About this episode

Our guest, actor, writer, and improviser Kevin Swanstrom helps Mr. Eric tell a totally improvised story. Will Buckaroo’s Everything Store have a successful first day, or will they have to literally chase down customers on their extra long legs?

Lessons include: If you only ever give things away, you’ll have nothing left before you know it! A good helper knows they can’t do it all alone.

Grownups, you can check out our guest Kevin Swanstrom on IMDB to see what he’s been up to.
