Episode 138: Forrest Saucier
Forrest Saucier joined me for Episode No. 138, and it was an absolute treat to get to know him a little bit.
Forrest is a son, a sibling, a partner, a man of numerous hats, and he's an important figure over at Tyler's House, which is a youth-oriented, non-profit organization over on the Kansas side that -- for my money -- is an amazing concept that needs more eyeballs on it and more of the community's dollars in its bank account.
In the world of interviewing, it's always refreshing to have a quick, sharp, eloquent guest on the other side of the table from me, as I tend to offer plenty of "Um"s and "you know"s and generally fumble for the words I seek, so thank you to Forrest for being who he is and what he is.
I enjoyed learning a little bit about his journey, and -- as per youzsh -- we managed to have a quick look at a few of Forrest's favorite albums over the years. Those were these:
Morning View (2001), Incubus
Motion City Soundtrack's Commit This to Memory (2005)
Camp (2011), Childish Gambino
Watsky's x Infinity (2016)
You can follow Forrest on Facebook and Instagram, and you can find most of the Tyler's House deets at either their Web site, on LinkedIn, Facebook, and Instagram. They've got a great program going over there, and they could use some funds and some grassroots word spread, in case you happen to be a person that can help in either (or both) of those directions.
Many thanks to Mr. Saucier for the time and the flexibility and the conversation. And many thanks to all of you whom support the show.
