1. ==> Could Health Warrants Prevent Mass Shootings?

Americans are shell-shocked after a horrific weekend of
mass shootings in Texas and Ohio that leave at least 31
people dead. Texas-based clinical forensic psychologist
Dr. John Huber can discuss the psychology behind mass
shootings in America and why they seem to be happening
more frequently, provide a psychological analysis on
this weekend’s two mass murderers, and share ways
survivors of mass shootings—and distraught
Americans—can begin to cope. Dr. Huber will also
discuss why he’s an advocate for mental health warrants
and how they could prevent future mass murders. Dr.
John Huber is the chairman for the non-profit
Mainstream Mental Health. He’s appeared on over three
hundred top tier radio shows and thirty national
television programs. He’s also the host of Mainstream
Mental Health Radio, heard nationwide featuring
interviews with top mental health professionals.

2. ==> How to Survive a Public Shooting

How would you react if caught in a public place where
streams of bullets put you in mortal danger? Would you
know how to escape an active shooter’s attack? Should
you fight back? Play dead? Run? Stay locked in a room,
closet or car? Shield others? Use special tactics to
protect yourself? And what should your kids know?
Explore the vital answers with personal protection
specialist Allen Banks, CEO of Proactive Protection
Agency. He has developed Active Shooter Prevention and
Workplace Violence Prevention Training, and also a
special program for schools and other public settings.
In this era of violent attacks and even terrorism, you
and your loved ones and colleagues will want to hear
this specialist’s life-saving insights and advice.

3. ==> Putting an End to Extremism

What causes polarization and how can we reduce it if
not outright eliminate it? Rachel Williams-Smith,
Ph.D., Ed.D., has a unique vantage point on the fear
that leads people to view others as less-human and what
we can do about it. Dr. Rachel grew up as a child of
extremist parents who thought the world was about to
end, so they moved to a remote homestead where they had
little contact with outsiders and lived with no modern
conveniences. Dr. Rachel grew up fearing the larger
world. When she was 16 and her father abandoned the
family, she found herself living in a world she had
been taught to shun. Her fascinating story and the
insights she can share about learning to appreciate
other people who don’t think as you do could not be
timelier. Dr. Rachel is the author of “Born Yesterday:
The True Story of a Girl Born in the 20th Century but
Raised in the 19th.” Now the dean of the School of
Journalism and Communication at Southern Adventist
University, Dr. Rachel is an experienced media guest
who speaks about the effects of extreme religion. Reach
her at (256) 665-6257; rachel@rachelwilliamssmith.com

4. ==> Will 2020 be the Year of the Socialists?

There is a serious debate in the U.S. about whether
capitalism or socialism is truly better for the well-
being of the country. For example, are we better off
with the for-profit health-care system we already have
or with government-funded Medicare for All? Do we need
a New Green Deal or can climate change problems be
solved by the private sector? F. Patrick Cunnane will
point out that every time socialism has been attempted
it fails but because no one has been able to explain
why it’s unworkable the idea keeps resurfacing. Your
audience will benefit by hearing his easy to understand
explanation of why capitalism is better than
socialism—including better for the environment. Cunnane
is the author of “The Physics to Economics Model.” An
experienced talk show guest, he has been a corporate
asset manager for more than 30 years. Contact him at
(440) 666-5871; thephysicstoeconomicscorp@gmail.com

5. ==> 50th Anniversary of Woodstock – The Iconic VW Bus

This month marks the 50th Anniversary of Woodstock and
to celebrate the milestone a new film attempts to find
the lost psychedelic Volkswagen van that became a
global symbol, not only for the Woodstock event, but an
entire generation’s quest for peace and love. The bus
may be the most valuable American automotive art ever.
The only problem? No one can remember where it is! In
the movie ‘The Woodstock Bus,’ filmmaker and star John
Wesley Chisolm journeys across America’s highways,
backroads and junkyards to find the symbol of a lost
generation, restore and repaint it, and bring it back
to Woodstock where it belongs. John can discuss what he
discovered on his journey to try and solve this 50-year
mystery, why the iconic bus remains a symbol of hope
for a better future, and where your listeners can catch
The Woodstock Bus. Contact John Angelo at
john@premieretv.com

6. ==> Are We Minimizing Echoes of the Holocaust?

