Wed, 17 Apr 2024

Description

Send us a textWhen John from Showboat TV swapped his mobile DJ decks for the director's chair, he didn't just change his job title; he transformed lives. Tune in to an episode that's not only about beats and tunes but also about breaking barriers and creating a symphony of inclusivity, especially for those with autism and special needs. My guest, John, recounts his personal journey and how it led him to adopt a hiring philosophy that values capability over credentials, opening doors for the often underrepresented in the entertainment industry.Feel the rhythm of inclusion as we explore the unifying power of music and its role in personal growth for individuals with autism. I share a moving story of how an open mic night became a sanctuary for self-expression, building confidence in those facing mental health challenges. John shares the spotlight with an autistic colleague whose keen attention to detail transformed our studio scheduling, illustrating the extraordinary impact of recognizing and embracing individual strengths.Wrapping up with the joy that reverberates through Showboat TV's karaoke events, we celebrate the sense of belonging that's cultivated when everyone's invited to the stage. I reflect on the parallels between my days as a mobile DJ and the vibrant karaoke scene, where encouragement from the audience empowers performers from all walks of life. This episode is an ode to diversity, talent, and the potential that lies within every community, inviting listeners to experience the harmony of inclusion that John and Showboat TV champion every day.https://tonymantor.comhttps://Facebook.com/tonymantorhttps://instagram.com/tonymantorhttps://twitter.com/tonymantorhttps://youtube.com/tonymantormusicintro/outro music bed written by T.
