I got a callback on an audio drama! Now, if you’ve never listened to one you are totally missing out! They started in the 1920’s, and really grew in popularity in the 30’s and 40’s. They reached an apex in the 1950’s and then were taken over by TV. My all time favorite is “Johnny Dollar” who is billed as “America’s fabulous freelance insurance investigator.” There’s tension, gunplay, fight scenes, romance and plenty of humor.

Opportunities don’t always arrive the way we imagine they will. Most of us grow up with a tidy picture of how progress is supposed to work: you aim, you plan, you climb. You do this so you can get that. And sometimes, sure, it plays out exactly that way. But just as often? The better things slip in sideways. They show up when you’re doing work that wasn’t part of the grand plan. When you’re helping. Learning. Filling in.
