=======================================

1. ==> Trump is Wrong: Trade Wars Are Not Good

The latest round of tariffs on $300 billion of Chinese
goods imposed by President Trump last week has
seriously rattled world markets. The Chinese currency
has now depreciated against the dollar, sending stock
markets into a tailspin. Trump and Treasury Secretary
Steven Mnuchin charge China with currency manipulation,
but Jeffrey Sachs says that’s ridiculous. “The only
economic manipulation here is Trump’s. His tariffs have
caused gratuitous and serious damage to the US economy,
the world economy and the global trading system.” He
says, “When Trump launched his trade wars last year, he
boasted, ‘Trade wars are good, and easy to win.’ Far
from achieving new trade agreements with China and the
EU, Trump has undermined business confidence and cross-
border investments. Trade wars are bad, and easy to
lose. In fact, everybody is losing. It’s time to end
Trump’s serious trade blunders.” Jeffrey Sachs is a
professor and director of the Center for Sustainable
Development at Columbia University. A syndicated
columnist, his monthly newspaper columns appear in more
than 100 countries. Contact him at sachs@columbia.edu;

2. ==> Dems are Wrong: Socialism is Not Better

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 is 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

3. ==> The Hong Kong Crisis Explained

Flights resumed at Hong Kong’s airport Wednesday after
two days of disruptions marked by outbursts of violence
that highlight the hardening positions of pro-democracy
protesters and the authorities in the semi-autonomous
Chinese city. What are the protests about and why are
they now growing? Will Beijing use force against
protesters? Why does Hong Kong matter to China? Is the
situation hopeless for protestors? Jerome Cohen will
answer your questions. A long-time adjunct senior
fellow for Asia Studies at the Council on Foreign
Relations, he’s an expert on law in East Asia. He
serves as codirector of NYU’s U.S.-Asia Law Institute
and currently teaches courses on topics including
China’s legal tradition and law and society in China.

4. ==> 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 is headed to Poland later this month
for the 75th Anniversary of the Liquidation of the Lodz
Ghetto. She’ll 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

5. ==> Need Comic Relief? British Comedian Clive Anderson

British comedian Clive Anderson rose to fame as the
host of the long-running improv comedy series Whose
Line Is It Anyway (which inspired the American version
hosted by Drew Carey). Winner of the British Comedy
Award, his career included stand-up comedy, script
writing and hosting several shows including the BAFTAs,
Britain’s equivalent of the Academy Awards. Now, Clive
brings his trademark deadpan wit to Smithsonian
Channel’s Mystic Britain, in which he and
anthropologist Mary-Ann Ochota explore the strange
mysteries and supernatural beliefs of Britain’s past –
with stories about mummies, demons, witches and
wizards. Clive can discuss some of the bizarre findings
he’s encountered on his journeys and share what’s
coming up on the mysterious, yet funny, new series.

6. ==> 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

7. ==> TV Helicopter Cameraman Rescues Missing People from the Air

As a TV helicopter cameraman, David Arnold has an
exciting job. Sometimes that means shooting the Super
Bowl high above the stadium, sometimes it’s hovering
above the sea where Deadliest Catch is being filmed.
And sometimes it’s when he uses his vantage point to
rescue people lost in the wilderness. Interview David,
who is currently nominated for two Emmys in best
cinematography, to learn about the people he has
rescued and the open cases he is currently working on.
He can also share tips for avoiding getting lost and
finding missing loved ones. David is the author of two
“Help From Above” books. Contact him at (818) 275-8676;

8. ==> Wine in a Can? Fun Summer Wine Show

Whether your listeners are wine connoisseurs or stumble
over the word “sommelier,” Certified Wine Educator
James Laughren offers a non-technical, non-geeky,
unintimidating exploration of the joy and pleasures of
wine. As the author of “50 Ways to Love Wine More:
Adventures in Wine Appreciation,” Jim is ready to
uncork some fun on your program as he demystifies the
mystery of wine and removes the snooty intimidation
factor. He’ll discuss the new canned wine craze, how to
choose the perfect summer rose for your next barbeque,
and ways to get more out of your next winery visit. Jim
is the past president of a wine importing and
distribution company and is known for his fun and
irreverent wine classes and seminars. He is also the
author of “A Beer Drinker’s Guide to Knowing and
Enjoying Fine Wine.” Contact him at (954) 317-9623;
JLaughren@rtirguests.com

9. ==> How to Have Sustainable Summer Fun

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 and is the author of “Our Peaceful
Planet: Healing Ourselves and the World for a
Sustainable Future.” Contact Yasmin at
YDavar@rtirguests.com

10. ==> Confessions of a Badass Widow

After the death of her long-time husband and business
partner, Katherine Webster faced financial ruin,
loneliness, trauma and many other overwhelming
challenges. But, she says, she made a choice and
learned the lesson of a lifetime; a life lived without
danger is meaningless. “I turned my awful circumstances
into a situation where I became more vibrant, fearless,
confident, successful… and younger!” Katherine will
share three key questions that can help redefine life
after a tragedy along with simple yet powerful tools
for rebuilding your life and becoming more youthful and
passionate about living after the death of a spouse, or
virtually any personal tragedy. She adds, “Personal
tragedy allows you the luxury most other people will
never have: an opportunity to enjoy the self-indulgent
business of completely re-inventing yourself as
whatever or whomever you choose to be.” Katherine
Webster is a nonapologetic, badass entrepreneur and the
author of “Becoming Madam Widow.” Contact her at
KWebster@rtirguests.com or (484) 296-8759.

11. ==> One Incredible Act Links Jesus, Moses, Buddha, and Muhammad

Many world religions have had their core concepts
shaped by individuals that undertook one unusual
practice—a practice still available today. Can you
guess what it is? At a time when differences between
religious groups seem so wide, interview Sparrow Hart
to learn the impactful, life-changing events that link
these spiritual leaders together. Sparrow will point
out that Christ and the Biblical prophets went to the
desert to fast; Buddha went to the forest; Moses
eschewed sustenance and climbed Mount Sinai to commune
with God; while Mohammed received his great vision
while fasting in a cave. All of these incidents are
examples of vision quests. Sparrow will explain the
three elements involved in every vision quest and what
modern people do on their quests. Sparrow has spent
over 700 days of his life in the Gila Wilderness alone
and regularly leads vision quests. He is the author of
several books including “Letters to the River: A Guide
to a Dream Worth Living.” Contact him at (801)
516-0740; SHart@rtirguests.com

12. ==> 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

13. ==> Sex Secrets from the Bible

For many people, talking about sex is taboo. And to
bring it up in church would be unthinkable. But former
Baptist minister and marriage coach John Wilder says
God wants couples to have great sex, the problem is,
they just don’t know how. Wilder is the author of “Sex
Education for Adults: Secrets to Amazing Sex and
Happily Ever After Too.” Invite him on your show and
learn what the Bible has to say about sex (that you’ll
never hear in church), the real reason many couples
don’t have satisfactory, never mind super, sex lives,
and how couples can finally stop fighting… for good. A
former preacher and host of his own radio show, Wilder
has also been a guest on numerous radio and TV outlets.
Outspoken and candid, he brings a new paradigm to
solving marriage problems by teaching sexuality and
conflict resolution skills to couples. Ask John about
his upcoming 4-hour mass marriage seminars and why
another marriage counselor credits his book with saving
his own marriage. Contact John Wilder at (904)
655-2175; marriagecoach1@yahoo.com

14. ==> 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

15. ==> 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)
334-3853; njohnson@rtirguests.com

16. ==> 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.”

17. ==> Success in 7 Steps

It’s been said that knowing what you want is half the
battle, but there’s still a lot more left to achieving
your goals! After 30 years in business and over a
decade in researching, Steve McNicholas has discovered
7 essential ‘code blocks’ that underpin success,
achievement and winning… in business and life! He’ll
discuss the fundamental themes of ownership, purpose,
systems and mindset and share how when applied in
sequence, tremendous personal and professional success,
happiness and fulfilment can follow. Steve says,
“Understanding and applying these 7 blocks enables a
sequence and pattern—effectively the ‘source code’ of
success—to kick in and enable individuals, teams or
even businesses to win at whatever it is they are
focused on.” Steve McNicholas’ new book “Unlocking the
SUCCESS Code: The 7 Step Process to Succeed in Life and
Work” is the culmination of 10+ years of research,
application, learning and interviewing many of the
leading names in personal and business development.

18. ==> Could You Forgive Parents Who Abused You?

Many people have bad childhoods. But what makes Wade
Meadows remarkable is how he was able to forgive both
parents, his mentally unstable mother who constantly
reminded him that he was worthless because he was born
on Friday the 13th and his workaholic father who was
unable to protect him. Invite Wade on air to explain
how he was able to open his heart when his mother
needed a caregiver, how he manages to live a hopeful
life despite a chaotic childhood and how he was able to
break his family’s cycle of abuse to raise happy,
successful children and be a loving marriage partner.
Wade is the author of “Letters from the Ashes” and
“Ashes Forged into Manhood.” Contact him at (225)

19. ==> This Medium Helps with Loss, Grief and Disappointment

We know there are many types of loss — and millions of
us worldwide are experiencing life interruptions and
even grief. The worst can be losing a loved one to
death, divorce, accidents, war or estrangement. Or we

Do deceased loved ones send us consoling messages? Why
does she say “to understand life we must understand
death?” Contact Beth at (484) 705-2818;
BLynch@rtirguests.com

20. ==> 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
is actually alive and living on the streets of
Philadelphia. He does everything in his power to find
her, rescue her, and love her…. even after she spits in
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
rejection and fear. This wonderful human-interest story
is also the tale of another mother—the one who took him
in, raised him, hid the truth from him – but eventually
gave him the information and the courage he needed to
go on the search of a lifetime! Marty Vargas, MFA, is a
media owner, author, and a sought-after International
speaker. He has spoken to millions and has been

=======================================

1. ==> How Serious is White Nationalism?

“Even at the height of the Global War on Terrorism, the
FBI’s strategic plan identified ‘lone wolf’ violence by
‘right wing extremists, espousing anti-government or
racist sentiment’ as a salient domestic terrorist
threat,” says terrorism expert Bruce Hoffman. “But
given the rise of violent white nationalism, the
growing traction of far-right extremism, and the power
of twenty-first-century communications platforms, the
threat is evolving rapidly.” Hoffman can discuss how
the UK took signal action by banning the neo-Nazi
National Action Group in 2016 and New Zealand
authorities demonstrated how governments can quickly
intervene to restrict the spread of propaganda online.
He says, “As with any threat to society, a balance must
be struck between the preservation of free and open
expression and the protection citizens expect from
authorities.” Bruce Hoffman is Shelby Cullom and
Kathryn W. Davis senior fellow for counterterrorism and
homeland security at the Council on Foreign Relations
and has been studying terrorism and insurgency for four
decades. Contact him at (202) 509-8508;
bhoffman@cfr.org

2. ==> It’s Time to Talk about Guns

There are more public mass shootings in America than in
any other country in the world and this weekend’s
massacres have renewed debates about gun control.
Rebecca Peters helped lead the campaign to reform
Australia’s gun laws in the 1990s. She says, “The
evidence is clear. If guns made a country safer, the
U.S. would be the safest country in the industrialized
world. But the opposite is true. Per capita, you are
six times more likely to be murdered in the U.S. than
in Australia, and 25 times more likely to be murdered
with a gun.” She says racist extremism and thwarted
masculinity are not particular to the U.S., but “all
other countries that recognize the danger are
responding logically with measures to limit the damage
that racist extremists can do – by strengthening their
gun laws. Semi-automatic weapons are a product
manufactured specifically for killing large numbers of
people. Yet the U.S. is the only nation whose
policymakers insist on making this product easily
available, even when it is used again and again to do
just that: slaughter human beings because of cultural
differences or personal slights.” Peters is the former
director of the International Action Network on Small
Arms. Contact her at rebecca.peters101@gmail.com

3. ==> Are We Normalizing Violence and Hate?