There is something eerily familiar about chants of
“Send her back,” the rise of white nationalism, and the
placement of undocumented immigrants in camps, subject
to family separation and traumatic conditions. For
Ellen Korman Mains, such horrors bring to mind the way
Jews, and other marginalized groups like Gypsies and
homosexuals, were treated during the Holocaust. Mains
says we must realize the danger of hate speech and join
together “to not only denounce it, but to understand
the factors that fuel hate-filled behavior like false
fear and hate-based rhetoric along with genuine
existential fears, feelings of powerlessness, and
projecting blame on others to avoid such feelings,” she
says. Listeners will learn about the Lodz Ghetto in
Poland, a holding center—not entirely unlike the U.S.
border detention centers—where about 40,000 inhabitants
died of illness and starvation, among them Mains’
grandfather; another 200,000 were gassed in a nearby
extermination camp; and, in the summer of 1944, the
remaining 70,000 inhabitants were sent to Auschwitz-
Birkenau, including Mains’ mother, aunt, uncles, and
grandmother. Mains will return to Poland for the 75th
Anniversary of the Liquidation of the Lodz Ghetto later
this month and will present her memoir, “Buried Rivers:
A Spiritual Journey into the Holocaust” as part of the
week-long commemoration events. Contact Ellen Korman
Mains at (720) 292-4520 until 8/19/2019; +48 793 366
441 after 8/20/2019; EllenKormanMains@gmail.com

7. ==> Valerie Harper and a Husband’s Heartbreaking Hospice Decision

When the person you love most is nearing the end of
their life, how do you help them? Recent news that
Valerie Harper’s husband won’t put his wife in hospice,
despite doctor’s recommendations, have sparked debate.
Tony Cacciotti says he can’t do it because of their 40
years of marriage and the amazing good deeds she’s
done, implying that he is making the loving choice.
Michelle Meier, a yoga therapist who helps people with
cancer, says, “Harper’s husband admits he’s having a
hard time letting go and is clearly struggling with
saying goodbye.” Meier can discuss the myths
surrounding hospice, why families don’t utilize the
services and support, and how many doctors recommend
hospice too late for patients to receive proper care
and pain management, and for them and loved ones to
come to terms with the end of life. Michelle Meier is
the creator of Flow into Grace and the G.R.A.C.E.
method—a system to help people process grief and let go
of the suffering that comes with it. She’s also the
author of “A Beautiful Death,” about find joy and peace
after losing her mother. Contact Michelle Meier at

8. ==> The Shocking Legal Reason Sexual Predators Go Free

Jeffrey Epstein. Bill Cosby. Harvey Weinstein. R.
Kelly. The list of high-profile prominent men accused
of sex crimes continues to grow, but Joyce Short says
many sexual predators never serve time, even if caught
and tried, and the reason may surprise your listeners.
“Rape is prohibited in all states, but the laws on
consent and the definitions of the crime differ wildly
from state to state.” Short says, “Consent is not
confusing, it’s our laws that are the problem!” An
expert witness on consent and a sexual abuse survivor,
Short is currently working with legislators across the
U.S. to change the laws. Her efforts have created
consent and sex crime bills that are pending in IN, and
SC. She’s working on more states including PA and NY.
Her media credits include BuzzFeed, Nightline, The CBS
Evening News, Inside Edition and more. Contact Ms.
Short at Info@ConsentAwareness.net; (917) 517-8572.

9. ==> Skeptical Journalist Now Believes in Unseen World

During the 30 years he spent at the South Florida Sun-
Sentinel, Kingsley Guy was known for his quest for
accuracy and his trenchant skepticism. He was, in
short, perhaps the last person one might expect to
conclude that there are worlds we cannot see and
intelligent entities guiding our lives. On your show
Kingsley will share some of the many events he
experienced that caused him to believe that God,
guardian angels, and spirit guides are every bit as
real as the newsmakers and celebrities he once
interviewed. You’ll hear about the odd sensation he had
the night his mother committed suicide thousands of
miles away and other inexplicable events he experienced
that turned him from a depressed, alcoholic skeptic
into a sober spiritual seeker. Kingsley Guy is a former
editorial page editor who had assignments in the Middle
East, India, Russia, and China and conversed with
hundreds of prominent newsmakers, including John
McCain, Hillary Clinton, John Glenn, Mikhail Gorbachev,
and Madeleine Albright. A frequent guest on radio and
television, his new memoir is “Piercing the Veil: A
Skeptical Journalist Discovers Unseen Worlds.” Contact
him at (954) 817-0261; kingsleyguy@bellsouth.net

