Summary
This week, Gethard talks with a middle school theater teacher about growing up homeschooled, her time in a traveling Christian theater troupe, and what it was like adjusting to public school life. She and Geth talk about the importance of arts in schools, what kids learn when they get comfortable being on stage, and why 6th grade boys might be the toughest crowd of all.