In the aftermath of this weekend’s mass shootings,
former President Barack Obama is calling on Americans
to “soundly reject language coming out of the mouths of
any of our leaders that feeds a climate of fear and
hatred or normalizes racist sentiments.” President
Trump continues to call himself “the least racist
person’ on earth, but his Tweets and comments don’t
align with his personal assessment. Invite clinical
psychologist Shannon Curry Psy.D., MSCP to explain how
a person in authority can normalize deviant hateful
acts so they no longer seem extreme or unusual and what
should—and can—be done about it. She’ll share ways to
tackle the mounting fear that occurs following these
violent events while also protecting against apathy.
Dr. Curry can also discuss how traumatic experiences
short-circuit the brain, the lasting effects of trauma,
and the psychological state of a shooter’s mind and how
the everyday person can detect the danger they pose.
Dr. Shannon Curry provides counseling services to many
associated and affiliated with correctional facilities.
She heads the Curry Psychological Group in CA. Contact
Cherie Kerr at (714) 550-9900; (714) 271-2140;

4. ==> Are Mass Murderers Formed in the Crib?

Over the weekend, Americans were shocked again by mass
murders with high death tolls in Dayton, Ohio, and El
Paso, Texas, carried out by men in their twenties. As a
nation, we continue to grapple with why these incidents
happen. However, many people are being told that mental
health issues cause this horrible violence. Media
veteran and child-rearing expert Emily Slingluff can
discuss ways to influence children’s formative years
toward happiness instead of hatred and despair. Emily
is the author of multiple books and articles about
parenting. She was named The Fulltime Homemaker of the
Year for the State of Virginia by Phyllis Schlafly and
Eagle Forum shortly after her first book, “A Present to
the Newborn,” came out. She is a graduate of Sweet
Briar College with a degree in government and economics
and was an assistant editor of The Virginian-Pilot.

from the Air

As a TV helicopter cameraman, David Arnold has an
exciting job. Sometimes that means shooting the Super
Bowl high above the stadium, sometimes it’s hovering
above the sea where Deadliest Catch is being filmed.
And sometimes it’s when he uses his vantage point to

6. ==> New Charges Against R. Kelly: Will He Go to
Jail?

Singer R. Kelly faces new charges, this time in
Minnesota where he’s accused of engaging in
prostitution with a person under 18. The Minnesota
indictment is just the latest in a tangle of charges
against Kelly, who’s faced accusations of abuse and
manipulation of underage girls and women for more than
20 years. 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.

7. ==> College Send-Off Blues: Ten Tips to Make the
College Transition Better (for Everyone!)

This month nearly 20 million students will head off to
college. The transition generates excitement and
anxiety for both students and their parents.
“Transition depression is a real concern,” says Lindy
Schneider, a college advisor and coauthor of “College
Secrets of Highly Successful People.” Invite Lindy and
her husband/coauthor Tom to share simple tips that can
lessen the send-off blues and help families enjoy this
new phase of life. Lindy and Tom Schneider are
professional college advisors who have helped thousands
of college students over the past 15 years. They have
been featured on ABC, CBS, NBC, Fox and in many
national publications. Contact Lindy Schneider at (602)
562-8669; lschneider@rtirguests.com

8. ==> When Students Have Back-to-School Anxiety

With the new school year, millions of students (of all
ages — from elementary grades through college) will
experience worries, nervousness, and outright anxiety.
Perhaps those students are concerned about challenging
new studies or unfamiliar classrooms, or demanding
teachers, or bullies they’ll encounter, or new sports
they are trying, or money they’ll need. The list of
back-to-school anxieties goes on and on. Audiences will
thank you for interviewing psychotherapist Elke Scholz,
who’s prepared with advice for students, their parents
and educators at every level. She’ll explore how the
beginning of the new school year can impact the entire
family, and how school anxiety can be triggered and
tamed. Expect to hear about simple activities that
encourage confidence and calm, ultimately helping
students throughout their academic lives and for
overall wellness, concentration and upbeat mood. The
latest books by Elke Scholz include “Loving Your Life”
and “Anxiety Warrior” volumes 1 and 2. Contact Elke at

9. ==> Why Kids Should Make Up their Own Homework

Every September kindergarteners start school and love
it. So why is it that each year after that more and
more students hate school – until high school, when
only a few actually love coming to school and love
learning? This problem is easier to fix than you think!
“There are so many ways to create a perfect school,”
says Lee Jenkins, a career educator with a passion for
improving student learning in school. “From giving
students choice in how to do homework to creating a
team feel in every classroom, where they are more
interested in outperforming their own best work instead
of competing with each other… it works! And it works
FAST!” In fact, teachers using Lee’s method are seeing
an increase in classroom learning by six times the
national average! The key is for students to be in an
environment where they both work hard and love their
learning. Lee Jenkins has been an educator and
administrator both in public schools and universities.
The author of “How to Create a Perfect School” speaks
primarily to educators but his message to parents is

10. ==> Will Your Favorite Sea Birds Be Lost to Climate
Change?

We’ve all heard that warming seas, melting icebergs,
and plastic in the ocean are wreaking havoc on sea
creatures. But most of us do not think about their
effect on seabirds that add so much beauty to our
visits to the beach and are an important part of our
ecosystem. That’s why we need to hear the message of
author and illustrator Lynn Matuskuoka. Just as she
does in “Saving Our Seabirds,” Lynn can talk about the
thousands of species threatened by climate change and
share fascinating facts about such birds as puffins,
blue-footed boobies, and black-footed albatrosses. For
example, did you know that puffins can hold up to 60
tiny fish in their beaks at once and can spend more
than ten years with the same mate? Lynn can also share
ways ordinary people can help save the birds. She is
donating part of the sales for her adult coloring book
to the Audubon Society’s Project Puffin. Lynn is well-
known internationally for her drawings & paintings of
Japan’s Sumo wrestlers and her worldwide TV color
commentary of the sport. Contact her at (808) 479-5966

11. ==> Health Hacks to Beat Text-Neck

We love our smartphones and tablets, but health
professionals say they’re causing an epidemic of ‘text-
neck’ among adults and children. Nathalie Beauchamp,
D.C., IFMCP, an Ottawa-based doctor of chiropractic and
certified functional medicine practitioner with the
Institute of Functional Medicine, says looking down at
your device for hours at a time changes the position of
your head and neck, causing poor posture. She’ll
explain how that can lead to health problems like
headaches, a flattened spinal curve, disc damage,
muscle damage and reduced blood flow to the brain.
Invite her on your show and learn what your head has in
common with a bowling ball, ways to use your phone that
are kind to your spine and hacks to help compensate for
a sedentary life, like standing desks, walking meetings
and scheduling time to move. Dr. Nathalie Beauchamp has
appeared on numerous radio and TV programs and writes
about health and wellness for a variety of
publications. She has her own YouTube channel and is
the founder of the weekly “What the Hack?!” podcast.
Dr. Beauchamp’s latest book is “Hack Your Health
Habits: Simple Action-Driven, Natural Health Solutions
for People On the Go!” Contact her at (206) 905 9720;

12. ==> The Growing Attack on America’s Beef Industry

Most Americans are unaware of the ongoing assault on
the American beef industry—and their personal dietary
choices—led by such entities as the World Wildlife
Fund, the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the United
Nations Environment Program. So says Tom DeWeese,
president of the American Policy Center, a grassroots
action and education foundation dedicated to the
promotion of free enterprise and limited government
regulations over commerce and individuals. DeWeese says
that while their stated goal is to produce a better
grade of beef, their true intention is to ban beef
altogether. Surprisingly, he adds, the National
Cattlemen’s Beef Association is allowing this to
happen. “The reality is it’s not going to go away
because the goal is not environmental protection,
rather the destruction of their industry and control
through what the U.N. calls the reorganization of human
society.” Tom DeWeese is a speaker and property rights
advocate who has debated at Cambridge University. He is
the author of many books including, “Sustainable: The
WAR on Free Enterprise, Private Property and
Individuals.” DeWeese has been featured by Fox News,
the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, the
Washington Post and other media nationwide. Contact him

13. ==> What’s Your Compulsive Habit? And How to Stop
it!

Just about everyone has an addiction or a compulsive
habit that controls their behavior and their choices.
One out of three persons is overtly addicted to
something – like alcohol or drugs. But did you know
that virtually two out of three persons is covertly
addicted to something? And they may not even realize
it! Subtle behaviors like gossiping, judging others,
people pleasing, shopping and working can all be
compulsive. Interview Michael McGee, MD, about the
science of habit and his “Good now, Bad later”
philosophy to help your audience figure out if they
have compulsive habits and what to do about them! Dr.
McGee trained at Stanford and Harvard Medical Schools
and has helped hundreds of patients beat their
addictions. He is the author of “The Joy of Recovery:
The New 12 Step Guide to Recovery from Addiction.”

14. ==> His Grandfather was the Prince of New York

Prince Serge Obolensky was known as the “Prince of New
York.” Born a Russian Prince in 1890, he married a
Russian princess, escaped to England from the
Bolsheviks with a price on his head, immigrated to the
US with his second wife Alice Astor – an American
princess – in 1924, and reigned supreme at the St.
Regis Hotel in Manhattan working for Vincent Astor who
asked him to help restore the grand hotel. In 1931, at
the age of 53, Serge joined the Commandos under “Wild
Bill” Donovan and completed two successful missions
parachuting into Nazi-occupied Europe. Ivan Obolensky,
Serge’s grandson, has fond memories of meeting his
legendary grandfather for lunch at the St. Regis… and
has many amazing true stories to relate, not only about
his grandfather but also the Astors and American
aristocratic life at that time. Ivan Obolensky is a
true Renaissance man in his own right. He’s the author
of “Eye of the Moon.” Contact Ivan at (818) 495-8731;

15. ==> God Wants You to Have Great Sex

For many people, talking about sex is taboo. And to
bring it up in church would be unthinkable. But former
Baptist minister and marriage coach John Wilder says
God wants couples to have great sex, the problem is,
they just don’t know how. Wilder is the author of “Sex
Education for Adults: Secrets to Amazing Sex and
Happily Ever After Too.” Invite him on your show and
learn what the Bible has to say about sex (that you’ll
never hear in church), the real reason many couples
don’t have satisfactory, never mind super sex lives,
and how couples can finally stop fighting… for good.
John Wilder brings a new paradigm to marriage problems
by teaching sexuality and conflict resolution skills to
his clients. Ask John about his upcoming mass marriage
seminars and why another marriage counselor told him
that his book saved his own marriage. Contact John
Wilder at (904) 655-2175; marriagecoach1@yahoo.com

16. ==> This Guest’s Outdoor Adventures Will Give You
Shivers

Most of us have never experienced the natural world the
way Sparrow Hart has. For example, who can say that
they have been charged by bears and has close
encounters with mountain lions? Or stuck around and
sung to a rattlesnake they unexpectedly encountered?
Who spent 700 days in the wilderness alone or got lost
in a canyon five times the size of the Grand Canyon?
Sparrow has done all that and more. He’ll share why he
says today’s man feels alone, isolated, and estranged
from the great rhythms of nature. An entertaining
storyteller, he can reveal how all of us can appreciate
nature more this summer and discover who we are in the
process. Sparrow has had a varied career that includes
being a Phi Beta Kappa at Stanford, working in a
slaughterhouse and leading men’s programs and vision
quests in nature. He is the author of several books
including “Letters to the River: A Guide to a Dream
Worth Living.” Contact him at (801) 516-0740;

17. ==> How Ordinary People Can Help Save the World
from Its Biggest Threats

Scientists, generals, politicians, doctors,
environmentalists and economists warn that in the next
decade or two, doom may come in the form of climate
change, overpopulation, pollution, terrorism, and
nuclear war—all huge problems by themselves and
catastrophic when taken together. But there are steps
ordinary people can take before the world reaches these
devastating tipping points, says Lyle Benjamin, a
lifelong entrepreneur, activist, optimist, and creator
of Planned Acts of Kindness, a global social
responsibility initiative designed for the age of
technology. He’ll explain the program and how it
encourages participation with daily text messages, and
how your show can help spread the word and your
audience can participate. Benjamin says, “If we are to
survive as a species and have a chance at quality of
life, we need to have tens of millions of people around
the world working together on planned acts of kindness
with the ability to mobilize instantly.” Benjamin
created the Host & Post outreach program for bloggers,
news outlets, organizations and companies to easily
post the daily Planned Acts of Kindness on their
networks. Lyle Benjamin was the publisher of a national
self-help magazine on relationship issues, created a
best-selling board game, and owned a successful meeting
and event-planning business based in New York City. He
created a 501(c)3 educational not-for-profit and has

18. ==> Put The Clothes Back on Your Audience — And
Become a Better Speaker

You’re in front of a group, with key info to share, but
you need to get over your own nerves and apprehension.
First of all — you do NOT need to imagine your
audience naked! That old chestnut never works. You’ll
want your presentation, confidence and message to wow
everyone instead. So says communications and leadership
expert Jill Jaysen who will reveal on your show how
we’ve all been mis-taught when it comes to public
speaking, and what really makes a dynamite presentation
for winning big. Watch ratings climb when Jaysen
shares: Why gimmicks like “practice at a mirror” and
“videotape yourself” only risk creating mediocre
speakers who zap their own innate charisma. How the
speech truly starts long before you reach the podium.
Plus, amazing truths about NLP for enhancing your
speaking prowess. And how to prevent the biggest
speaking turn-offs. Contact Jill Jaysen at

19. ==> What Was Last Night’s Dream All About?

