MEREDITH: Our next guest went on a quest to find an "Enlightened Comic" while doing research for the opening scene in her future film "Five Rites", a story about a dying 80 year old woman who discovers "the Fountain of Youth" doing the "five rites" yoga everyday. Her research hit an existential wall when she tried to locate an "Enlightened Comic", someone who she notes derive jokes from funny observations on personal feelings and experiences rather than judgments or criticism of self or others. We'll discover what she learned from her comedy research and how activities such as yoga inspire full length comedy, adventures. Please welcome, "Visionary Writer" Ruth Anne Wood.
