Episode 28: Take a Bach! Guest: Matt Baughman

Between 2 Butts: The Podcast That Lets Nothing Slip Between The Cracks

We begin with a St. Valentine's Day flashback, as this episode was taped a few weeks ago. It turns out that sleet, hail, snow and Covid did manage to keep us all in, or at least, that's Tice's best guess since he can't remember. Then local actor Matt Baughman sits down with us to talk about his acting journey, which includes four turns as Charlie in Flowers for Algernon and a performance as Uncle Ernie in Tommy. We talk about tough directors, Matt's transition from sports into theatre, being in shows where the star gets most of the stage time and the supporting cast doesn't get much to do, and choices you can make when the song and your vocal range don't match.
Then we learn about Matt's own podcast, "The Clink Tank", where "...guys who are experts in absolutely nothing provide advice, opinions and ideas on almost everything". And we wrap up by borrowing a game from The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, "True Confessions".
