Spring Day, an American comedian brushing up on her Japanese skills interviews people from all walks of life about their experience living, working, traveling, studying and loving in a second language—often in adult language so this podcast may not always be appropriate for young ears.

On this episode Spring talks to a member of the International Theatresports Institute’s Board of Directors, Chris Wells. Chris is a man with many, many hats and expertise. He is fascinating and a delight to listen to. He details the decisions he made in university that gave the start of his career abroad a jump-start. He also has advice for adults that want to learn a second language for the first time. Hint: How you did in school really doesn't matter.

Chis currently conducts the Punching Up Workshop. Drawing on his experience in psychology facilitating group sessions, this workshop focuses on finding humor with and about minorities and ethnic groups with your fellow improvisors before it comes up in a show.