From terrifying nightmares to ridiculous romps with
crazy characters and bizarre locations, your nightly
adventures aren’t random at all. They reveal a lot
about what’s going on in your life, but deciphering
them can be confusing, to say the least. Dream analyst
Layne Dalfen says your dreams are actually
conversations you have with yourself about specific
current issues in your life. She says, “The solution
you’re looking for about what (or who) in your life is
bugging you this week will appear in your unconscious
mind before it gets to your conscious. Dream analysis
gives you the power to decide how you want to respond
to people and situations in your life.” Dalfen will
teach listeners a step-by-step method to decode those
dreams and use the knowledge to help make decisions and
deal with difficult situations. Layne Dalfen teaches
dream analysis to counselling students at Concordia
University in Montreal. She’s appeared on hundreds of
radio shows and podcasts and loves call-in programs

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

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.

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

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;

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

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;

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

=======================================
1. ==> Dissecting the Democratic Debates

The overflowing pool of 20+ Democrats is about to narrow, based on this week’s Democratic debates. Communication expert Paul Hellman can discuss how the candidates did—both their content and their presence— who took advantage of the opening seconds, who was especially nimble on their feet, and ultimately, who stood out. And he can share insights about how anyone, even if not running for president, can present themselves more effectively. Paul Hellman consults and speaks internationally on how to make your point—so you get heard, get remembered and get results. His columns and advice have appeared in the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, CNBC.com and on public radio’s Marketplace and CNN’s Business Unusual.

2. ==> Fed Cuts Rates for First Time in a Decade

The Federal Reserve on Wednesday lowered interest rates for the first time since the Great Recession in 2008 to help stave off the possibility of an economic downturn. Interest rates, which affect the cost of borrowing for credit cards and mortgages, are now set to hover between 2% and 2.25%. Corporate investment strategist Chris Macke is available to discuss the move, whether he believes the small rate cut will help maintain the currently robust economy, and what the cut means to the average consumer. Macke has advised the Chicago and Washington, D.C. districts of
the U.S. Federal Reserve and the largest U.S. pension fund, CalPERS with more than $300 billion in assets. He currently guides research and investment strategy for a $10 billion institutional
investment manager. Macke is also the author of “Solutionomics.” Contact Johanna Ramos Boyer at (703) 646-5137; (703) 400-1099 (cell); johanna@jrbcomm.com or Erin Bolden at (703) 646-5188.

3. ==> How the Gender Pay Gap Affects Everyone – Even Men

Thanks to Megan Rapinoe and the U.S. Women’s National Soccer Team, gender pay equality has been having a moment in the news. But is that just a symptom of something greater and will it go anywhere? Interview Lorri Craig for an eye-opening look at why promoting parity of gender pay and promotions are good for everyone—men, women, children, and corporations. Armed with the statistics to prove it, Lorri will also say that corporations with the most gender diversity on their executive teams are 21 percent more likely to have above-average profits. Lorri, who is
accustomed to being the only woman in a room full of male executives, can share why companies that don’t have a good handle on women’s diversity of thought are missing out on a growth market bigger than India and China combined. Lorri is a Certified Financial Planner with a master’s degree in finance. She offers a workshop called “Is Your Organization Ready to Step Up to Radical Gender Diversification?” Contact Lorri at (484) 453-1742; LCraig@rtirguests.com

5. ==> It’s National Simplify Your Life Week (8/1-8/7)

Whatever happened to those lazy, hazy days of summer? Ever wish you didn’t feel so overwhelmed and busy that you become paralyzed? Even the dog days of summer have become a race to the finish! Instead of having the summer to regroup and get refreshed, most families find they need a “vacation from their vacation!” Instead of heading into a new school year raring to go – most families feel overwhelmed and stressed out. The first week of August is National Simplify Your Life week and a great time to interview Jennifer Cochern, LCPC, and learn how to truly get refreshed before Labor Day Weekend! She will show you how to notice what’s most important to you and your family based on your values and purpose. She’ll teach your audience how to say three of the most important words in the English language (No, thank you) and how that phrase can empower you (and your kids!) to start living a simpler, more authentic life.

6. ==> Kids Driving You Crazy? It Could Be Your Anxiety

Your kids are acting like feral cats. They won’t listen. They fight and raise your blood pressure. It’s not their fault. It’s your body’s chemical reaction to stress that is adding to their bad behavior, and it’s also why you may be experiencing real pain. Noted spine surgeon Dr. David Hanscom will explain the connection between anxiety and surges of body chemicals, and reveal how you can train your body to control these surges– even when the stress comes from your kids. Hanscom, author of “Back in Control: A Surgeon’s Roadmap Out of Chronic Pain” will share research-based evidence and information about the direct connection between stress, the body’s chemistry and physical pain. He’ll also discuss how Western medicine’s answer to stress has led to drug abuse, gratuitous surgeries and just plain bad-doctoring for adults and kids alike. An in-demand speaker and talk-show guest, including The Dr. Oz Show and Fox News, Hanscom will change the way you react to stressful situations – getting your audience back on track to really enjoy parenting. Contact him dhanscom@rtirguests.com; (206) 890-1892.

7. ==> Career Moves Teachers (and All Professionals) Should Know

This month countless teachers are gearing up to return to work. Unfortunately, many are making their plans with dread and despair. Interview Geraldine Hogan to discover surprising realities
about why teachers and other professionals remain in their current (demanding) jobs, even when they know it’s time for a change. Hogan’s insights, advice, and been-there experience can help anyone — whether in teaching or other areas of expertise — escape a career rut and recognize promising leads. She’ll discuss everything from overcoming seemingly difficult moves to why a bigger salary is not the primary reason why such a huge number of teachers have left the profession.

David Kottler, the Insurance Doctor ™, says the recent Transamerica COI Settlement is a big WIN for insurance companies and a big LOSS for policy holders. Invite him on your show and learn what’s going on with the settlement, what it means to the average policy holder, and what consumers can do to protect themselves from insurance companies that are illegally raising their mortality costs. David Kottler combines his legal and business experience with a passion for philanthropy. His book “The Best Kept Money Secret in Your Insurance Policy” details everything
your audience needs to know to get their insurance policies working for them and generating cash! Contact David Kottler at (216) 532-1221; DKottler@rtirguests.com

9. ==> Does it Pay to Be Ethical in Business? In Life?

What does it really mean to be ethical in business and in life? Today people are living in a grey area, an area that blurs the lines between right and wrong, ethical and unethical. Would you know fraud if you saw it? At work or in yourself? Interview John Smith, an ordinary guy who unwittingly got caught up in the 1980’s S&L crisis and found out the hard way that you don’t have to commit a crime to be convicted of one. “Most people are unaware of what fraud actually is so it’s overlooked and people remain unaware of illegal activity around them. We all need to know
exactly what fraud is, how it happens, why it happens and how to avoid it!” says John. Smith is a professional speaker who shares his gripping story and the consequences of ethical and unethical behavior. His book “Embracing the Abyss” chronicles his true story of unknowingly becoming a part of a fraud scandal and receiving a presidential pardon. Contact John Smith at (214) 216-2199; JSmith@rtirguests.com

10. ==> Incompetent, Reckless, Smug — Does That Spell the IRS?

It’s one thing to hate and even fear the powerful entity that takes a sizable chunk of your hard-earned money. But according to tax expert Richard Green — who used to be one of the Internal
Revenue Service’s own — it’s the abuses and pompous approach of the IRS that should get you really angry. Find out more from this former agent, who contends that we should be talking about (and opposing!) the recklessness of the IRS year-round. As your guest, Green will explore: disparaging reports and Congressional investigations on the IRS we hear about every month … whether most audits are UNFAIR to taxpayers … stark realities about the slow-moving IRS staff and antiquated technology causing chaos and wastefulness nationwide … why it’s only getting worse, and what you can do. Only someone like Green, who’s seen it firsthand, can blow the whistle on the IRS mess! Richard Green has authored “Agents of Deceit.” Contact him at (909) 570-1509; rgreen@rtirguests.com

11. ==> The Biggest Real Estate Investment Myth

A lot of people who go into the complex world of real estate investing are convinced that they can get the most bang for their buck by buying, renovating and then selling properties, a process known as flipping. But long-time real estate and property renovation expert Dan Lieberman claims that this is not a recipe for success. ” You take on a lot of risk if housing prices go down,” he says. “That’s why it’s a good idea to get into the rental market. With rentals, you have ongoing income, even in a bad real estate market.” Dan has many years of experience successfully developing rental properties. He can share the secrets to developing rental properties, getting the best rent and attracting the nicest tenants so that you have a great source of ongoing income. He’s the author of “The Effective Landlord: How Owners and Property Managers Can Attract Better Tenants, Raise Rents, and Boost Their Bottom Line in Any Market.” Contact Dan at DLieberman@rtirguests.com.com; (510) 570-1368.

12. ==> Do a Show on Hollywood’s Forgotten Female Filmmakers

While female directors are not given their due in Hollywood, this wasn’t always the case. “In Episode 3 of my TV series ‘Kailin Gow’s Go Girl Food, Travel, and Lost History,’ I talk about the lack of women directors in Hollywood,” says Kailin Gow. “But what’s fascinating is that the earliest pioneers of filmmaking in Hollywood were women who wrote and directed many silent films. When films started making money and being profitable, that’s when many men entered filmmaking and turned it into a big industry. The pioneer women filmmakers were forgotten and left behind.” Kailin can share how women can break through the glass ceiling in this and other male-dominated industries. She is a director/filmmaker and the founder of Sparklesoup Inc. and an internationally recognized, multi-award-winning bestselling author who has sold over 5.5 million books. Contact Kailin at KGow@rtirguests.com; (617) 582-2121.

13. ==> How Far Would You Go to Promote Your Spouse’s Legacy?

Many people love their spouses very much. But few will devote themselves to preserving that spouse’s legacy after they pass away. Marguerite Berrah—who prefers to be called Mrs. Berrah—finds herself in that rare position. She is the wife of the late Ghoulem Berrah, whose considerable accomplishments include being a freedom fighter, working as a diplomat, promoter of world peace and physician and scientist credited with a DNA breakthrough. Invite Mrs. Berrah to share some of her husband’s adventures contained in his memoir, “A Dream for Peace,” and how their 40-year-marriage clicked despite him being a Muslim and her being a Catholic. You might also ask her about her husband’s secret Paris meeting with PLO Yasser Arafat’s senior advisor Isam Sartawi and the Israeli Council for Israeli-Palestinian Peace, the famous people Ghoulem met, his work promoting religious tolerance and the foundation that bears his name. Contact Marguerite Berrah at (305) 933-6088; berrahghoulem@icloud.com

14. ==> Raise Emotionally Healthy Kids – Without Driving Yourself Crazy

News alert! Children are not small adults. They don’t think or act like adults. They’re not supposed to. So, as parents, don’t drive yourself bonkers trying to make that happen. Rather, as parents responsible for guiding youth towards becoming adults, let’s first help them become happy, responsible, and emotionally healthy children (especially as the new school year begins). So says Paul Bernabei, acclaimed author of “Top 20 Parents” and four other books on human development. Interview Paul to discover practical and essential strategies for managing challenges of the parenting journey. He will help countless appreciative moms and dads arrive at their most desirable destination. Paul will help us understand what’s going on inside ourselves so we can better develop the potential that is within our children. Invite call-in questions and parenting insights/concerns to explore.

