Island Time: Kiawah & Joke Writing
This week Mike’s flying solo while Beth recovers from a relaxing family vacation at Kiawah Island. Mike takes a deep dive into the Gianopulos family’s recent spring break trip to Kiawah Island, sharing why this South Carolina beach has become one of their favorite travel destinations and what makes it such a special place for families.
You’ll also hear the story behind a big (and historic) Gianopulos family trivia night victory—something that had never happened before.
Mike then shares some exciting updates from his stand-up comedy journey, including big news on the comedy front and reflections on how writing stand-up comedy is surprisingly similar to writing a sermon. He also explores Malcolm Gladwell’s famous “10,000 Hours” theory and what it means for learning new skills, pursuing creative passions, and stepping out of your comfort zone later in life.
Plus, Mike celebrates his daughter’s new job and announces the title and theme of his newest book.
If you enjoy stories about family life, faith, comedy, personal growth, travel, and trying new things at any stage of life, this episode is for you.
