Gary's original interview took place in 2014 when Gary was at the Indianapolis Star. Today Gary is an editorial cartoonist for the Indianapolis Business Journal.     The storytelling series was born out of 16 interviews I did in 2014 for a documentary on storytelling and how we use storytelling in all walks of life. Life and work pulled me away from the project and the awesome interviews have sat on my hardrive since then. I am now releasing the interviews in podcast format.