15. ==> Cowgirl Camp: Women Wrangling Their Best Lives

Like many women over 40, Sandra Matheson found herself at a daunting crossroads. She was divorced, unable to continue her career as a veterinarian due to work-related chemical sensitivities and stuck with a money-losing farm. But she managed to turn lemons into lemonade by focusing on rebuilding her farm, which became a metaphor for her life. “Just as a farmer grows crops, you can make the choice to grow your dreams after 40,” she says. “The main focus has to be on silencing your ‘inner critic.’ Growing your life will take some work. However, the fruits of that
harvest are well worth it. ” Sandra is a co-host of the New Cowgirl Camps, which teach women about farming and ranching, the next of which is set for Aug. 26-30 in Cheney, Wash. She is also the author of the upcoming book “Thrive After 40: How to Seize the Life of Your Dreams!” Contact Sandra at smatheson@rtirguests.com; (360) 325-4221

16. ==> From Living in the Worst Housing Project to a Life of Accomplishment

No one expected much from Christopher L. Hall. After all, his mother was an alcoholic, his father was in jail, he lived in one of the worst housing projects in Los Angeles and he was a runaway who stole a motorcycle. But Hall defied the odds. Invite him on air to discuss what happened when he was 14 that set him on the path to dental school, medical school, and the
military. Today he is an ER doctor in Mississippi even as one of his brothers sits in federal prison serving the equivalent of a life sentence. Now a role model and leader, Hall can inspire other young people to realize that it isn’t where you start in life that matters, it’s where you end up. Contact him at (251) 207-7527; chall@rtirguests.com

17. ==> Have You Met Your Inner Genius?

When it comes to achieving success and happiness in life, most people focus on external factors and circumstances such as skills, luck, hard work and intelligence in an attempt to attain their goals. But Intuition expert Kim Chestney claims that we are going about this all wrong. “We all have an ‘Inner Genius’ which we can tap into by connecting with our most valuable trait: intuition,” she says. “This a revolutionary inner power. But it is not just for the elite few; it’s the birthright of each and every one of us.” Kim can illustrate with astonishing accuracy how people like Steve Jobs and Oprah Winfrey, who began life as everyday people, utilized this trait to become wildly successful. Kim can also share with audiences how to tap into this innate trait, with life-changing results. She is an international best-selling author and Intuition expert who founded the popular CREATE! Festival in Pittsburgh, Pa. Her new global online Intuition
school, IntuitionLab is launching now. Contact her at KChestney@rtirguests.com; (412) 214-9502.

18. ==> Overcome the Agony of Indecision

Have you ever had to make a tough decision? Like whether to leave a job? Get out of a relationship? Or what medical treatment to pursue? It can leave you feeling scared, lonely, and frozen with fear. As a systems analyst, Terrie Novak is an expert at decision-making… or “choice-making” as she likes to call it. So, when she was faced with a scary diagnosis and an even scarier treatment option, she decided (after freaking out) to apply what she does at work to help her make some important decisions. Now she can help you and your audience do the same! Terrie Novak works in software engineering as a systems analyst. Her unique framework for “choice-making” can be applied to decisions of any kind. Her book, “Decision Doctor: How to Overcome the Agony of Indecision,” outlines a three-step process anyone can use. Contact Terrie Novak at (503) 336-3767; TNovak@rtirguests.com

19. ==> Compulsive Habits – What’s Yours?

Just about everyone has an addiction or a compulsive habit that controls their behavior and their choices. One out of three persons is overtly addicted to something – like alcohol or drugs. But did you know that virtually two out of three persons is covertly addicted to something? And they may not even realize it! Subtle behaviors like gossiping, judging others, people pleasing, shopping and working can all be compulsive. Interview Michael McGee, MD, about the science of habit and his “Good now, Bad later” philosophy to help your audience figure out if they
have compulsive habits and what to do about them! Dr. McGee trained at Stanford and Harvard Medical Schools and has helped hundreds of patients beat their addictions. He is the author of “The Joy of Recovery: The New 12 Step Guide to Recovery from Addiction.” Contact Dr. Michael McGee at (978) 971-9703; MMcGee@rtirguests.com

20. ==> This Medium Helps with Loss, Grief and Disappointment

There are many types of loss — and millions of us worldwide are experiencing life interruptions and even grief. The worst can be losing a loved one to death, divorce, accidents, war or

=======================================
1. ==> Will Feds Cut Rates this Month?

Corporate Investment Strategist Chris Macke says if
you’ve been reading the press these past few weeks
you’d be convinced the Federal Reserve was going to cut
rates by the end of July. But he doesn’t necessarily
agree. “While the odds are better than not that the Fed
will cut rates by the end of July, especially given the
subsequent weak GDP report from China, there was an
irrational level of certainty based on what was known
at the time. Despite being less than three weeks away,
much can happen between now and the Federal Open Market
Committee (FOMC) meeting, and it already has.” Macke
says, “While an eventual rate cut is a certainty, the
timing is not, just as we know a recession is a
certainty but not when it will strike. In the absence
of certain knowledge of when either will happen, it is
prudent for investors not to assign an irrationally
high degree of probability to either occurrence.” Macke
has advised the Chicago and Washington, D.C. districts
of the U.S. Federal Reserve and the largest U.S.
pension fund, CalPERS with more than $300 billion in
assets. He currently guides research and investment
strategy for a $10 billion institutional investment
manager. Macke is also the author of “Solutionomics.”

2. ==> Trump is Winning Immigration Messaging War

A new report from the liberal think tank Center for
American Progress says Democrats are losing the
immigration messaging war to Donald Trump. Tom Jawetz,
vice president of immigration policy at the Center,
says the party’s decision to cede the “rule of law”
ground to Republicans creates “the false dichotomy of
America as either a nation of immigrants or a nation of
laws”—making the party and its candidates appear soft
on enforcement, and potentially weakening future
attempts for humanitarian-focused immigration reform.
Jawetz—a former immigration attorney and chief counsel
on the Immigration Subcommittee of the House Judiciary
Committee, differentiates “the rule of law” and Trump’s
“law and order” rhetoric, calling the latter “an
enforcement-heavy vision of social control that is
generally used as a racially coded dog whistle.” For
Democrats to achieve a fair and functional immigration
system, they have to patch the immigration system’s
fragmented legal framework, Jawetz says—instead of
“relying increasingly upon administrative discretion to
save the system from itself.” Contact Julia Cusick at
jcusick@americanprogress.org

3. ==> When You Don’t Decry Hate Speech

There is still a stunning silence from top Republicans
after last week’s Trump rally in North Carolina when
the US president attacked Somali-born Minnesota
Representative Ilhan Omar and the crowd chanted “Send
her back! Send her back!” Democrats and others have
condemned Trump’s recent Tweets about several
Congresswomen of color as racist, but the GOP and Trump
supporters are either unfazed or willing to look the
other way. Invite Ellen Korman Mains to talk about the
rise in race-based nationalism in the U.S. and abroad
and the challenge of responding to the alarming
increase in hate crime without going numb or responding
with more hate. She’ll explore the psychological
factors that fuel hate-filled behavior such as
existential fear, low self-esteem, feeling powerless,
and wanting to blame someone else to avoid feeling
one’s own suffering or shortcomings, and discuss why
hate speech is so dangerous. Ellen is the daughter of
Holocaust survivors and the author of the award-winning
memoir, “Buried Rivers: A Spiritual Journey into the
Holocaust.” Reach her at (720) 292-4520;

4. ==> Yesterday: Why We Can’t Forget the Beatles

Danny Boyle’s musical comedy ‘Yesterday,’ is about a
struggling singer-songwriter who gets hit by a bus and
wakes up in a world where The Beatles never existed.
Now armed with the knowledge of some of the greatest
pop songs ever written, he rises to stardom and
everyone is amazed by his talent. What makes the
Beatles so unforgettable? How did they change music
forever? Why are they still so relevant that a big
movie studio would make “Yesterday”? Will their legacy
go on forever even after people no longer remember The
Rolling Stones or The Who? Get the answers to these
questions and more with Susan Shumsky as your guest.
Susan regularly regales Beatles fans with fascinating
facts about the Fab Four’s “White Album” and their
lives in the 1960s. Susan spent 22 years living in the
ashrams of the Beatles’ guru. She is the award-winning

6. ==> This Guest’s Outdoor Adventures Will Give You
Shivers

Most of us have never experienced the natural world the
way Sparrow Hart has. For example, who can say that
they have been charged by bears and has close
encounters with mountain lions? Or stuck around and
sung to a rattlesnake they unexpectedly encountered?
Who spent 700 days in the wilderness alone or got lost
in a canyon five times the size of the Grand Canyon?
Sparrow has done all that and more. He’ll share why he
says today’s man feels alone, isolated, and estranged
from the great rhythms of nature. An entertaining
storyteller, he can reveal how all of us can appreciate
nature more this summer and discover who we are in the
process. Sparrow has had a varied career that includes
being a Phi Beta Kappa at Stanford, working in a
slaughterhouse and leading men’s programs and vision
quests in nature. He is the author of several books
including “Letters to the River: A Guide to a Dream
Worth Living.” Contact him at (801) 516-0740;

7. ==> How Foreigners Shut U.S. Students out of Jobs

Did you know that in 2017 alone, 275,000 foreign-born
students got jobs that should have gone to American
college students? Or that less than 50 percent of U.S.
citizen STEM graduates actually land a job in STEM?
Most parents and students have no idea about the
discrimination against hiring American nor do American
taxpayers who are losing some $2 billion in
contributions to Medicare and social security as a
result. Let Hilarie Gamm—a nationally recognized leader
—enlighten your audience about two current bills: One
that ends diversity and favors Big Tech and another
that seeks to end the loophole that is eliminating
Americans as job candidates. She’ll bust the myth that
there is a shortage of homegrown highly skilled,
educated and qualified workers and share why every
citizen who cares about the future of the middle class
should be paying attention to this legislation and
taking action. Hilarie is one of three founders of the
nonpartisan American Workers Coalition, championing
H.R. 3564 Fairness for High-Skilled Americans Act
sponsored by Arizona Congressman Paul Gosar. A veteran
talk show guest, she is the author of “Billions Lost:
The American Tech Crisis and The Road Map to Change.”

8. ==> Do a Show On Why Women Directors Are Snubbed

While female directors are not given their due in
Hollywood, this wasn’t always the case. “In Episode 3
of my TV series ‘Kailin Gow’s Go Girl Food, Travel, and
Lost History,’ I talk about the lack of women directors
in Hollywood,” says Kailin Gow. “But what’s fascinating
is that the earliest pioneers of filmmaking in
Hollywood were women who wrote and directed many silent
films. When films started making money and being
profitable, that’s when many men entered filmmaking and
turned it into a big industry. The pioneer women
filmmakers were forgotten and left behind.” Kailin can
share how women can break through the glass ceiling in
this and other male-dominated industries. She is a
director/filmmaker and the founder of Sparklesoup Inc.
and an internationally recognized, multi-award-winning
bestselling author who has sold over 5.5 million books.

