This episode originally aired live on KWTF Sonoma County Radio on January 13, 2015. In this episode, Tristy hits the road, finding herself in Portland, Oregon. Thanks to one of my first Improv teachers, Toni Tabora-Roberts‘ wonderful recommendation, I got to meet up with The Knock Outs, an excellent Improv troupe performing locally in the Portland area. I had SO MUCH FUN with Adrienne Flagg, Scott Engdahl, and Brad Fortier. We talked, we improvised and we laughed… a lot! Dr. Shawna even showed up to help out a couple with some “mother issues.” And interspersed throughout are some local Portland music.
