A subversive podcast taking refuge in The Sanctuary of Allegory about the fragility of memory. With Audio Chimera I share memories from my past, while at the same commenting on various aspects of modern life. The links are not always obvious, since I create each podcast through stream of consciousness writing techniques—and sometimes even I am surprised by the connections!

An actual play podcast in which old friends get together to tell strange stories. Dice are involved. In season one, The Old Bones, we follow an obsessive technophile and her crew of alien misfits--a bodyguard with a checkered past; a feline warrior and reluctant heretic; a disgraced lawyer bound to a mysterious mech; and a financial instrument with a mind of her own--as they explore the universe in search of purpose and profit, aboard an ancient starship with secrets of its own.

Chimera è un podcast sui libri, ma non vi aspettate toni pacati. Una puntata al mese in cui Marianna e Giulia litigh… discutono e recensiscono un libro. Un libro solo, ma due opinioni differenti, spesso in aperto conflitto. Parleremo dei libri migliori, dei romanzi che sono di tendenza, delle opere che vi hanno detto essere imperdibili. Inoltre, ci sarà un intermezzo al mese, più breve rispetto alla puntata, in cui vi consiglieremo libri affini e similari a quello recensito nella puntata pre ...

My religion—Catholicism—was presented to me as Holy Armor, to be worn as protection against the evils of the world. But armor tends to rust, as mine certainly did. So I see the world through the lens of secular humanism. Also, pop quiz: what does a bodhisattva and an escapee from Plato's Cave have in common?…

As a young undergrad snob new to academia, I was pretty full of myself about that. I denigrated mere laborers. And that's odd since I came from such humble beginnings, and had many not-great jobs. Luckily, with age comes wisdom and tolerance, at least in my case.Stephen Schrum

People love that Christmas classic stop motion animation version of Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer and watch it annually. But for me, it embodies so many terrible ideas. Pro-conformity, anti-environmental, anti-union, anti-individual...it's the embodiment of so many things I value.Stephen Schrum

Was I abducted by aliens? Well...I have a long history of reading conspiracy theories about aliens. And I've used this research into creating several plays about aliens. Take a listen to learn more about those plays, and to answer that abduction question. (The link to "proof" is on my blog at https://musofyr.org.)…

So many people say they strive for perfection. But I say unto you: perfectionism's a false idol. Too often it leads to things not getting finished because the things will never be perfect. (And sometimes it's just an excuse not to finish something.) So I propose an alternative: abandon perfection, and strive for excellence instead.…

I have a great network of friends around the country and some acquaintances abroad. And yet I still lament the loss of friends with whom I have lost touch, in one way or another. I'm a very loyal person and try to stay in contact, perhaps beyond when I should. Here are some reminiscences of three particular lost friends.…

People are always making New Year's Resolutions that add things to their lives and busy schedules and I once read an article that suggested we reduce what we do. So that's my resolution: which I am making on the eve of the arrival of a new kitten. Follow my blog at musofyr.org for more on that! Incidentally this concludes Season 5 of Audio Chimera;…

I may be retired but it's not stopping me from reflecting on those years of teaching and talking/sharing some success stories. One of the problems I had was science majors telling me they didn't know how to write an "arts paper" since they didn't write research papers but rather lab reports. To address this, I added a new way of looking at my resea…

This is the third episode of my audio drama series Kid Again, which is what I am calling Autobiographical Speculative Fiction, about a man who suddenly finds himself back in high school. What he can he change about himself and his experiences that will make this time more fun? Having been a total nerd before, he now decides to go to a high school d…

The transition from College Professor to retired college professor takes in more than the addition of the word "retired" and the subtraction of the capital letters in the title. One's life may downsize—but how does a creative artist maintain professional and creative work without the resources one had before? Here's my take.…

Mrs. Malaprop is a character in Richard Brinsley Sheridan's 1775 play The Rivals. She attempts to sound intelligent and sophisticated but uses the wrong words. This is something that comedians, such as Norm Crosby, have used successfully, but it also happens to real people. Here are some of the malapropisms that I presented to my Intro to Theatre s…

A tale I've often told—the problems of getting my PhD from the UC Berkeley Department of Dramatic Art. I truly became a scholar and director as a result of being in the program, but as I explain, it could have gone a lot more smoothly. As I was recordoing Episode #51, I kept talking and talking... It went long, so I broke the story up into two part…

A tale I've often told—the problems of getting my PhD from the UC Berkeley Department of Dramatic Art.

I recently found out where the term "Poster Child" started (hint: polio). Then I wondered what I might be a poster person for, and realized there are three health issues I automatically try to get people to deal with" So here they are!

People in academia often get asked, why are you retiring? What will you do with yourself? But there is more to life (and academia) than teaching, and I felt the need to enumerate them. I once thought I'd work till 67, like my mother did, but now I'm 65 and making room for the next person. How things have changed since I was a student, both with stu…

So frustration will quickly send me into an angry outburst. But for me, the important thing in that I recover quickly. Step on my tail, I yowl, and then life returns to normal. How do I know I've mellowed over the years? I can tell by the way I have changed in my attitude toward directing and rehearsals. Sometimes, you just have to laugh—and other …

The topic of migration has been hotly debated. Let me weigh in, with my opinion informed by visiting some Central American countries on a cruise with the new love of my life, Joyce.

Hey friends, I am afraid the time has come to announce that we’re putting the show on an indefinite hiatus. I am simply not able to keep up with the production process at this time.

Una delle nostre Chimere, orfana della sua gemella, ha vagato per il Salone del Libro importunando poveri lavoratori intenti a fare uno dei mestieri più belli del mondo: occuparsi di libri. Insomma, se le Chimere sono ancora due e non una, è solo perché gli ospiti di questa puntata sono stati moooolto pazienti e non l'hanno scaraventata nelle segre…

I wrote an audio series called Kid Again, about a man who suddenly finds himself 14 and back in his 9th grade classroom. He's not sure if he's dreaming or time traveling, but decides that he can have a lot more fun this time around if it is real. We put the episode together by having the actors record their lines and then assembled the dialogue wit…
