In this episode, we wander through the soul of storytelling itself — how tales give shape to the invisible, clothe metaphors in color, and connect us in ways nothing else can.First, a fractured fairytale: Hansel and Grendel (yes, with a d), where roast pigs, candy zoning laws, and Beowulf lawsuits collide in a twisted Grimm-meets-satire tale.Then, the mic opens to a master of story and sound: actor, writer, and radio legend Bill Reiter. From East Van record shops and black music pilgrimages to Seattle, to the rise of Groovin’ Blue — Canada’s first Black music radio show — Bill shares his path through radio drama, commercials, comedy, and stage. Along the way, there are lessons in improv, luck, and the kind of love only a life in sound can hold.By the end, you’ll see why Conovision insists: we are all stories waiting to be told.Episode References:Hansel and Grendel | Francis HeaneyBill Reiter: IMDB / BC Entertainment Hall of FameCredits:Camila Espinosa: Audio Engineer/Sound DesignMeg Griffiths : GGRP StudiosCaitlyn Bairstow: GGRP StudiosChapters:","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/uGViwnKU8IbvI4TvhFCh1i8Zdex4rMvbSRy4KcNBEPo/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS82Y2Vm/NjkxOGM4MmYxMWFi/YjE1MGMxMGQ2NjY2/MjY5Yi5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
