The Odyssey Storytelling Podcast19 Jul 2019

Robert Gonzalez, Nemesis

We haven't checked in on our storytellers' archenemies yet in 2019, but every good story needs a villain, so let's hear from Robert Gonzalez, who took the Odyssey stage four years ago to talk about the woman who made him a better person by consistently beating him at...everything. Like, literally everything. You have no idea.

From Robert's Odyssey bio:

Robert Gonzalez is determined that his last words will not be, "This might be a bad idea." Even if that's what everyone else is thinking. Basically born skiing, whitewater rafting, and rock-climbing, Rob is a firm believer that the places never wandered are where the best stories will be found. And if anything, Rob loves stories. Absorbing a movie a night, a book a week, and making and writing his own in his spare time, Rob desires nothing more than to fill his life with adventure. Visiting Vegas with nothing, but a Frisbee and four quarts of rum, exploring graffiti covered storm drains, backpacking into the desert for spur of the moment stargazing. All of these and more have had Rob rushing from one story to the next, either through the power of his own body and experience, or the power of his imagination and creativity. Life is nothing, but uncharted territory to Robert Gonzalez, and he plans on exploring every inch of it.

This episode was performed and recorded in front of a live audience at The Screening Room in Tucson, AZ, on May 7th, 2015, and was curated by Molly McCloy. For more information about Odyssey Storytelling, please visit www.odysseystorytelling.com
