Podcast appearances and mentions of will dennis

I recently had a fascinating conversation with Will Dennis, a high school theology teacher and founder of Unscripted Productions, an improv studio dedicated to helping individuals and teams discover their full potential. With a unique background spanning professional theatre, campus ministry, and applied improvisation, Will currently teaches world religions and discernment at Villa Joseph Marie, an all-girls Catholic high school in Pennsylvania.What makes Will's work particularly compelling is his conviction that improv—rooted in radical acceptance and contribution—can genuinely change the world. In our discussion, we explored the profound connections between improvisational theatre and spirituality, particularly through the lens of Ignatian principles like presence, discernment, and finding God in all things. Will shared how improv has become a laboratory for experiencing deep spiritual truths about acceptance, vulnerability, and collaborative co-creation, offering insights that bridge the sacred and the seemingly silly in remarkable ways.Read Will's SubstackUnscripted Productions

Here's part two of my conversation with Stephanie Phillips and Will Dennis.

Even though there has been a bit of a gap between episodes, I've been hard at work getting interviews. In fact, I have a new three-part interview with Stephanie Phillips, with Will Dennis co-hosting. We spent our time talking about how to approach building and maintaining a writing career in comic books.

I'm sorry for the months-long gap between episodes. Unfortunately, getting my podcasting muscle back into shape took much longer than expected. Hopefully, this recent break helped me recharge.My conversation with Will Dennis during this week's episode should get us caught up. 2025 is shaping up to be a challenging year for comics. However, the medium came into its own during the Great Depression, so bring it on tough times. An update-- The past 50 or so episodes are now on YouTube for free. When you get there, please like and subscribe. As a matter of fact, please like and subscribe to whatever podcasting app you use. It helps a lot in the motivation department. Thank you.

To learn more about 'Reverse Flipping', Go to: https://thescienceofreverseflipping.com/     In this episode, I interview real estate expert Will Dennis, who introduces "Reverse Flipping," a game-changing strategy for real estate investors and agents. Will explains how reverse flipping involves buying the deed to properties with complex legal or financial issues—such as negative equity, bankruptcies, and reverse mortgages—and then solving the problems before choosing an exit strategy. By acquiring ownership upfront, investors eliminate competition and gain flexibility in how they handle the property, whether through rental, wholesale, or fix-and-flip. Will shares insights from his own experience, emphasizing the profitability and recession-proof nature of this strategy while offering advice on how to get started.

I'm always excited about getting to talk to comics creators about their projects but today I'm ecstatic. Not only do I get returning guest Pornsak Pichetshote back on the show, who is one of the nicest people in the medium, but it's a double treat to get to introduce artist Terry Dodson on as well. They have an amazing project dropping soon called the Horizon Experiment: The Manchurian with Image Comics. This will be the opening salvo of a series of five one shot projects, designed as something akin to a tv pilot, each featuring original protagonists from marginalized backgrounds set in a popular genre and inspired by pop culture icons. Pornsak is co-editing the series with industry veteran Will Dennis (check out my interview with Will here) and the plan is to host all of them on the show if calendars and lives cooperate over the next five months before their release to give you a rounded flavor profile of all the cool eccentricity the Horizon Experiment has to offer. This book is fantastic. I love a big swing and often lament creators not having the opportunity to take them. Pornsak has not only crafted a great story here, but he's also providing the platform for other creators to take their own swings as well with the other Horizon Experiment books dropping soon. Make sure to get your orders in because this book will catch you off guard with the clever way these two have bent the genre and it plays so well off of the current paranoia of anything other in America.

Can you tell our listeners what the Horizon Experiment is all about?We understand it started over the debate of Idris Elba as James Bond. Tell us a bit about that.- Do you feel that dream movie would still disappoint? Is it inherently impossible for an established IP to take those kind of risks?Something interesting about this project is the notion that it's “designed to act as pilots for follow-up books if sales merit.” Do you have a number in mind for a series to flourish from a one-shot, and if one of the one-shots does merit a series how will you let fans know?Tell us about your collaboration process with co-editor Will Dennis.Were there any pitches you got but they didn't make the cut for this first five?Tell us about working with the Dodsons and Jeff Powell on The Manchurian.We'd be remiss not to ask about Absolute Power Task Force VII #4, with a focus on Batman super robot Failsafe! This series has a different creative team each issue, and you're teaming with Claire Roe on this one, was DC actively accepting pitches for this or did it come about organically?Anything else you'd like to plug today?

