Paul F. Tompkins takes a pause to listen to the music before welcoming listeners back to Spontaneanation! This time out, Pauls special guest is musician and composer Hrishikesh Hirway of Song Exploder and The West Wing Weekly podcasts! Hrishikesh chats about who was his favorite author as a teen and why, recently letting go of all his childhood possessions, and what were his Lego masterpieces as a kid. Then, they are joined by improvisers Shaun Diston, Carl Tart, and Ego Nwodim, to improvise a story set in A Haunted Hotel. And as always, Eban (only the best) Schletter scores it all on piano! This episode is brought to you by Mack Weldon (www.mackweldon.com code: PFT) and Second City Training Center (www.secondcity.com/TC).
