This is part one or two with my interview with Todd Gardner aka Hot Todd Lincoln . We talk about sideshow performance theory, gatekeeping vs protecting the craft, the strong people community, and Jewish humor.  How can we make our show more inclusive? What can we do when we make a mistake in our show? We talk about claiming responsibility and making actionable steps to be the best entertainer you can be.