10. ==> Protecting Kids from EMF

Electromagnetic radiation from cellphone towers,
cellphones, and other electronic appliances is
everywhere. Although there have been more than 10,000
global scientific studies done on the health impacts of
EMFs, most of us remain blissfully unaware of the
dangers. So what do parents need to do to protect their
children? For the answer, interview Beverly Jensen,
Ph.D. Dr. Jensen will discuss actions to take to reduce
electromagnetic radiation in your home to protect
yourself and your children and discuss whether that
cellphone tower near your house should concern you. She
can offer your listeners a link to her free eBook,
“Protecting Our Children from EMR.” Dr. Jensen is a
life-long practitioner of the natural healing arts and
author of the forthcoming book “21st Century Wellness
Rx: Health Hacks to Prevent & Cure Chronic Disease.”

11. ==> Could Your Kid Be Addicted to Sugar? Could You?

Did you know that sugar is now considered the alcohol
of the child? Did you also know that young people
between the ages of 17-34 now have coronary artery
disease–or that many Americans are now unable to enjoy
their long-awaited retirement years due to needless
suffering from diseases created by a lifetime of food
addiction? Get ready for an eye-opening show as Emily
Boller gives your audience the keys to escape addictive
food that can ruin your health. Emily Boller lost 100
lbs. and reclaimed her health eleven years ago by
getting out of food addiction. After going back to
school to study nutrition, today, she’s an
inspirational voice for food addiction recovery for
millions of people. She’s been on multiple radio shows,
podcasts, and The Dr. Oz Show. Emily Boller’s new book

Addiction and How You Can Escape It Too!” Contact Emily
at (269) 437-3931; Emily@EmilyBoller.com

12. ==> Is Your Sunscreen Safe?

We’ve all been warned to wear sun protection, but how
safe are the sunscreens we pick? Did you know that many
of the most popular products contain substances that
interfere with our hormones, and chemicals that may be
contaminated with carcinogens? Marcela Popa, M.D., will
reveal what types of sunscreens are safest, why creams
and lotions are better than sprays, and what those SPF
numbers really mean when it comes to sun protection.
Listeners will learn what ingredients to avoid, and
better alternatives, as well as where to find them.
You’ll also hear what may be lurking in other home and
personal products your family uses. Dr. Marcela Magda
Popa is a board certified Internal Medicine physician
and the author of “Keep Away from GRAS (Generally
Recognized as Safe.)” Contact her at
marcelampopa@gmail.com

13. ==> New Hope for Concussion Sufferers

The U.S. is currently in the midst of a concussion
epidemic with 5 million cases diagnosed annually.
Despite what you might think, it’s not just football
players who are sustaining these potentially life-
changing brain injuries, it is ordinary adults and
children. The good news is that there are effective
treatments available which reverse the symptoms of a
concussion by correcting the underlying mechanisms of
injury to the brain. So says Paul Henry Wand, M.D., a
neurologist with extensive expertise in diagnosing and
treating all types of concussions. Dr. Wand can
describe how a concussion should be diagnosed and
treated based on the findings of two diagnostic tests
and how even concussions sustained years ago can be
treated! Dr. Paul Wand is the author of “The Concussion
Cure: 3 Proven Methods to Heal Your Brain.” He is
currently seeking funding to perform the first-ever
clinical trial of an FDA-approved protocol that may
reverse all the symptoms of concussion. Contact Dr.
Wand at (954) 344-9772; Paulwandmd@gmail.com

14. ==> Doc Reveals What Your Illness is Trying to Tell
You

Do you realize you can empower yourself to reduce
physical discomfort, ease anxiety and even slow (or
reverse) the progression of disease? How does illness
send you messages about your body, that you need to
know for longer, healthier life? When working with your
doctors, what should you know about self-healing?
What’s the link between disease and emotions? Explore
the answers when you interview physician and speaker
Nelie Johnson, MD. Dr. Johnson will discuss what’s been
missing in health care (traditional Western medicine
AND alternative methods) and how patients are best
served when they become an acknowledged part of the
health team. Dr. Johnson is initiator of the Forum
“It’s Time to Heal,” offering an integrative approach
to treating illness. Her upcoming book is “The Healing
Message of Illness.” Contact Dr. Nelie Johnson at (604)

15. ==> Noted Spine Surgeon Reveals…
Why You Are the Reason Your Kids are a Pain in the Neck

