlessly covered O.J. Simpson’s dramatic Las Vegas arrest for armed robbery and kidnapping. Originally written by O.J. Simpson, this edition includes essays by the Goldmans and a member of the Goldman family legal team that reveal the fascinating story behind the bankruptcy case, the book’s publication and the looming court proceedings, that would eventually lead to his conviction. In 1994, Ron Goldman and Nicole Brown Simpson were brutally murdered at her home in Brentwood, California. O.J. Simpson was tried for the crime in a case that captured the attention of the American people, but was ultimately acquitted of criminal charges. The victims' families brought a civil case against Simpson, which found him liable for willfully and wrongfully causing the deaths of Ron and Nicole committing battery with malice and oppression. In 2006, HarperCollins announced the publication of a book in which O.J. Simpson told how he hypothetically would have committed the murders. In response to public outrage that Simpson stood to profit from these crimes, HarperCollins canceled the book. The Goldman family views the book as his confession, and has worked hard to ensure that the public will read this book and learn the truth. This is O.J. Simpson's original manuscript, approved by him, with up to 14,000 words of additional key commentary.   SHOW NOTES:    Previous Episodes: 5. ‘Doc Savage: The Man of Bronze’ w/ Peter-john Byrnes 16. ‘White Rabbits’ w/ Jill Bernard 24.
