This episode exemplifies Martin’s podcast at its core and the reason why he chose to tell the stories of his life. The listener is invited to journey with Martin to the past where he recalls his father’s first time seeing him on the Broadway stage, the lack of communication between them and how they would eventually have an amicable reckoning. And as his story concludes not all the threads of this tale are neatly tied, reminding us that life has its own plans despite our careful planning.
