Episode 190: Randy Fertel - Improv and the Art of the Sizzle

  • Summary

  • Randy Fertel knows how to serve with a sizzle, including on steaks or in life. Fertel, the son of Ruth’s Chris's Steakhouse founder Ruth Fertel (known for her butter-topped sizzling steaks), is an author who is fascinated with ideas. He joins Louisiana Life Executive Editor Errol Laborde along with Producer Kelly Massicot to talk about his latest book, "WINGING IT: Improv's Power and Peril in the Age of Trump," which takes a philosophical but fascinating dive into the topic of improvisation as a tool of innovation. Examples abound including the musical "Hamilton" performed in hip-hop. Or his father who once ran for Mayor of New Orleans on the promise of bringing a gorilla to the zoo. (He lost, but delivered anyway.) Also, here’s a chance to learn the truth about just how the steak got its sizzle.
