From honoring a legend to surviving burnout in the band room — this week’s On A Water Break is a heart-forward deep dive into the realities of teaching, grieving, and slaying the glam game.

🎙 Hosted by Nicole Younger, with guests Ricardo Robinson-Shinall, Whitney Stone, Trish O’Shea, and doctoral candidate Ryan Bronner, this episode brings equal parts sparkle and soul.

💔 We begin with a tribute to Bruno Zuccala, a beloved figure in the color guard world whose recent passing has left a deep impact on our community. Panelists reflect on his legacy, share personal memories, and talk about the importance of showing up for each other in grief — especially in a performance culture that often pushes feelings aside.

💄 Then, we shift into guard glam, burnout, and all the realness of band camp season:

 * 60-Second Tech Block with Whitney’s top-tier makeup tips for sweat-proof performances
 * 32 Count Life Story with Ryan Bronner (Patriots, college teaching, LGBTQ+ mental health research)
 * Water We Doing?! rants on toxic teaching culture, DCI staff drama, and performing in unsafe heat
 * Gush & Go: From TikTok shopping fails to massive teaching wins, wardrobe swaps, and doctoral milestones

💬 QUOTES FROM THIS EPISODE:

“We’ve got to grieve out loud. We’re allowed to take up space.”
— Ryan Bronner“Band kids are out here melting, and directors are pretending everything’s normal.”
— Ricardo Robinson-Shinall“Bruno was the sparkle. He was the performance.”
— Nicole Younger

Remembering Bruno Zuccala, Guard Glam & Burnout in the Band Room

This week on On A Water Break, it’s all about nerves, leadership, representation, and celebrating unforgettable wins in the marching arts. Host Josh Smith is joined by new panelists Dalton Stout, Clara Bagwell, and Eric Levy — all making their podcast debut!

The team kicks things off with their 32 Count Life Stories and a fun icebreaker: “What part of the marching band are you?” Clara relives her gold-medal summer with the Boston Crusaders, Dalton shares his journey from Nebraska to Colorado and launching DVS Choreo, and Eric spotlights his 20+ years of teaching and his work with Drumline Network.

In the News Block, we cover:

 * The retirement of Iowa’s legendary announcer Lou Crist after 44 years
 * Miami budget cuts cutting $12.8M in arts funding
 * A stolen band trailer in Colorado and tips for protecting your equipment
 * PASIC 2025 announcements featuring RhythmX and George Mason

Dalton delivers the 60-Second Tech Block on choreography hacks, and in Water We Doing?! the crew takes on audition nerves, teaching leadership in a post-COVID generation, body shaming in DCI, and the importance of ensemble unity. The episode wraps with Gush & Go, highlighting Boston’s first DCI championship, new percussion challenges, and student success stories.

Boston Crusaders Win, Band Trailer Theft & Choreo Tips | Water Break Weekly

Your All-Access Pass to the Marching Arts.
This week on On A Water Break, Alicia Sharp (@aliciaoninsta2), Nicole Younger (@o2bnpjs), and special guests Angela & Adam Miller from Meridian Independent Winter Guard take us from the earliest days of cadet guard training to the thrill of performing at WGI World Championships. We talk about how they’ve built a program where members start in 3rd grade, stick around for years, and grow into confident, high-level performers.

In the News, we dive into:
• Heat safety in marching band after 11 Mississippi students collapsed during extreme temperatures — and why policies for football don’t always apply to band.
• WGI’s new Regional Plus events launching in 2026 — double panels, more feedback, and what it means for performers and instructors.
• Rumblings about WGI’s new judges training platform and why mentorship matters for future adjudicators.

Angela also takes on our 60-Second Tech Block with rapid-fire tips for teaching cadet guard, we all vent in Water We Doing?! about swing flag rules, prop setup times, last-minute show orders, and the epidemic of open-mouth performing, and then we end with some big smiles in Gush & Go.

On A Water Break: Water Break Weekly – DCI All-Age Spotlight

Welcome to On A Water Break—your sideline pass to the world of drum corps, marching band, color guard, and the marching arts! In this bonus “With” episode, host Stephen McCarrick sits down with Neal Bright, drummer for the Savannah Bananas Pep Band, to unpack six seasons of stunt drumming, pre-game pageantry, viral social-media fame—and the reality of balancing it all around a school-day teaching career.

Episode Segments

 * 32-Count Life Story
   Neal’s lightning-fast origin: Effingham, GA → Georgia Southern & West Georgia → middle-school band director → “one-off” summer gig → permanent spot in the Savannah Bananas Pep Band.
 * Inside the Show
   How the Bananas blend choreography, crowd interaction, stunt drumming and TikTok-worthy antics into every plaza rehearsal and in-game routine.
 * Water We Doing?
   A hot take on why marching-arts educators rarely mention paid entertainment-band careers—and why drumline skills can become a fun, income-generating side hustle.
 * Gush & Go
   Great news: Neal’s first child is due this December (banana-onesie ready!), plus a reminder about Stephen’s July 12 drum clinic at Rowan University.