Your kids are making you nuts and your blood pressure
is sky-rocketing. It’s not their fault. It’s because
YOU can’t control your body’s chemical reaction to
parental anxiety that’s actually making things more
stressful and making things more tense. It’s also why
the back of your neck is in knots, your spine is
killing you, and you are in constant physical misery.
But all is not lost. You can train your body to control
its reaction to stress. Noted spine surgeon Dr. David
Hanscom will explain how and also discuss why Western
medicine’s answer to stress has led to drug abuse,
gratuitous surgeries and just plain bad-doctoring for
adults and kids alike. Hanscom, author of “Back in
Control: A Surgeon’s Roadmap Out of Chronic Pain,” will
share research-based evidence about the direct
connection between powerful stress hormones and
physical pain. An in-demand speaker and talk-show
guest, including The Dr. Oz Show and Fox News, Hanscom
will also provide real stress-busting solutions to get
parents off painkillers and substances to relieve
parental stress. Contact him dhanscom@rtirguests.com;
(206) 890-1892.

16. ==> Stevie Wonder, Ed Henry: Organ Transplants in
News

Stevie Wonder announced to concertgoers recently that
his kidney is failing and he will receive a kidney from
a living donor this fall. The same day, Fox News
correspondent Ed Henry told viewers live, on-air that
he was donating part of his liver to his ailing sister.
Discuss the issue of organ donation, including living
donations, when you invite Joe Lafferty, an organ donor
advocate, to share his own story of receiving a double
transplant. Joe survived cancer, diabetes, vision loss,
a pulmonary embolism, kidney failure, heart surgery, a
double organ transplant and seven minutes of death; all
while playing high school and college football, working
for three D-1A athletic departments, the Orange Bowl
and the Dallas Cowboys. He coached 14 seasons of high
school football, including 15 future NFL players, and
is a member of the Donate Life Hollywood board and
coauthor “Justin Time: A Memoir of Faith and Fight for
Life.” Contact him at (412) 897-1313;
joelafferty@me.com

17. ==> Planned Acts of Kindness – Why Leave it to Chance?

You’ve heard of random acts of kindness. They are
certainly lovely, but why should kindness be random?
Could it actually be scheduled? That’s why Lyle
Benjamin created Planned Acts of Kindness, a global
social responsibility program in which each morning
people around the world receive cell phone and computer
notifications of a planned act of kindness they can do
with their family, friends, co-workers and in their
community. Benjamin’s goal is to have tens of millions
of people in the United States and hundreds of millions
of people around the world doing the same planned act
of kindness on the same day unleashing positive,
powerful energy into the world. “The problems of the
world — climate change, pollution, overpopulation,
pandemics, war and terrorism — are not going to be
solved by governments, corporations or religions alone,
but by ordinary people working on common causes with a
common purpose,” Benjamin adds. “The tipping points are
not 20 to 30 years in the future; they are now and if
we don’t get these problems under control the world
will be a very different place for billions of people.”
Invite Benjamin to talk about his Planned Acts of
Kindness program and how your listeners can
participate. Contact Lyle Benjamin at (212) 213-0257;
(917) 683-2625 (cell) or Help@PlannedActs.Org

18. == How to Enjoy Summer AND Save the Planet

Summer is a time for fun in the sun, backyard
barbecues, trips to the beach and other outdoor
activities. But did you know that the activities and
objects we use, purchase and enjoy in summer might
actually harm the planet? According to author and
environmental engineer Yasmin Davar: “Single use
straws, not properly disposing of trash, buying patio
furniture made from illegally logged wood and
purchasing more food than we consume can have a very
negative impact on the world environment. If we can all
change small habits to be more environmentally
friendly, this can have a positive impact on the entire
plant.” Yasmin can discuss how our small, seemingly
harmless habits can have devastating impact on the
entire planet, and how we can change this. In addition
to being an environmental engineer, Yasmin holds a
Master of International Studies degree in Peace and
Conflict Resolution. She’s the author of “Our Peaceful
Planet: Healing Ourselves and the World for a
Sustainable Future.” Contact her at
YDavar@rtirguests.com

19. ==> Do a Show on How Love Conquers All

Do a show on the incredible true story of a son who,
after 20 years, learns that his estranged birth mother

his face and refuses to leave the streets. He
sacrifices everything for love! Marty will share how
his love for his birth mom was tested time and time
again, but eventually prevailed – overcoming her
