A Performing Arts , Arts and Food podcast

About the show

Tuff Shift! is a podcast designed to shed light, not just on behind the scenes antics, but on the incredibly resilient, reliable, durable, and of course talented folks who have served time running drinks, taking orders, and entertaining the masses. Who is the person seating me/ serving me/ clearing my plates/ making my drinks? Whether the service is good or bad for whatever reason, are you aware of the life these people lead when they hang up their aprons and put their feet up after putting up with you? With "105 years" worth of experience slinging hash and shaking drinks, the award-winning actor and singer, Sean Patrick Murtagh welcomes actors, singer, dancers, artists, creatives of all disciplines to share their war-stories, commiserate, and unpack all that goes into surviving the job and living the dream.

Doctors told me I was fine. I didn’t feel fine. I started to believe maybe this was just life. And then- at 35- I stumbled into Z-Health, a performance system rooted in applied functional neurology. I discovered that my eyes weren’t communicating well, my vestibular system—my body’s inner compass—was completely disoriented, and my proprioception- my ability to feel my body accurately- was somewhat offline. I also learned that all of these things could be trained! And so I got to work."
