I’m your host, Beau York and today we have a delayed episode that frankly, I’m a little embarrassed that I’m just now getting it out to you. </span></p><p><span>Before we get started I want to do 2 things. First of all, just apologize for the fact that this episode is so so very late coming out. We’ve been very busy behind the scenes working on our immersive theatre project and there are some very exciting things happening right now. In fact so exciting, that I’m having to up my timetables on what I want to do with this podcast. </span></p><p><span>This will essentially be the final episode of what has been ‘Risky Business with Beau York’. Now Don’t go anywhere because the feed will still be here. But in the new year there will be a new name with a new focus on bringing you fully behind the scenes on what we’ve been working on for the past several months. I’ll also be discussing immersive theater from an industry level and highlight some news in this space as well as share my own personal thoughts on where the industry is headed. </span></p><p><span>All of this is connected to the mindset that stories have power. And the various ways we engage with those stories can transform not just ourselves but also our understanding of the world. </span></p><p><span>So for those of you have enjoyed this very short lived mini series of ‘Risky Business’ I hope you will stay tuned because we’ve got some really great things coming down the line. </span></p><p><span>But now I DEFINITELY have to apologize again because this episode was recorded forever ago. Several weeks back I was able to meet up with some friends of mine as we were discussing the, then, very fresh on everybody's mind, controversy surrounding comedian Hasan Minhaj. Our conversation goes into the ideas surrounding emotional truth, as well as audience expectations, specifically in the realm of comedy. </span></p><p><span>What is the exception for stories to be true verse entertaining? And when those lines are blurred, whose responsibility is it to recognize the blurring? </span></p><p><span><span></span>Elodie Leroy is a hummerist, writer, editor. Aadam Keeley is a professional comedian and Second City alum. And despite the moment of this conversation having passed, I hope that you find a lot of value in it. We certainly had a lot of fun discussing it. Enjoy! </span></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><span></span><a href="http://www.enterayor.com" rel="nofollow">www.EnterAYOR.com</a><span> </span></p><p><br></p><p><br></p>

Perception vs Reality with Dr. Jemar Tisby
<p><span>Subscribe to the podcast: https://www.enterayor.com/blog/risky-business</span></p><p><span>Follow Beau: https://www.instagram.com/incognitbeau/</span></p><p><span>Follow Jemar: https://twitter.com/jemartisby </span></p><p><span>Welcome to Risky Business with Beau York, I’m your host… Beau York, and before we get started I want to tell you a quick story. It’s the story of a poor Irish immigrant by the name of </span><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catherine_O%27Leary" rel="nofollow">Catherine O'Leary</a><span> who, on a crisp October morning in 1870, gathered her pale, stool and lantern to go out and milk a cow. This seemingly normal and insignificant ritual that surely Ms O’Leary had performed many a time before, would become one of the most talked about events of the decade, because as she went about her work, placing the lantern in it’s usual spot, the aforementioned cow kicked the lantern over igniting the barn and connected shed into a blaze. That inferno would quickly spread into what is now known as The Great Chicago Fire, killing approximately 300 people, destroying over 17,000 structures, and leaving more than 100,000 residents homeless. It’s an incredible, if not tragic story that was etched into the collective mental histories of a generation… The only thing is, it’s not true. That is to say - yes, obviously the Great Chicago Fire occurred and Ms O’leary was one of the first to be affected… but the story of her guilt and the famous ‘cow’ that kicked it all off, was all an embellishment of journalists at the time tapping into the anti-irish and anti-catholic sentiments of the day, in order to find a scapegoat. </span><span></span></p><p><span>Today we are speaking with someone who is very familiar with the role that stories play in both telling and corrupting our understanding of history. Dr Jemar Tisby is a New York Times bestselling author, national speaker, and public historian on a mission to deliver truths from the Black experience with depth and clarity. He’s the co-host of the Pass The Mic podcast, currently celebrating it’s 10 year anniversary, as well as host of the podcast Footnotes with Jemar Tisby. </span></p><p><br></p><p><br></p>
