About this listen

This week on Finding Friends, we’re joined by Kentucky theatre artist, filmmaker, and arts educator Taylor Greatbatch—aka “Great Batch of Cookies.” From Kentucky Governor’s School for the Arts to New York City stages and big creative dreams, Taylor shares the stories behind the sparkle: culture shock, learning to stop being “too nice,” building community, and navigating mental health with honesty (and humor).

Expect laugh-out-loud moments, real talk, and the kind of energy that makes you want to put on a wig and book a karaoke room immediately.

Highlights:
• The “Great Batch of Cookies” origin story 🍪
• Kentucky vs NYC: what the city teaches you fast
• Being unapologetically yourself (even when it’s messy)
• Mental health + movement as medicine
• Rapid fire fun: bourbon vs tequila + Grinch impression
• Tokyo Kitty karaoke dreams 🎤

If you loved this episode, share it with a friend who needs a laugh and a little hope.
