What happens when three children's entertainers sit down for four hours and answer dozens of questions about comedy kid-shows? On a beautiful, clear October day in Southern California, David Ginn, Steve Taylor, and Sammy Smith answered questions and offered suggestions on making the business of entertaining children a successful venture. The day turned into a great brainstorming session, and thanks to some diligent editing, the result was four solid hours of insights. The best aspect of these recordings is the interaction among the three kid-show magicians. As Sammy says, "Two heads are better than one, and three heads is a real novelty!"