9. ==> The Secret to Decoding Last Night’s Dream

From terrifying nightmares to ridiculous romps with
crazy characters and bizarre locations, your nightly
adventures aren’t random at all. They reveal a lot
about what’s going on in your life, but deciphering
them can be confusing, to say the least. Dream analyst
Layne Dalfen says your dreams are actually
conversations you have with yourself about specific
current issues in your life. She says, “The solution
you’re looking for about what (or who) in your life is
bugging you this week will appear in your unconscious
mind before it gets to your conscious. Dream analysis
gives you the power to decide how you want to respond
to people and situations in your life.” Dalfen will
teach listeners a step-by-step method to decode those
dreams and use the knowledge to help make decisions and
deal with difficult situations. Layne Dalfen teaches
dream analysis to counselling students at Concordia
University in Montreal. She’s appeared on hundreds of
radio shows and podcasts and loves call-in programs

10. ==> The ‘Decision Dr.’ Takes the Agony out of
Indecision

Have you ever had to make a tough decision? Like
whether to leave a job? Get out of a relationship? Or
what medical treatment to pursue? It can leave you
feeling scared, lonely, and frozen with fear. As a
systems analyst, Terrie Novak is an expert at decision-
making… or “choice-making” as she likes to call it.

her make some important decisions. Now she can help
you and your audience do the same! Terrie Novak works

11. ==> Women Over 40 Wrangling Their Best Lives

Like many women over 40, Sandra Matheson found herself
at a daunting crossroads. She was divorced, unable to
continue her career as a veterinarian due to work-
related chemical sensitivities and stuck with a money-
losing farm. But she managed to turn lemons into
lemonade by focusing on rebuilding her farm, which
became a metaphor for her life. “Just as a farmer grows
crops, you can make the choice to grow your dreams
after 40,” she says. “The main focus has to be on
silencing your ‘inner critic.’ Growing your life will
take some work. However, the fruits of that harvest are
well worth it. ” Sandra is a co-host of the New Cowgirl
Camps, which teach women about farming and ranching,
the next of which is set for Aug. 26-30 in Cheney,
Wash. She is also the author of the upcoming book

12. ==> Do a Show on Compulsive Habits

Whether you like it or not, everyone has an addiction
or compulsive habit that controls their behavior and
their choices. One out of three persons is overtly
addicted to something – like alcohol or drugs. But did
you know that virtually two out of three persons is
covertly addicted to something – and they may not even
realize it? Subtle behaviors like gossiping, judging
others, people pleasing, shopping and working can all
be compulsive. Interview Michael McGee, M.D., about
the science of habit and his “Good now, Bad later”
philosophy to help your audience figure out if they
have compulsive habits and what to do about them! Dr.
Michael McGee trained at Stanford and Harvard Medical
Schools. He is the author of “The Joy of Recovery: The
New 12 Step Guide to Recovery from Addiction.” Contact

13. ==> Why Your Kids Bad Behavior is Caused by Your
Anxiety

Your kids are acting like feral cats. They won’t
listen. They fight and raise your blood pressure. It’s
not their fault. It’s your body’s chemical reaction to
stress that is adding to their bad behavior, and it’s
also why you may be experiencing real pain. Noted spine
surgeon Dr. David Hanscom will explain the connection
between anxiety and surges of body chemicals, and
reveal how you can train your body to control these
surges– even when the stress comes from your kids.
Hanscom, author of “Back in Control: A Surgeon’s
Roadmap Out of Chronic Pain” will share research-based
evidence and information about the direct connection
between stress, the body’s chemistry and physical pain.
He’ll also discuss how Western medicine’s answer to
stress has led to drug abuse, gratuitous surgeries and
just plain bad-doctoring for adults and kids alike. An
in-demand speaker and talk-show guest, including The
Dr. Oz Show and Fox News, Hanscom will change the way
you react to stressful situations – getting your
audience back on track to really enjoy parenting.

Want You to Know

David Kottler, the Insurance Doctor ™, says the recent
Transamerica COI Settlement is a big WIN for insurance
companies and a big LOSS for policy holders. Invite him

15. ==> Incompetent, Reckless, Smug — Does That Spell
the IRS?

It’s one thing to hate and even fear the powerful
entity that takes a sizable chunk of your hard-earned
money. But according to tax expert Richard Green — who
used to be one of the Internal Revenue Service’s own —
it’s the abuses and pompous approach of the IRS that
should get you really angry. Find out more from this
former agent, who contends that we should be talking
about (and opposing!) the recklessness of the IRS year-
round. As your guest, Green will explore: disparaging
reports and Congressional investigations on the IRS we
hear about every month … whether most audits are UNFAIR
to taxpayers … stark realities about the slow-moving
IRS staff and antiquated technology causing chaos and
wastefulness nationwide … why it’s only getting worse,
and what you can do. Only someone like Green, who’s
seen it firsthand, can blow the whistle on the IRS
mess! Richard Green has authored “Agents of Deceit.”

16. ==> The Forgotten Lives of the Abortion Debate

As the U.S. has become bitterly divided by the current
changes to abortion laws, best-selling author Jane
Jenkins Herlong points out that one faction of society
is being completely over-looked: elderly people. “When
it comes to sanctity of life, we really need to focus
on the elderly,” she says. “The extreme abortion laws
from New York to Alabama are vastly different. This
also affects the elderly, who are not part of the
current discussion.” Jane can discuss what she learned
from caring for her own elderly mom, and why we need to
take greater measures to protect the elderly to ensure
that they live the remainder of their lives in safety,
comfort and dignity. She is a former Miss America
contestant and the award-winning author of four books
including Rhinestones on My Flip-Flops. In addition,
she has recorded music CDs and personal growth and
comedy DVDs. As a humorist, her comedy is featured on
Sirius XM 97. Contact Jane at JHerlong@rtirguests.com;

17. ==> This Summer, Mentor a Dad-less Boy

As a divorced dad to two young boys, Pastor Eric
Hawthorne knows how important it is for boys to have
male role models. Since 81 percent of all single parent
households are headed by moms, he sees a real need for
men to get involved with the young males in their
communities. “There is a severe fatherhood deficit in
our society,” he says. “I see young kids out on the
street, doing drugs because nine times out of 10, their
fathers are absent.” Eric can share what men can do to
mentor the young boys in their communities, and how
this benefits society as a whole. “We need more
interaction between the church, the YMCA and other
programs through which men can help them to learn
manhood. It will impact society for the long haul and
help to keep boys out of trouble.” Pastor Eric is the
second-generation pastor of Daystar Deliverance
Ministries in Richardson, Texas, the author of the
upcoming book “Are You Ready for Marriage?” Contact him

18. ==> How to Tap into Your ‘Inner Genius’

When it comes to achieving success and happiness in
life, most people focus on external factors and
circumstances such as skills, luck, hard work and
intelligence in an attempt to attain their goals. But
Intuition expert Kim Chestney claims that we are going
about this all wrong. “We all have an ‘Inner Genius’
which we can tap into by connecting with our most
valuable trait: intuition,” she says. “This a
revolutionary inner power. But it is not just for the
elite few; it’s the birthright of each and every one of
us.” Kim can illustrate with astonishing accuracy how
people like Steve Jobs and Oprah Winfrey, who began
life as everyday people, utilized this trait to become
wildly successful. Kim can also share with audiences
how to tap into this innate trait, with life-changing
results. She is an international best-selling author
and Intuition expert who founded the popular CREATE!
Festival in Pittsburgh, PA and just launched a global

20. ==> Why Do People Act That Way??

Who hasn’t scratched their head while trying to
understand why a family member, coworker, friend or
stranger did something inexplicable? For instance, why
a business associate suddenly tells you about the
affair they are having or why the neighbor, who seemed
perfectly OK last weekend, just killed himself. Myke
Merrill, D.Min., will help your listeners understand
their fellow human beings’ behavior… and what they can
do about it! He’ll explain the 5 basic emotional
systems we all have, what shapes the way we each

1. ==> Today is 50th Anniversary of Apollo 11

Today marks the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11th
moon landing! Invite NASA expert and space historian
Rod Pyle to share an exciting behind-the-scenes look at
America’s journey to the Moon—from the space race to
the landing on the Sea of Tranquility to splashdown on
Earth and the aftermath. Vice President Mike Pence
recently promised the National Space Council that
Americans will return to the moon by 2024. Pyle can
also discuss the likelihood of that and share a glimpse
at the next few decades of spaceflight and NASA’s long-
term plans for exploration, utilization, and
settlement. Rod Pyle worked at NASA’s Jet Propulsion
Laboratory and the Johnson Space Center and has
produced numerous documentaries for the History Channel
and Discovery Communications, including the acclaimed
Modern Marvels: Apollo 11. He’s the author of more than

2. ==> It’s Getting Creepy: Why We Need a Federal
Privacy Law

It’s happened to all of us—getting unsolicited calls
for credit cards right after we’ve gotten a new job, or
suddenly being targeted with ads for baby products
before you’ve even told anyone you’re pregnant. Michael
Beckerman says it feels intrusive, and it is. “Those
ads, which have your real name, address, and phone
number, aren’t a coincidence. Data brokers that
consumers have no relationship with create custom
profiles of individuals and sell them to anybody
willing to pay for it. Most Americans are largely
unaware – and would be very troubled to know – that
these massive companies are assembling profiles of them
from thousands of different sources and selling it to
advertisers.” Beckerman, president and CEO of the
Internet Association, can explain what commercial data
brokers do, the surprising information they collect,
and why he believes we need a comprehensive federal
privacy law that protects consumers, provides
meaningful transparency, and gives consumers control
over how their data is collected, used, and shared.

3. ==> How Do We Depolarize America?

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

4. ==> How Foreigners Shut Talented U.S. Students out
of Jobs

Did you know that in 2017 alone, 275,000 foreign-born
students got jobs that could have gone to American
college students? Or that less than 50 percent of U.S.
citizen STEM graduates actually land a job in STEM?
Most parents and students have no idea about the
discrimination against hiring American nor do American
taxpayers who are losing some $2 billion in
contributions to Medicare and social security as a

in the technology industry—enlighten your audience
about two current bills: One that ends diversity and

loophole that is eliminating Americans as job
candidates. She’ll bust the myth that there is a

5. ==> National Security Expert on CIA Black Sites

The former director of the CIA’s Counterterrorist
Center and the FBI’s National Security Branch, Philip
Mudd is no stranger to covert ops, enhanced
interrogation techniques, and extraordinary renditions.
Yet in his honesty and forthrightness about our
intelligence shortcomings in the War on Terror, he has
sometimes invited the criticism of some high ranking
figures. Invite Mudd to share his sober, balanced
assessment of “The Program,” the post-9/11 strategy
developed by the CIA to hold captured prisoners,
extract information, and prevent another catastrophic
attack. You’ll hear about the planning, operating, and
disassembling of the notorious “black sites”—which were
the secret CIA-run prisons used to interrogate captives
from battlefields around the world. Questions about
these “black sites,” which were based in foreign
countries for legal reasons, have been circulating for
years. You’ll learn: how were prisoners transported
there? What did these secret prisons look like? How
were the detainees “broken”—and what happened after?
Philip Mudd’s upcoming book is “Black Site: The CIA in
the Post 9/11 World.” Mudd is available July 29-August

6. ==> The Growing Attack on America’s Beef Industry

Most Americans are unaware of the ongoing assault on
the American beef industry—and their personal dietary
choices—led by such entities as the World Wildlife
Fund, the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the United
Nations Environment Program. So says Tom DeWeese,
president of the American Policy Center, a grassroots
action and education foundation dedicated to the
promotion of free enterprise and limited government
regulations over commerce and individuals. DeWeese says
that while their stated goal is to produce a better
grade of beef, their true intention is to ban beef
altogether. Surprisingly, he adds, the National
Cattlemen’s Beef Association is allowing this to
happen. “The reality is it’s not going to go away
because the goal is not environmental protection,
rather the destruction of their industry and control
through what the U.N. calls the reorganization of human
society.” Tom DeWeese is a speaker and property rights
advocate who has debated at Cambridge University. He is
the author of many books including, “Sustainable: The
WAR on Free Enterprise, Private Property and
Individuals.” DeWeese has been featured by Fox News,
the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, the
Washington Post and other media nationwide. Contact him

7. ==> No More Senior Moments? Revolutionary Way to
Reverse Memory Loss

If you’re worried your short-term memory loss—those
moments when you just can’t remember a word, a name or
where you parked the car—are just the start of a
downhill slide, you’ll want to hear some encouraging
news from Julie Renee Doering. The brain rejuvenation
expert says memory loss can easily be reversed, even in
early stage dementia. She’ll discuss a ground-breaking
approach to cell regrowth and share the remarkable
results of a recent brain study that show the quantum
energy approach can dramatically improve not only
memory, but also mental outlook and sleep. It also
shows promise in reducing headaches and helping people
with speech difficulties. The brain rejuvenation work
Julie Renee is doing is just the tip of the iceberg in
her revolutionary Quantum Activation Academy. Doering,
who will soon be seen regularly on the long-running PBS
series Creative Living, embarked on her search for
answers after suffering several brain injuries, major
accidents and chronic illnesses in her earlier life.
The author of 12 books including “The Divine Human
Blueprint,” she currently offers more than 150
trainings and 180 transformative meditations. Contact
her at (415) 385 6394 or in8@JulieRenee.com

8. ==> Good Summer Medicine: Go Barefoot

Can you remember the last time you: Ran barefoot
through a field? Slipped off your sandals and got sand
between your toes? Dipped your toes in some warm, soft
mud? This activity is known as “earthing” and, believe
it or not, it has powerful health benefits, says
Nathalie Beauchamp, D.C., IFMCP. “Earthing works by
connecting you to the healing energies of the ground,
thereby neutralizing free radicals and reducing chronic
inflammation in the body,” she explains. “It sounds a
bit farfetched, but it works.” Invite Dr. Nathalie on
your show and learn how something as simple as kicking
off your shoes can lead to improved sleep, reduced
inflammation and chronic pain, reduced stress, improved
energy and a greater feeling of well-being. You may
also be surprised to learn that spending some time in
the sun and mindfully barbecuing this summer are
actually fun ways to add to your well-being. Dr.
Nathalie is an Ottawa-based doctor of chiropractic and
certified functional medicine practitioner with the
Institute of Functional Medicine. The founder of the
“What The Hack?! Podcast,” Dr. Nathalie has appeared on
numerous radio and TV shows and has her own YouTube

9. ==> How to Have Sustainable Summer Fun

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 and is the author of “Our Peaceful
Planet: Healing Ourselves and the World for a
Sustainable Future.” Contact Yasmin at
YDavar@rtirguests.com

10. ==> Quiz: Are You Really Living in the Moment?

