About Find A Way with Collin Whitlock

This is Here For The Moment, a podcast that gives me an excuse to archive important moments and conversations with my community of friends, family, and neighbors. We may not be intergalactically famous, but we're no less inspiring or impactful on the world. Plus, I have my own selfish reasons. I know that one day when I'm old and tired of TV and the news, hopefully wise enough to avoid scrolling myself into oblivion, I will dig up these treasured recordings and I will delight myself with the beauty I find within. So, like a squirrel hoarding away nourishment for winter, I seek to chronicle the wisdom and kindness of my community so that one day I might find a way back to these moments, even if I don't feel lost. I'm Collin Whitlock of the Show & Tell Neighborhood, and this is Here For The Moment.

   S2 Ep34: Eric Atria Lets Go Of Expectation For The Moment with Collin

   Our guest today is Eric Atria. Eric is a man of many talents—you may know him as the supreme bassist and showman in bands such as Morningbell, The Adult Boys Thunderband, and The Shitty Beatles (who happen to have a show coming up at The Wooly on Saturday, August 8, 2026 so mark your calendars). Eric is ambitious, he’s bold. During the pandemic he decided he’d learn Japanese woodworking, a huge endeavor--not only did he learn it, he got pretty damn good at it. He also makes mini documentaries just for fun—he made one recently about the music scene here in Gainesville in the early 2000s, which his band, Morningbell, helped build. Eric and his wife and bandmate Stacie (who will one day join us on the podcast if I have anything to say about it), are fantastic parents, always putting forth energy and enthusiasm to stoke the fires of their children’s passions, creativity, and imagination. Eric also believes in giving back to his community. For as long as I’ve known him, he’s been a public defender here in Alachua—that is, up until about 6 months ago when he announced he was running for Alachua County judge. That election is in August, so keep your eyes peeled for Eric’s name on your ballot. Thank you so much for finding your way to be here for this moment with us today. Enjoy.

   S2 Ep33: Leo Castronovo Finds A Way To Be Here For The Moment with Collin

   This is Here For The Moment, a podcast that gives me an excuse to have and record conversations with my community of friends, family, and neighbors. We may not be intergalactically famous, but we’re no less inspiring and no less impactful on the world. Plus, I have my own selfish reasons. I know that one day, when I’m old and tired of TV and the news, hopefully wise enough to avoid scrolling myself into oblivion, I will dig up these recordings—some of which I’ll never share on the podcast—and I will delight in their beauty. So really I’m like a squirrel, hoarding away nourishment for winter, leaving myself a trail of episodes to help me find my way back to these precious moments with my community. Right here and right now, I am Collin Whitlock of the Show & Tell Neighborhood, and this podcast is Here For The Moment. Our guest today is Leo Castronovo, an inspired creative with the rare and coveted gifts of ambition and follow through. He’s a sculptor, painter, designer, stop-motion animator, writer, dungeon master, baker, who knows what else? Also, he’s 12 years old. This kid is a real piece of work, and I should know—I’ve had the pleasure of tutoring/mentoring Leo for the last five years or so and we’re still teaching each other something new every week. This moment you’re here for is a brief glimpse into the sort of teaching environment Leo and I have crafted for one another. A warning to the listener, our discussion delves deep into spoiler territory for quite a few shows—Stranger Things, mostly, but also at least one major spoiler for The Wire, a few minor plot points of Lost, and finally, spoilers for Shera and the Princesses of Power. Thank you for finding a way to be here for this moment with Leo and me today.

   S2 Ep32: Find A Way Finds A Way To Be Here For The Moment, with Jenna Horner, Katie Levy & Mike McVicar, Maggie Clifford, Ian Buhler, Andre Anderson, and Collin Whitlock

   Welcome to the first episode of Season 2... which is the last episode of Find A Way... but also the first episode of Here For The Moment. Confused? To make it plain and simple, we've changed the name of the podcast. Find A Way has found its way to a new name--Here For The Moment. In this episode, I have a few brief conversations with former guests Jenna Horner, Katie Levy & Mike McVicar, Maggie Clifford, Ian Buhler, and future guest, Andre Anderson, in which we discuss the change, reflect on the moment, and journey forward into Season 2 together.
