To a Certain Degree

Founding director of the R School Meribeth Huebner gets up early to talk shop in this episode. Why starting an elementary school was the right move for her, and how she keeps it moving forward.

Local author and all around officer/gentleman Hunter Choate had the pressure of being the first guest of 2018 on To a Certain Degree. He was more than up to the challenge. We talk rejection, hope, and more rejection on this episode.

WMFE's one-of-a-kind space reporter Brendan Byrne returns to WPRK for another To a Certain Degree experience. Wiser, but still bearded and bespectacled, he once again puts up with Nick's flights of fancy.

Improvising. Podcasting. Creamy or crunchy peanut butter. Amanda and Emily are back for another episode of important topics and comedy gold. After you're done with this episode, check out their earlier appearance on TaCD. Then all of their podcasts. Then all of these podcasts. And then you can listen to whatever you want.

Star Trek. Artificial Intelligence. Hats. One of these three things isn't covered extensively in this episode with special returning guest Hap Aziz. Take a listen!

Jeremy Seghers returns to WPRK for a full-length episode of To a Certain Degree. When last we spoke, he was just about to stage Saint Joan. This time around, he's prepping for a 2018 that is full of work by local playwrights. Give it a listen!

Secrets. We all have them. But do we have a society of them? Yes! Learn more about it in this interview with Secret Society Goods founder and head somnambulist Sean Walsh.

Nick catches up with old friend Shye Gilad on this episode of To a Certain Degree. Shye's a business consultant, podcaster, and professor, therefore he had a lot of Bad Business Ideas pitched at him. He knocked them all out of the park, mainly to get them away from him.

A little comedy never hurt anyone. A lot of comedy though… And that's what this episode featured with artist and cartoonist Katrina Constantine of Kicking Cones. It's a great interview, so do yourself a favor and listen now! Yes, right now!

It's a Halloween Eve episode with the very talented ROBO OHNO. And it's early morning, and we're not in costume. Could anything be more the opposite of Halloween? Listen to find out!

Orlando designer Rhett Withey joins Nick in the WPRK studios, discussing advice for students graduating high school (it's really helpful), classic action movies (there's a context), and more (there's always more). Listen up!

Greek energy plays a big part in this episode with Michael Hristakopoulos, associate professor at Valencia College. We go off on other tangents, of course, that include politics, horror movies, online classes, and more things that are technically Greek in origin.

It's time for Maker Faire Orlando! To talk about it, Ian and Candy Cole join the show, and they also discuss the maker community in central Florida, Rush (the band), and Bad Business Ideas. This week, paddleboards. How do we make them more exciting?

AdLib Theatre returns To a Certain Degree, with Lauren Morris, Chris Anderson, Larry Goldman, and Sheila Goldman all stopping by the studio to talk comedy, cooking, and many other things. Dog braille? Yes, that was also a topic.

Two of the founding members of the Alterity Chamber Orchestra, Natalie Grata and Beatriz Ramirez-Belt, visit the WPRK studio to discuss the new group, their debut concert, becoming a classical musician, and many things that fall outside of those categories. And warm fruit!

Fellow WPRK DJ and tryer of all things Leah Nash sits down for a conversation with Nick. We talk piles of poop, music, solutions for post-Irma cleanup, and much more. How much more? About an hour's worth.

AdLib Theatre visits To a Certain Degree when founder Lauren Morris stops by the studio for an interview. We get to the bottom of her path to "Yes, and…" along with much more.

Journalist and author Amy Green shares some of her experiences from WMFE and the Everglades in this episode of To a Certain Degree.

With Ren Foskey of matchbuk.com being interviewed, you would think Nick would make more of an effort to incorporate pin puns. There was one, it was okay. Until next time, have a pice day!

Finding another Georgoudiou to have on the show was easier than you would think! It helps that she's related to me. Heather also discusses her role at OneBlood, social media, gift bags, and more.

Expert Timing's Jeff Snyder, Katrina Snyder, and Gibran Colbert take to the airwaves on this episode. They offer some great insight on making music, touring, breaking into people's houses, and much more.

If you need a jolt of energy, this is the episode for you. Bob Kodzis, improviser, inspirational speaker, and master facilitator spends some time with Nick. Good stuff, give it a listen!

The co-founders of Net Conversion, Frank Vertolli and Ryan Fitzgerald, keep on keeping on with Nick on this episode of To a Certain Degree. We talk starting a company, continuing a company, but not the end of a company. Not quite a story arc...Yet.

It's a very special episode of To a Certain Degree. Not after-school very special episode, but you will learn something. Jeremy Seghers and Theresa Hanson stop by to discuss their upcoming play Saint Joan, performed at the Fred Stone Theatre from July 28 through August 5. This episode was recorded on July 10, 2017, on WPRK FM.

Sustainability waits for no one, so it's a condensed episode with Chris Castro, the Director of Sustainability at the City of Orlando. He's also an ecopreneur, urban farmer, smart cities architect, nonprofit executive, and brand new dad. That he could find an hour to sit down is pretty remarkable, as is what he had to say!
