What’s been cooking in Ted and Lisa’s improv and mindfulness kitchen over this last while?
It’s been a few months since the Monster Baby crew gathered for an episode so it’s time to get caught up!
Ted starts the conversation off by sharing “Wordle Haiku,” a new creative delight that he and a loyal Monster Baby listener recently came up with (1:44). Lisa then shares a worldview story from her new improv class at Stanford (11:26) and Ted describes how he’s making life choices by following the fun rather than worrying so much about what other people think (16:16). Ted and Lisa both share their impressions from the California state Speed Puzzling Championship—a whole new human ecosystem!—(19:14) before Lisa shares recent mindfulness and improv musings from her role as Ramona’s parent (25:19). Ted talks briefly about looking for a new life-organizing “polestar” after leaving a relationship (35:19) and Lisa mentions what it’s like finding herself as a new person (39:23)—life changes! Lisa discusses her anticipation for the upcoming Amsterdam Improv Festival (45:48) before Ted mentions the value of continuous learning (50:35) and closes with a thought about preciousness and predictability (52:36).