If the name Will Dennis doesn't immediately leap to mind, I'm sure you've read something he has been an editor for. For over 15 years he helped shaped the voices and vision of what is arguably the most recognized comics imprint of all time, DC's Vertigo, until he transitioned to working as a freelance editor for Image, Comixology, DC, First Second Books and TKO to name a few. He has worked with the biggest heavy hitters in the business for two decades and is now turning his attention to helping launch the new comics publishing company DSTLRY as its founding editor. We got a chance to talk about the foundational ideals of the new company which includes creator compensation benefits among other things, his new role with the company, and even worked in a bit about his love of painting Warhammer miniatures in his spare time.

As we continue to celebrate our two-year anniversary as a comics interview podcast in the month of February, I'm delighted to welcome one of the top writers in the game on with me today, Ram V, to discuss his new unique neo-noir crime drama writing collaboration with fellow White Noise Studio comics collective member Dan Watters, The One Hand/Six Fingers dropping in February from Image Comics. Ram is working with artist Lawrence Campbell on The One Hand that tells the detective's perspective, and Dan is working with Sumit Kumar on Six Fingers which tells the killer's perspective. When Ram pitched the idea to industry veteran editor Will Dennis his response was “I've been editing comics for over 20 years, and no one's pitched me an idea like this. So, you're either crazy or very smart. We'll find out.” I'd definitely argue very smart after getting a chance to chat with Ram about it. The inspirations behind it were very unexpected but it gave me an opportunity to share a bit of love with a fellow Cormac McCarthy fan. I highly recommend you pick both series up to get the full experience. The One Hand dropped last week and is sold out at most retailers and is now headed to a second printing. Dan's half Six Fingers comes out next week so make sure to snag it before they're all gone.

We wrap up the summer watching a movie that Mary loved as a kid, but Dennis has never seen--the original camp comedy and star-making vehicle for Bill Murray, Meatballs. It's the snobs-vs-slobs story that gave birth to a million imitators and inadvertantly the Wet Hot American Summer franchise. Does it hold up? Is Mary embarressed by a childhood favorite? Will Dennis regret never going to camp as a kid?

It's been 77 days between wins but finally the podcast has a narrative of optimism, as the recording comes from three different timezones. Will Dennis get stuck into a late night Black Forest gateau? Which star player is Mr Sankey not happy with? And will the Bellcharm Motor Company TNT Chinese restaurant electricity scam come to light? Plus, there's Daniel's Match of the Club, a UFO sighting and Gary takes his players to the Chambers. Enjoy. We did, almost.

No intro with this episode of CROPPED because I wanted to jump right into the Q&A with Will Dennis about his role with DSTLRY. And I asked him to explain what the hell is a Founding Editor.

To his legions of local fans, Dennis Schocket is one the hardest working performers in the thriving Harford County music scene.  At any number of local venues, you can catch Dennis performing solo, with special guests such as Rob Fahey, or with one of his bands -- Starbelly, 1974, The Atomic Light Orchestra (AL0) and Fabtastic Four. Under appreciated, however,  is Dennis's talent for creating complex harmonies and lilting melodies in the service of intricate pop songs that bring to mind  the music of Brian Wilson and Paul McCartney. Dennis makes a return visit to Mainstreet to talk about his new solo album "Weathervane," to be released in April on Tall Boy records, and an upcoming tour with his band Starbelly.  Will Dennis, or any of the gifted local musicians he's been associated with over the years, someday win a Grammy?

Will Dennis and I journey down memory lane and review the nine issues of Captain America (#247 to #255) that Roger Stern and John Byrne pretty much teased readers with in 1980. We ask "What If" and "What Could Have Been" a lot regarding their way too short run on Cap.

Welcome to Botched: A D&D Podcast! The group has seemingly saved Tedward from a very clingy snake god. Not to mention, they managed to convince the swamp witch to divulge the identity of the rougarou. That being said, they now have to hunt down that nasty rougarou and murder him. Hard. On top of that, there is this one legged man they keep around for some reason or another, all the while torturing him mentally and physically. Once they deal with this issue there's only one more mission left from Nadir. Will they kill this poor rougarou? What will happen to the one legged man? Will Dennis even remember his name? What rewards will they receive if they are successful? Will they bother to write them down? Tune in and find out!Join in on the banter as these dickheads whose understanding of the rules is questionable, and their moral compasses are even more so, stumble through dungeons, traps, monsters, and social intricacies as they attempt to complete a quest for wholly selfish reasons.