We hear the phrase ‘live in the moment’ all the time,
but what does that actually mean? Personal growth
expert and author Joffre McClung says “Living in the
moment is about being present in your life. It is
about moving through the world consciously and with
purpose. It is about being aware of your behavior and
its impact on those around you.” Joffre says a lot of
us think we’re living in the moment but we’re actually
sleepwalking through life not realizing what we’re
missing! Do you get upset or angry when your routine or
schedule is suddenly changed? Do you know anything
about the clerk who serves you coffee every morning?
Are you always multi-tasking? Joffre will share
questions to ask yourself to determine which areas of
your life you need to wake-up. She’ll also provide
easy, everyday ways to instantly become more present
and reap the rewards of living in the moment which
include feeling happier, less stressed, more focused
and healthier. A former media producer and independent
filmmaker, Joffre has appeared on numerous radio and TV
programs. Her latest book is “The Heart of the Matter.”

solution to enable us to become impervious to the
stressors in our lives. And it does not involve

12. ==> Why Your Kids Bad Behavior is Caused by Your
Anxiety

Your kids are acting like feral cats. They won’t
listen. They fight and raise your blood pressure. It’s
not their fault. It’s your body’s chemical reaction to
stress that is adding to their bad behavior, and it’s
also why you may be experiencing real pain. Noted spine
surgeon Dr. David Hanscom will explain the connection
between anxiety and surges of body chemicals, and
reveal how you can train your body to control these
surges– even when the stress comes from your kids.
Hanscom, author of “Back in Control: A Surgeon’s
Roadmap Out of Chronic Pain” will share research-based
evidence and information about the direct connection
between stress, the body’s chemistry and physical pain.
He’ll also discuss how Western medicine’s answer to
stress has led to drug abuse, gratuitous surgeries and
just plain bad-doctoring for adults and kids alike. An
in-demand speaker and talk-show guest, including The
Dr. Oz Show and Fox News, Hanscom will change the way
you react to stressful situations – getting your
audience back on track to really enjoy parenting.

13. ==> Compulsive Habits – What’s Yours?

Whether you like it or not, everyone has an addiction
or compulsive habit that controls their behavior and
their choices. One out of three persons is overtly
addicted to something – like alcohol or drugs. But did
you know that virtually two out of three persons is
covertly addicted to something – and they may not even
realize it? Subtle behaviors like gossiping, judging
others, people pleasing, shopping and working can all
be compulsive. Interview Michael McGee, M.D., about
the science of habit and his “Good now, Bad later”
philosophy to help your audience figure out if they
have compulsive habits and what to do about them! Dr.
Michael McGee trained at Stanford and Harvard Medical
Schools. He is the author of “The Joy of Recovery: The
New 12 Step Guide to Recovery from Addiction.” Contact

14. ==> Debunking the Myth of Men’s Work

For years it’s been an unspoken rule that operating
heavy equipment is a man’s job, but Kathy Tuccaro says
women actually do a better job! “They are smoother,
they don’t operate like they stole it, and they do a
better job of housekeeping and maintaining the
equipment. Women also have better focus and ability to
multitask,” says Tuccaro. Invite her on your show to
explain why mining is men’s best kept secret and reveal
the three reasons they don’t want women to know about
it. Tuccaro was a nurse for many years and then became
homeless. She calls her current career driving the
largest truck in the world—a 2 1/2 story, 400-ton
Caterpillar—empowering, and she encourages other women
to give male-dominated careers like mining and trucking
a try, regardless of age or situation. Kathy Tuccaro is

16. ==> Why Domestic Violence Hurts Everyone

According to domestic violence awareness advocate Curt
Lindsley, “Domestic violence doesn’t just affect the
victims; it tears at the very fabric of entire
communities.” Lindsley will explain how it can impact a
company’s bottom line due to lost productivity, can
cause long-term health problems in victims, can spill
over to schools and workplaces, and involve innumerable
police man hours. He says a multi-pronged approach is
needed to tackle this madness head on and will share
how communities, organizations and individuals can come
together to curtail this epidemic, starting today. Curt

17. ==> Surviving Stage Four Cancer Like Alex Trebek

Beloved Jeopardy! host Alex Trebek recently said his
stage four pancreatic cancer is in “near remission,”
according to his doctors. He told PEOPLE, “It’s kind of

Why not do a show on the incredible true story of a son
who, after 20 years, learns that his estranged birth

again, but eventually prevailed – overcoming her
rejection and fear. This wonderful human-interest story

20. ==> Don’t Leave it to Chance: Planned Kindness

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.”

Kindness program and how your listeners can

1. ==> Women’s World Cup Warriors – What Sports Needs
Now

Just like they did on the soccer field, the US women’s
national team dominated the streets of New York City
yesterday during a ticker-tape parade and nearly three-
hour long celebration that put the team AND their
message of equality center stage. Amy Bass says the
team put a lot on the table for sports fans to talk
about. “From the smashing — literally — debut of the
US against Thailand, the 13-0 blowout that some called
excessive and others deemed powerful, to (Megan)
Rapinoe’s battle with the man who sits in the Oval
Office, the fact that some of the best soccer in the
world was played, …and that millions watched all of it,
is almost beside the point.” She adds, “The women’s
game deserves support. Women’s sports deserve support.
So the fanfare and fandom, the frenzy and the nail-
biting that we saw throughout this World Cup as the US
women battled and attacked their way into the World Cup
final would be nice at other times of the year, for all
sports and for all athletes.” Amy Bass has appeared on
the Today Show, CNN Newsroom with Brooke Baldwin, and
Anderson Cooper’s Full Circle and other major media
outlets. She served as senior research supervisor for
NBC Olympic Sports across eight Olympic Games. Bass is
the author of “One Goal: A Coach, a Team, and the Game
That Brought a Divided Town Together” and “Not the
Triumph but the Struggle: The 1968 Olympics and the
Making of the Black Athlete.” Contact Joanna Pinsker at

2. ==> Good News for Liz and Kamala? New Report – White
Men are NOT More Electable

A new report on the 2018 midterm elections finds that
women and people of color won their races at similar
rates to white men ? challenging the prevailing notion
of what types of candidates are more “electable.” The
Reflective Democracy Campaign, a group that studies the
demographics of elected officials in the U.S., looked
at the more than 30,000 candidates in races for
federal, state and county offices in 2018, as well as
those who won, and found that women of color, white
women, men of color and white men all won seats in
close proportion to their share of candidates. “There’s
a common assumption that white men are the more
electable candidates, but our research found the
opposite,” says Brenda Choresi Carter, director of the
Reflective Democracy Campaign. “We found women of
color, white women and men of color win at essentially
the same rate. There’s only one group that loses
slightly more, and that’s white men.” The Reflective
Democracy Campaign was founded by the Women Donors
Network in 2014. Contact Nick Kauzlarich at (202)

3. ==> It’s All Numbers to Me! What the Jobs Report Means

The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) reports that the
economy added 224,000 jobs in June, continuing the yo-
yo trend in employment growth. Corporate investment
strategy expert Chris Macke says if you’re looking to
read the tea leaves, don’t rely too much on any single
jobs report. Macke has worked in finance for more than
30 years and can discuss the June report, economic
trends and their impact on job growth numbers expected
in August, as well as employment numbers and their
impact on a Federal Reserve policy announcement
scheduled for July 31. As the director of research
investment strategy for a ten-billion institutional
investment management company and a regular contributor
to the Beige Book, Macke has followed domestic and
global economic developments; global trade policy;
monetary policy; corporate tax policy; financial
markets; and geopolitical developments in formulating
investment strategy. He’s also the author of

4. ==> It’s Not Just Billionaires – The Hidden World of Sex Trafficking

The charges against billionaire financier Jeffrey
Epstein underscore the prevalence of human trafficking
and how it often goes undetected and unpunished
according to Raleigh Sadler, a Christian reverend and
founder of the human trafficking awareness group Let My
People Go. He says the situation is complicated, and
insidious. “Human trafficking is far more prevalent
than the general public realizes, and it can affect
virtually any community.” Raleigh says awareness is
part of the problem, along with inaccurate information.
“Currently, most who are trafficked come through legal
points of entry,” he reveals. “As we focus on those
illegally crossing the border, we miss the reality that
many who are undocumented and already in the U.S. are
potential targets of would-be traffickers.” Raleigh
Sadler is the author of “Vulnerable: Rethinking Human
Trafficking.” Contact him at RSadler@rtirguests.com;

5. ==> Cowgirl Camp – Women Wrangling their Best Lives

Like many women over 40, Sandra Matheson found herself
at a daunting crossroads. She was divorced, unable to
continue her career as a veterinarian due to work-
related chemical sensitivities and stuck with a money-
losing farm. But she managed to turn lemons into
lemonade by focusing on rebuilding her farm, which
became a metaphor for her life. “Just as a farmer grows
crops, you can make the choice to grow your dreams
after 40,” she says. “The main focus has to be on
silencing your ‘inner critic.’ Growing your life will
take some work. However, the fruits of that harvest are
well worth it. ” Sandra is a co-host of the New Cowgirl
Camps, which teach women about farming and ranching,
the next of which is set for Aug. 26-30 in Cheney,
Wash. She is also the author of the upcoming book
“Thrive After 40: How to Seize the Life of Your
Dreams!” Contact her at smatheson@rtirguests.com; (360)

6. ==> More Sharks! Expert on New Cape Cod Sightings

Two white shark sightings were reported off a Cape Cod
beach on yesterday and that’s just the latest shark
headline this summer, after several sightings and
attacks farther south off the coast of North Carolina
in recent weeks. Greg Skomal, PhD., is a shark expert.
Since 2009, the program manager and senior scientist
for the Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries has
been tagging and counting the great white sharks coming
to Cape Cod in increasing numbers. Besides leading the
Massachusetts Shark Research program, Skomal has also
become the go-to media expert whenever sharks are
making news. Contact Greg Skomal at (508) 742-9745;

7. ==> Why Do People Act That Way??

Who hasn’t scratched their head while trying to
understand why a family member, coworker, friend or
stranger did something inexplicable? For instance, why
a business associate suddenly tells you about the
affair they are having or why the neighbor, who seemed
perfectly OK last weekend, just killed himself. Myke
Merrill, D.Min., will help your listeners understand
their fellow human beings’ behavior… and what they can
do about it! He’ll explain the 5 basic emotional
systems we all have, what shapes the way we each
interpret reality, and how to respond when someone says
or does something that makes you scratch your head. Dr.
Myke has authored 22 books and training manuals and was
a panelist on the national television show Ask the
Pastor for 18 years. He has a master’s of divinity
degree from Asbury Theological Seminary, a doctor of
ministry degree from Northeastern Seminary, has
traveled worldwide for training and educational
development in over 20 countries, and speaks or reads
eight languages. His latest book is “Why Do People Act
That Way? (And What Can I Do About It?” Contact Dr.

