    S6 - E8 - A Healthy Diet of Improv with Andrea Buchholz

    In this episode, Sarah gets to interview one of her dear friends and learns some things about her, like what a dietitian is and how to pronounce her last name properly! Fun! Dr. Andrea Buchholz is a registered dietitian. She has been a professor of applied nutrition at the University of Guelph since 2004. When Andrea is not teaching, doing research and enjoying life as an academic, she is enjoying the other side of her brain with improv. She has studied, taught and performed comedic improv for the past 20+ years and she enjoys improv because it teaches us that it’s okay to take risks and fail. She also loves to explore and learn about fun hobbies like tap dancing and how to lift fingerprints from crime scenes. Sarah has some serious troupe-envy for Andrea’s long standing improv troup, TriCity Comedy. They perform monthly in Waterloo, Ontario.

    The Other Side of Yes with Matt McAlister

    Matt is currently a PhD student in Biomedical Sciences at the Baylor College of Medicine. He studies aging and longevity with the goal of (eventually) extending healthy human lifespan.(nbd) He has two undergraduate degrees, one in philosophy and one in biochemistry, which along with some serious improv chops as a performer, teacher and coach, helps explain what makes this conversation fascinating! We talk about life lessons from improv, including the power of being wrong and agreeing with someone who tells you that you’re wrong and the secret to staying young forever! (for reals but you’ll have to listen)
