4. Music is Actually Magic

For this episode we sat down and could barely hold it together with the one and only Jimmy Tunstall. Jimmy is a Greensboro-native and a theater kid through and through who left town at one point but made his way back to his roots. We talk about what it was like to grow up in Greensboro, the impact of the theater community and of course, about all the mischief he managed with shrunken heads and curses at the 711.

Hi Anywhere But Here fam! We've been away for a little but we're back and so excited to catch up with you all. In this episode we have fun reconnecting. We talk a little about what's been going on in our lives, Tom apparently bought a place (and has a cat that María finally met), María preps for a date post-Covid and randomly rants about medicine names in Spanish, and we talk a bit about what's coming up next in the podcast. It's so great to catch up with you! 

This week we got together with Demeanor. Greensboro native, artist, songwriter, banjo player, rapper…you name it! We get deep in this episode, y’all. Demeanor discusses his love for growing up in Greensboro, talks about music as a unifying magic and we get some insight on his current and upcoming projects. The twisted chicken salad at Fishbones also somehow makes an appearance again.  Shownotes:  Instagram -  Demeanor: @demxmusic  Studio 176: @_studio_176

In this episode, we sit down with Quilla. She is the local music producer, songwriter, and all around badass who also did our funky theme music. We discuss her multicultural roots, the importance of representation in our community and how Greensboro has impacted her career in music. We also talk about K&W food, Burning Man, and we introduce you (kinda) to a new member of the team!

This week, María and Tom talk to "1 of 99,” Matt Lee.

Many of us spent years saying, “I can’t wait to get out of Greensboro.” Now, years later, we’ve surrendered to our accidental love for and even pride in this city.  In this podcast, we’ll explore the various things that have kept us here. We’ll invite local guests, keep you posted on upcoming events, and we’ll provide opportunities for you to continue to explore your connection to Greensboro - all while laughing at each other and having fun.