8. ==> Is Trump the Next Teddy Roosevelt Trust Buster?

What do Amazon, Google, Facebook, and Twitter have in
common with Standard Oil, Big Tobacco, big railroads,
mining companies, the Pinkertons and other entities
that roiled the business world more than 125 years ago?
Interview Jim Rumford to find out why he says the very
history that led to the Sherman Anti-Trust Act of 1890
is being repeated today with such behemoths as Google,
Amazon, Facebook, and Twitter. He can talk about ways
monopolies, big government and big corporations stick
together at the expense of middle- and working-class
people. Noting that the FBI and Dept. of Justice
recently opened investigations into these giant
corporations, Rumford will reveal surprising parallels
to U.S. history as well as why he believes that Donald
Trump is the next Teddy Roosevelt when it comes to
trust busting. Rumford is the author of “Tobacco,
Trusts, and Trump: How America’s Forgotten War Created
Big Government.” Rumford’s great-grandfather was a
tobacco buyer at the time the tobacco wars started.
Rumford’s own interest in the topic was piqued by his
ancestor’s scrapbook of newspaper articles of the day.

10. ==> Does it Pay to Be Ethical in Business? In Life?

What does it really mean to be ethical in business and
in life? Today people are living in a grey area, an
area that blurs the lines between right and wrong,
ethical and unethical. Would you know fraud if you saw
it? At work or in yourself? Interview John Smith, an
ordinary guy who unwittingly got caught up in the
1980’s S&L crisis and found out the hard way that you
don’t have to commit a crime to be convicted of one.
“Most people are unaware of what fraud actually is so
it’s overlooked and people remain unaware of illegal
activity around them. We all need to know exactly what
fraud is, how it happens, why it happens and how to
avoid it!” says John. Smith is a professional speaker
who shares his gripping story and the consequences of
ethical and unethical behavior. His book “Embracing the
Abyss” chronicles his true story of unknowingly
becoming a part of a fraud scandal and receiving a
presidential pardon. Contact John Smith at (214)

11. ==> Incompetent, Reckless, Smug – Does That Spell IRS?

It’s one thing to hate and even fear the powerful
entity that takes a sizable chunk of your hard-earned
money. But according to tax expert Richard Green — who
used to be one of the Internal Revenue Service’s own —
it’s the abuses and pompous approach of the IRS that
should get you really angry. Find out more from this
former agent, who contends that we should be talking
about (and opposing!) the recklessness of the IRS year-
round. As your guest, Green will explore: disparaging
reports and Congressional investigations on the IRS we
hear about every month … whether most audits are UNFAIR
to taxpayers … stark realities about the slow-moving
IRS staff and antiquated technology causing chaos and
wastefulness nationwide … why it’s only getting worse,
and what you can do. Only someone like Green, who’s
seen it firsthand, can blow the whistle on the IRS
mess! Richard Green is the author of “Agents of
Deceit.” Contact him at (909) 570-1509;

12. ==> Tough Choices – How to Make a Painful Decision

Have you ever had to make a tough decision? Like
whether to leave a job? Get out of a relationship? Or
what medical treatment to pursue? It can leave you
feeling scared, lonely, and frozen with fear. As a
systems analyst, Terrie Novak is an expert at decision-
making… or “choice-making” as she likes to call it.
So, when she was faced with a scary diagnosis and an
even scarier treatment option, she decided (after
freaking out) to apply what she does at work to help
her make some important decisions. Now she can help
you and your audience do the same! Terrie Novak works
in software engineering as a systems analyst. Her

grew up in one of the worst housing projects in Los
Angeles. They both ended up in foster care at young

achievement.” Christopher and Wayne both tell their
stories in the memoir “Ward of the Court.” Contact

14. ==> The Forgotten Lives of the Abortion Debate

As the U.S. has become bitterly divided by the current
changes to abortion laws, best-selling author Jane
Jenkins Herlong points out that one faction of society
is being completely over-looked: elderly people. “When
it comes to sanctity of life, we really need to focus
on the elderly,” she says. “The extreme abortion laws
from New York to Alabama are vastly different. This
also affects the elderly, who are not part of the
current discussion.” Jane can discuss what she learned
from caring for her own elderly mom, and why we need to
take greater measures to protect the elderly to ensure
that they live the remainder of their lives in safety,
comfort and dignity. She is a former Miss America
contestant and the award-winning author of four books
including Rhinestones on My Flip-Flops. In addition,

16. ==> This Summer, Mentor a Dad-less Boy

As a divorced dad to two young boys, Pastor Eric
Hawthorne knows how important it is for boys to have
male role models. Since 81 percent of all single parent
households are headed by moms, he sees a real need for
men to get involved with the young males in their
communities. “There is a severe fatherhood deficit in
our society,” he says. “I see young kids out on the
street, doing drugs because nine times out of 10, their
fathers are absent.” Eric can share what men can do to
mentor the young boys in their communities, and how
this benefits society as a whole. “We need more
interaction between the church, the YMCA and other
programs through which men can help them to learn
manhood. It will impact society for the long haul and
help to keep boys out of trouble.” Pastor Eric is the
second-generation pastor of Daystar Deliverance
Ministries in Richardson, Texas, the author of the
upcoming book Are You Ready For Marriage? Contact Eric

17. ==> How (and Why) to Connect with Your ‘Inner Genius’

When it comes to achieving success and happiness in
life, most people focus on external factors and
circumstances such as skills, luck, hard work and
intelligence in an attempt to attain their goals. But
Intuition expert Kim Chestney claims that we are going
about this all wrong. “We all have an ‘Inner Genius’
which we can tap into by connecting with our most
valuable trait: intuition,” she says. “This a
revolutionary inner power. But it is not just for the
elite few; it’s the birthright of each and every one of
us.” Kim can illustrate with astonishing accuracy how
people like Steve Jobs and Oprah Winfrey, who began
life as everyday people, utilized this trait to become
wildly successful. Kim can also share with audiences
how to tap into this innate trait, with life-changing
results. She is an international best-selling author
and Intuition expert who founded the popular CREATE!
Festival in Pittsburgh, Pa. Her new global online
Intuition school, IntuitionLab is launching now.

19. ==> Do a Show On Why Women Directors Are Snubbed

While female directors are not given their due in
Hollywood, this wasn’t always the case. “In Episode 3
of my TV series ‘Kailin Gow’s Go Girl Food, Travel, and
Lost History,’ I talk about the lack of women directors
in Hollywood,” says Kailin Gow. “But what’s fascinating
is that the earliest pioneers of filmmaking in
Hollywood were women who wrote and directed many silent
films. When films started making money and being
profitable, that’s when many men entered filmmaking and
turned it into a big industry. The pioneer women
filmmakers were forgotten and left behind.” Kailin can
share how women can break through the glass ceiling in
this and other male-dominated industries. She is a
director/filmmaker and the founder of Sparklesoup Inc.
and an internationally recognized, multi-award-winning
bestselling author who has sold over 5.5 million books.

20. ==> Mom, Are You Setting a Bad Example?

Mothers encourage their children to pursue their
passions, but do they model this behavior to their
kids? What message does it send when moms always make
sacrifices for everyone in the family and ignore their

looks like! Invite children’s author Rosie J. Pova to
share small, simple ways to indulge yourself without
feeling guilty, why making sure you regularly recharge

1. ==> Billionaire’s Arrest Exposes the Hidden World of
Sex Trafficking

Federal prosecutors have released an indictment against
billionaire financier Jeffrey Epstein, charging him
with sex trafficking and accusing him of using his
fortune to “create a vast network of underage victims
for him to sexually exploit.” The charges underscore
the prevalence of human trafficking and how it often
goes undetected and unpunished. Raleigh Sadler, a
Christian reverend and founder of the human trafficking
awareness group Let My People Go says the situation is
complicated, and insidious. “Human trafficking is far
more prevalent than the general public realizes, and it
can affect virtually any community.” Raleigh says
awareness is part of the problem, along with inaccurate
information. “Currently, most who are trafficked come
through legal points of entry,” he reveals. “As we
focus on those illegally crossing the border, we miss
the reality that many who are undocumented and already
in the U.S. are potential targets of would-be
traffickers.” Raleigh Sadler is the author of
“Vulnerable: Rethinking Human Trafficking.” Contact him

2. ==> The Sports Princess on US Women’s World Cup Win

Team USA won its second consecutive World Cup and
fourth overall this weekend in France. With its
comfortable 2-0 win over the Netherlands, the US
Women’s National Team showed that it has both the youth
and experience to be a force to be reckoned with in
many World Cups to come. Invite Kate Delaney, aka The
Sports Princess, to discuss the team, criticism of
players’ behavior on the field during the tournament,
and the ongoing issue of pay equality in sports.
Delaney has been a broadcast personality for more than
20 years. She’s covered 15 Super Bowls, 10 U.S. Opens,
15 Final Fours, World Series Games, and a plethora of
sporting events. Her new book is “Deal Your Own
Destiny.” Contact Mark Goldman at (516) 639-0988
(text/call) or mark@goldmanmccormick.com

3. ==> Conservative Columnist Larry Taunton

For a lively discussion about our current social and
political climate invite conservative cultural
commentator and columnist Larry Alex Taunton on your
show. Taunton just wrote a special report in the
American Spectator titled, “While We Are on the Subject
of N@ It’s Road Trip Season: For the Love of the Open
Road

It’s road trip season and millions of Americans are
hitting the road looking for a summer adventure! Most
will come home with pictures and stories, but some,
like Jenni Raney Edwards, will find the experience
life-changing. Invite her to share how what began as a
solo cross-country adventure in her SUV turned into a
love affair with the open road, and led to her selling
her home and most of her possessions to hit the road in
a 40-foot Class A motorhome—despite having relatively
little RV experience! A successful businesswoman and
entrepreneur, Edwards traded in her office for an RV
and says she has no regrets. Jenni Raney Edwards is the
author of “Bumping Down Highways: From Boardrooms to
Back Roads in an RV.” She’s also the founder of Norsk
Tiny Houses, designing and building the first LEED
Certified Tiny House on Wheels, achieving Platinum
Certification. Jenni Raney Edwards is currently on an
RV book tour. Contact her at (904) 234-2891;

5. ==> Better than Random Acts: Put Kindness on Your
Calendar

You’ve heard of random acts of kindness. They are
certainly lovely, but why should kindness be random?
Shouldn’t it be intentional? 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

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

Stevie Wonder announced to concertgoers this weekend
that his kidney is failing and he will receive a kidney
from a living donor this fall. Hours later, 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;

7. ==> 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

8. ==> Expert Says Rental Properties Are Where It’s At

A lot of people who go into the complex world of real
estate investing are convinced that they can get the
most bang for their buck by buying, renovating and then
selling properties, a process known as flipping. But
long-time real estate and property renovation expert
Dan Lieberman claims that this is not a recipe for
success. ” You take on a lot of risk if housing prices
go down,” he says. “That’s why it’s a good idea to get
into the rental market. With rentals, you have ongoing
income, even in a bad real estate market.” Dan has many
years of experience successfully developing rental
properties. He can share the secrets to developing
rental properties, getting the best rent and attracting
the nicest tenants so that you have a great source of
ongoing income. Lieberman is the author of “The
Effective Landlord: How Owners and Property Managers
Can Attract Better Tenants, Raise Rents, and Boost
Their Bottom Line in Any Market.” Contact him at
DLieberman@rtirguests.com.com; 510-570-1368

9. ==> Beach Boys Bodyguard Tells All

Much has been documented about Beach Boy Brian Wilson’s
struggles with drugs, his bandmate brothers, and cousin
Mike Love. But for the first time, Brian’s former
bodyguard/caretaker Rushton “Rocky” Pamplin tells his
riveting behind-the-scenes story. Rocky is a former NFL
player who was college roommates and best friends with
Stan Love, a former LA Laker and brother of Mike Love.
In the mid-1970s, they were enlisted as life savers for
Brian, who was on a death spiral. After years of
silence, Rocky authored the book The Beach Boys Endless
Wave: Inside America’s Band, with co-author Ron Hamady,
a veteran of the music and film industries. “Rocky went
where no one had ever been,” Ron says. “It was a
monumental time for the band. There have been plenty of
Beach Boys books; but, no one has ever been behind the
scenes.” Contact Mike Vezo at mvezo@rtirguests.com;
(310) 997-4947.

