Adam Cannon first tried theater in high school, even dabbled in college. But it wasn't until he had his own kids who were interested in theater that he made his way back to the stage door, this time behind the scenes. Adam has spent his career as a teacher and instructional designer, but his passion is directing live theater. He even started a production company before Covid hit and shares the lessons he learned from that experience. Adam has worked in community theater in Cottonwood Heights, Payson, Spanish Fork, American Fork, Alpine and Cedar Hills, Utah. He has directed Matilda and the Utah premier of Bonnie and Clyde, as well as original musicals written by local playwriters. But one of the most fulfilling experiences he's had is bringing a number of youth into the theater world and watching them take off. Join me as Adam shares his passion and commitment to community theater and makes a case for why it's so important to support.

AIR FORCE VETERAN: Robb Wirthlin
Robb Wirthin is a graduate of the Air Force Academy with 21 years of service in the military. He's also had a successful civilian career working for Ford as a senior technical leader in systems engineering. But Robb's childhood dream was to become an astronaut. His 3rd grade teacher inspired this goal when she assigned him as a class reporter on the space station Skylab. Robb hoped the Air Force Academy would provide a foundation for NASA and he attended and graduated with honors. But careers aren't always straightforward and Robb used the lessons he learned at the Academy to help him when his childhood dream came to an end. In this episode, we discuss how to apply for and survive a military academy, the reasons behind the rigorous training, the roll that mistakes and failure play in our development and how to prepare for a military career. And I couldn't resist getting his take on Top Gun Maverick!
