A Conversation with Calvin

CONVERSATIONS WITH CALVIN WE THE SPECIES with host CALVIN SCHWARTZ

Meet MARK STEVEN PORRO: “Thinking about what to write after my interview with Mark. One word popped. Sonnet. Let me count the ways Mark Steven Porro amazed. A life beyond. A devoted son who became caretaker of his 89-year-old mother. Yes, the word ‘Commode’ is in his best-selling book title. More words. Stand-up comedian LA. Acting next to Tom Hanks in ‘Castaway’ in the airplane crash scene. Hill Street Blues. The Ohio State University. Screenwriter. Residuals. South of France. Hospice. Industrial designer. No particular order to these words. But powerful stuff. To induce listeners. One illuminating, introspective, rare interview. Mark Steven Porro is an unforgettable force. ‘A Cup of Tea on the Commode’ is a must-read. We all have parents. I’ll be back with Mark when I finish the read.” Calvin.
