Show notes

In this episode Heather and Jules unpack the joys, frustrations, and hidden complexity of narrative improv. Improvising stories with a beginning, middle, and end. They explore why improvised storytelling is harder than it looks, how memory and expectation can quietly derail a show, and why trying too hard to "make the story work" often does the opposite. Along the way they introduce the Plot Monster, talk about teaching narrative later rather than sooner, and remind us that it's completely okay to love improvised stories… or decide they're not for you. A thoughtful, funny conversation about why narrative improv is addictive, fragile, and absolutely worth respecting.
