Podcast Episode 223: MARCUS COWARD

Welcome, Marcus Coward, who says, "I've been performing my whole life." It started with dance recitals in elementary school. Marcus continued performing through middle and high school. He participated in many theater productions and founded his high school's first improv club.

He has evolved into podcasting and started his own podcast show, where he interviews a variety of people on Cable Access television with a show called Wake Up New Bedford on YouTube. He is also the co-host of the New Bedford Podcast, which is a part of the New Bedford Guide.

As he related, "Having been in the army for a brief period, I have become comfortable with being uncomfortable, and have thrown myself into the local political scene." Marcus ran for a seat on the New Bedford School Committee of Public Schools in New Bedford. His dream is to continue to serve his community while inspiring others to pursue their passions in life.

Marcus Coward spoke with The Artists Index Cofounder & Podcaster Ron Fortier and discussed his love of the South Coast, and so much more.
