1. ==> The Future of Crypto Under Trump

It’s no secret that Donald Trump is a fan of cryptocurrency, so how will his tenure in the White House affect the state of crypto over the next four years? Attorney JR Lanis says major cryptocurrencies have already appreciated significantly since Trump’s election. Lanis, one of only a handful of U.S. attorneys who fully understands the impact of the new Trump presidency on the future of cryptocurrency, will discuss how this “futuristic” technology is changing the way money is exchanged. Ask him: Who will regulate this relatively new “new currency” and what do those de-or re-regulations look like? How can people safeguard such an investment? Now that Bitcoin is traded via ETF, will other cryptocurrencies be next? JR Lanis is partner at BakerHostetler Law Company. He often appears in the media commenting on breaking news and has been quoted in “The Wall Street Journal” and “Law360” and on Bloomberg news and CNBC.

2. ==> How Trump’s Second Term Will Differ From First

When President-elect Donald Trump is inaugurated in January, he’ll assume the powers of the presidency with a sense of what he wants to accomplish and how to get it done. David Samuels, editor of the magazine “County Highway,” can discuss what will be different about Trump’s second stint in the Oval Office. Ask him: What new policies might Trump pursue that he was unable to achieve in his first term, and what obstacles would he face in implementing them? How might Trump’s approach to foreign policy differ in a second term, especially in relation to allies and adversaries? Will Trump focus more on reversing Biden administration policies, or will he aim to set entirely new legislative priorities? Samuels, a longtime writer for “Harper’s,” “The New Yorker” and other magazines, started “County Highway” during the Covid lockdowns when many people became disillusioned with big city life, leading some to move to rural areas. The publication is rooted in the idea that counties are the perfect-sized communities for storytelling, drawing inspiration from real and fictional American counties.

3. ==> Harvard Study – Being Thankful Helps You Live Longer

Are you having a tough time feeling thankful this year? When you are struggling with finances, dealing with grief or upset over politics, it’s difficult to count your blessings. It may help to consider that science says practicing gratitude can help you live longer. In a recent Harvard University study, researchers monitored nearly 50,000 women for three years and found those who reported having a “long list” of things to be grateful for actually lived the longest. As you prepare to consider the things in life for which you are most grateful this Thanksgiving, invite award-winning journalist Peter Lovenheim to share ways to cultivate gratitude. His new book, “Gift Shop of Gratitude: A Journal to Explore the Journey of Your Life,” is a workbook that helps you recall and organize memories by thinking of 20 common gift shop souvenirs. Snow globes and ball caps to t-shirts, postcards, and jewelry. The exercises reveal what people, places, and life experiences you hold dear and what memories each of the items bring back for you. Peter is an author and journalist whose articles and essays have appeared in the “New York Times,” “New York Magazine,” “The Los Angeles Times,” “Parade,” “Politico,” “The Washington Post,” and other publications.

4. ==> 3-Minute Practice to Stave Off the Winter Blues

The clocks have officially been set back and we’re settling into shorter days and longer nights. For many, the end of daylight savings marks the beginning of the winter blues. But there’s no need to fear because Dr. Greg Hammer is eager to share his tried-and-true mindfulness practice that will help boost your mental resilience and give you the tools to thrive during the frigid winter months. He’ll teach listeners a 3-minute tool to combat negative thoughts and rewire the brain with daily practice. He’ll also discuss what it is about winter that makes us feel more prone to anxiety, depression, and burnout, ways to deal with chronic stress and the importance of getting outside. “SAD affects 20% of adults in the US—6% are severely affected and 14% suffer to some degree. In a time when anxiety and depression have already been skyrocketing due to social, political, and economic unrest, it’s more important than ever to take preventative measures to protect our mental health from a seasonal decline,” he says. Greg Hammer, M.D., is a recently retired professor at Stanford University School of Medicine, pediatric intensive care physician, pediatric anesthesiologist, wellness and mindfulness lecturer, and the author of “GAIN without Pain: The Happiness Handbook for Health Care Professionals.” Contact Mackenzie August at (661) 255-8283; mackenzie@steveallenmedia.com

5. ==> Good News/Bad News About Young Cancer Survivors

Fortunately, cancer is increasingly becoming a treatable disease, especially for those diagnosed in their 20s, 30s and 40s, but experts say too little attention is paid to the quality of life young people are left to live when they’re no longer actively undergoing medical treatment. Alison Silberman, CEO of Stupid Cancer, a group for people affected by young-adult cancer, says they have so much life to live, their needs are greater and more complex. She says often their educational, financial, or social concerns go ignored or undiscussed, leaving them unprepared. “A lot of these survivorship questions are being asked too late, and they’ve lost years where they could have prepared for it,” she says. Things like whether to preserve fertility, how to keep social and educational connections, or how to budget for out-of-pocket costs of aftercare and manage disruptions in career and income. “Those conversations need to happen earlier and they need to happen more often.” Silberman herself lost a beloved 24-year-old younger brother who died following a grueling 18-month bout with Ewing’s Sarcoma, a form of bone cancer, and the punishing treatments. “It kind of put a halt to my life,” says Silberman of caretaking and mourning him, which prompted her to pursue patient advocacy.

12. ==> From Shattered to Soaring: This Guest Helps Childhood Trauma Survivors Heal

Author, coach, and therapist Lisa Morgan endured the kind of trauma that many might not survive. Her childhood was marked by extreme terror, trauma, sexual abuse, violence, and neglect. As a result, her body, mind, heart, and soul resorted to two profound levels of spiritual survival; what Lisa describes as “soul fracturing” and “100 percent total amnesia.” “Traditional psychiatry would label this as multiple personality disorder with repressed memories,” she says. She is living proof that these survival traits are intrinsic mechanisms built into the soul and DNA of every human being. Lisa is a speaker, and coach with 35-plus years of experience as a certified life coach, board- certified music therapist, and creator of Lisa’s Freedom Body Blueprint© coaching methodology.

13. ==> Does America Need a National Divorce? This Guest Says Yes

Americans are more divided than they have been in decades, and author Taylor Woodruff blames Democrats whom he feels have abandoned God, country, civility and the Constitution. He also is convinced that the only solution is for the country to undergo a “divorce.” “There are dueling platforms of morality within our culture that cannot coexist or compromise with each other,” he says. “There are traditional morals and values in one area, and secular morals and values in another. There cannot ever be unity between the two platforms of morality. The only way to remedy this is to divide as a nation.” He is the author of “The Case for National Divorce, One Christian’s Perspective.” Contact Taylor Woodruff at (252) 888-5892; twoodruff@rtirguests.com

14. ==> Can This Hypnotherapist Really Talk to Aliens?

Dozens of people suspect they have been visited by an alien, but do you know anyone personally who has conversed with one? Hypnotherapist and author Kryste Andrews recounts a year of gathering information from a Gray, one of the 81 extraterrestrial species currently acknowledged by experts. Working weekly with her client, former champion weightlifter Robert Nanez, Kryste was introduced to the Gray whom Robert met at the age of five. “Under hypnosis, we’ve uncovered the truth for Robert and can now share his story with the world,” she says. “His bravery may help others who suspect they are undergoing physical and emotional manipulation by aliens.” Kryste (pronounced Christy) spent 30 years as a performer/singing instructor in New York City where she prepared young singers for Broadway and international stages. Her work as a certified hypnotherapist began in 1994. She is the author of the critically acclaimed book “LEGACY Book One, Discovery: A Remote Time Viewer’s Journey to His Ancestors.” Contact Kryste Andrews at (201) 801-4551; Kandrews@rtirguests.com