10. ==> College Send-Off Blues: Ten Tips for Making the
College Transition Better (for Everyone!)

This August nearly 20 million students will head off to
college. Did you know that 60% of them will struggle
with homesickness, depression and feeling overwhelmed?
Many parents will also struggle with feelings of
depression and anxiety during this time. “There are
simple things that parents and students can do now to
help them prepare for this transition in August,” say
Lindy and Tom Schneider, also known as America’s
College Advisors. Invite them on your show to share
their Ten Tip Transition Strategy with your audience
and ensure a better year for everyone! Lindy and Tom
have over 15 years of experience helping thousands of
college students and their parents. They’ve been

Edition and are co-authors of “College Secrets of
Highly Successful People.” Contact Lindy Schneider at
(602) 499-4429; Lindy@AmericasCollegeAdvisor.com

11. ==> Creating the Perfect School is Possible!

Every September kindergartners start school and love
it. So why is it that every year after that more and
more students hate school – until high school when only
a few are left who actually love coming to school and
love learning? This problem is easier to fix than you
think! “There are so many ways to create a perfect
school,” says Lee Jenkins, a career educator with a
passion for improving student learning in school.
“From giving students choice in how to do homework to
creating a team feel in every classroom, where they are
more interested in outperforming their own best work
instead of competing with each other… it works! And it
works FAST!” In fact, teachers using Lee’s method are
seeing an increase in classroom learning by six times
the national average! The key is for students to be in
an environment where they both work hard and love their
learning. Lee Jenkins has been an educator and
administrator in public schools and universities. He’s
the author of “How to Create a Perfect School,”
foreword by Jack Canfield, and while he speaks
primarily to educators his message to parents is
essential. Contact him at 484-306-8784;

12. ==> What to Wear to Land Your Dream Job

So you just graduated from college and are ready to
launch an exciting career. According to critically
acclaimed author and Name Colorology expert B.P.
Greycastle, it’s great to have impressive academic
achievements under your belt, but there’s more to
landing a job than that. “Our names and the colors that
we wear have a great impact on achieving success in our
lives,” he says. He’ll reveal how job seekers can
impress prospective employers during job interviews by
knowing exactly what to wear and say on based on the
employer’s name. He can also supply testimonials from
those he helped land great careers. “I can show with a
tremendous amount of evidence, facts and figures that
our color-coded names are the number one factor in
determining our careers, with lists of the most
successful people in over 40 major career fields who
became successful because of their names.” B.P. is the
author of “Your Name and Colors: Key to Your Beauty,
Career, Personality, Romance and Success.” Contact him

13. ==> Put The Clothes Back on Your Audience — And
Become a Better Speaker

You’re in front of a group, with key info to share, but
you need to get over your own nerves and apprehension.
First of all — you do NOT need to imagine your
audience naked! That old chestnut never works. You’ll
want your presentation, confidence and message to wow
everyone instead. So says communications and leadership
expert Jill Jaysen who will reveal on your show how
we’ve all been mis-taught when it comes to public
speaking, and what really makes a dynamite presentation
for winning big. Watch ratings climb when Jaysen
shares: Why gimmicks like “practice at a mirror” and
“videotape yourself” only risk creating mediocre
speakers who zap their own innate charisma. How the
speech truly starts long before you reach the podium.
How to prevent the biggest speaking turn-offs. And
amazing truths about NLP for enhancing your speaking
prowess. Contact Jill Jaysen at (203) 442-9301;

14. ==> A Natural Cure for Opioid Addiction?

As the opioid crisis has reached epidemic proportions,
health professionals primarily rely on drugs such as
methadone to cure addiction. But Dr. Isaac Alexis says
that there are other, natural ways to overcome
addiction, which focus on the whole person. “It’s not
just about treating addicts,” he says. “It’s about
treating their environments and families.” He can also
share natural and over-the-counter remedies that can
expedite the healing process. Dr. Isaac completed an
internship in trauma surgery at Cornell University at
New York Hospital of Queens. He served as medical
director at the Department of Justice as well as
director of infection control and chair of the quality
improvement medical committee. He is the author of
“Life and Death behind the Brick and Razor-Code Red
Diamond” and the upcoming “The Seductive Pink Crystal.”

15. ==> Spine Surgeon Reveals… Why Not Relaxing This
Summer Can Land You Flat on Your Back

Summer is supposed to be the time to unwind, but most
Americans fill it to the brim with activities which
have the complete opposite effect. The stress they
create for themselves and their families manifests
itself in back and bodily pain that can put them flat
on their back. Noted spine surgeon Dr. David Hanscom
will explain the connection between summer chaos and
physical pain, while revealing how stress and anxiety
are at the core of most of our problems. Hanscom,
author of “Back in Control: A Surgeon’s Roadmap Out of
Chronic Pain” will show audiences how to cure
themselves and avoid costly trips to the doctor and
pharmacy. Presenting research-based evidence and
information about the direct connection between stress,
anxiety and physical pain in both adults and children,
he’ll also explore how anxiety has led to drug abuse,
gratuitous surgeries and just plain bad-doctoring. An
in-demand speaker and talk-show guest, including The
Dr. Oz Show, Hanscom will change the way you view
summer activities and get your audience back on track
to really enjoy the season. Contact him at
dhanscom@rtirguests.com; (206) 890-1892.

Does your child or teen do it — even once in a while?
Are older family members also prone to wetting the bed?
Find out more about this common condition that can be
treated, when you interview sought-after speaker Jeff
Lazarus, M.D. He will discuss his comprehensive home
video program “Keeping the Bed Dry,” which incorporates
medical hypnosis for anyone hoping to finally awaken to
a dry bed. Invite this acclaimed physician to answer
questions like: How does hypnosis work so well to help
keep beds dry? What other advice does he offer for
lifestyle and behavior? What should parents, teachers,
coaches and health professionals know? Why do so many
doctors avoid the issue? Do adult diapers only make
things worse? Contact Dr. Lazarus at (216) 202-3112;
jlazarusmd@rtirguests.com

17. ==> 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)
334-3853; njohnson@rtirguests.com

18. ==> Wake Up! You’re Not Living in the Moment

We hear the phrase ‘live in the moment’ all the time,
but what does that actually mean? Personal growth
expert and author Joffre McClung says “Living in the
moment is about being present in your life. It’s about
moving through the world consciously and with purpose.
It’s also about being aware of your behavior and its
impact on those around you.” Joffre says a lot of us
think we’re living in the moment but we’re actually
sleepwalking through life not realizing what we’re
missing! Do you get upset or angry when your routine or
schedule is suddenly changed? Do you know anything
about the clerk who serves you coffee every morning?
Are you always multi-tasking? Joffre will share
questions to ask yourself to determine which areas of
your life you need to wake-up. She’ll also provide
easy, everyday ways to instantly become more present
and reap the rewards of living in the moment like
feeling happier, less stressed, more focused and
healthier! A former media producer and independent
filmmaker, Joffre has appeared on numerous radio and TV
programs. Her latest book is “The Heart of the Matter.”

19. ==> Revelations of an Undertaker’s Daughter

Most people don’t like to talk or even think about
death. But while growing up in a Midwestern funeral
home where her dad was an undertaker, Margo Lenmark
learned a lot about life from dead people. “I can share
fascinating experiences of growing up around death and
dead people, and the messages I received from them,”
she says. “I have a lot to say about death and gifts
people give when they die.” Margo can reveal her
journeys to the other side, experiences she had in

not more money or ‘things.’ Abundance is a life of joy

you, the good or the not-so-good.” David has spent 80-
plus years living a joyful and abundant life, immersed
in science and spirituality where he has found that one
supports the other. “The pathway of the 12 steps leads
to joy and happiness even under devastating
conditions.” Peters has achieved great prominence in

1. ==> Publicity Stunt or Peace Plan? Trump Steps in North Korea

President Donald Trump made history when he took 20 steps into North Korea on Sunday — the first sitting American leader to do so. But whether those were 20 steps toward long-lasting peace initiatives, or 20 steps toward empowering and legitimizing the hermit kingdom, remains to be seen. Discuss the issue with Lori Esposito Murray, an expert in nonproliferation, arms control, disarmament and North Korea. She is an adjunct senior fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations, an adjunct professor at the University of Connecticut, and president emeritus of the World Affairs Councils of America. Contact her at lmurray@cfr.org

2. ==> Coming to a Ballpark Near You… PLAY

The next time you’re at a Major League baseball game, look around. The national PLAY campaign is making stops at MLB stadiums all over the country this summer to promote the importance of children living a healthy and active lifestyle. Invite Miriam Heyman to share details on some of this summer’s events and explain why the campaign is so important. Heyman is chief inclusion officer for the Ruderman Family Foundation which advocates for the full inclusion of people with disabilities. PLAY was created in 2004 by the Professional Baseball Athletic Trainers Society to raise awareness about childhood health issues and disability inclusion. Contact Mark Goldman at mark@goldmanmccormick.com or call/text (516) 639-0988.

3. ==> It’s National Hot Dog Month! Fun Weiner Facts

America loves hot dogs! In fact, Americans are expected to eat 150 million hot dogs this July 4th alone! Despite this, hot dogs are among our most misunderstood foods. July is National Hot Dog Month and a great time to invite Hot Dog Top Dog Eric Mittenthal to share hot dog facts, trivia and fun quotes with your listeners. As part of Hot Dog month, the National Hot Dog and Sausage Council (NHDSC) is inviting hot dog fans to show their creativity by developing a hot dog meme that demonstrates their love for hot dogs.

Contact him at (202) 587-4238; (404) 808-8396 (cell) or emittenthal@meatinstitute.org

4. ==> Beach Boys Bodyguard Tells All

Much has been documented about Beach Boy Brian Wilson’s struggles with drugs, his bandmate brothers, and cousin Mike Love. But for the first time, Brian’s former bodyguard/caretaker Rushton “Rocky” Pamplin is telling his riveting behind-the-scenes story. Rocky, a former NFL player, was college roommates and best friends with Stan Love, a former LA Laker and brother of Mike Love. In the mid-1970s, they were enlisted as life savers for Brian, who was on a death spiral. After years of silence, Rocky authored the book “The Beach Boys Endless Wave: Inside America’s Band,” with co-author Ron Hamady, a veteran of the music and film industries. “Rocky went where no one had ever been,” Ron says. “It was a monumental time for the band.

5. ==> July 4th – Declare Independence from Drug Companies

The Fourth of July holiday is, of course, about independence from tyranny. While the colonists had to worry about the British levying taxes on their tea, today’s Americans are being held hostage by skyrocketing drug prices. April Schulte, a doctor of acupuncture and Oriental medicine, will show your listeners how they can take back their power. Schulte will explain how to save money and help prevent the health-care system’s demise by ending reliance on pharmaceuticals, why no one knows your body better than you, not even your doctor, and how to recognize your body’s clues about your health.

6. ==> How to Have Sustainable Summer Fun

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 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 will discuss how our small, seemingly harmless habits can have devastating impact on the planet and how we can change this. Yasmin is the author of “Our Peaceful Planet: Healing Ourselves and the World for a Sustainable Future.” Contact her at YDavar@rtirguests.com

7. ==> Do a Show About Why Women Directors Are Snubbed

While female directors are not given their due in Hollywood, this wasn’t always the case. “In Episode 3 of my TV series ‘Kailin Gow’s Go Girl Food, Travel, and Lost History,’ I talk about the lack of women directors in Hollywood,” says Kailin Gow. “But what’s fascinating is that the earliest pioneers of filmmaking in Hollywood were women who wrote and directed many silent films. When films started making money and being profitable, that’s when many men entered filmmaking and turned it into a big industry. The pioneer women filmmakers were forgotten and left behind.” Kailin can share how women can break through the glass ceiling in this and other male-dominated industries. A director/filmmaker and the founder of Sparklesoup Inc., Kailin Gow is also an author, selling more than 5 million books around the globe. Contact at KGow@rtirguests.com; (617) 582-2121.

8. ==> He Backpacked Around the World Solo at 62!

When Chris Herrmann’s wife of 40 years suddenly died from cancer he mourned her death before deciding to step outside his comfort zone to embark on a 12-month backpacking adventure around the world. And he undertook this solo journey to 23 countries when he was 62, using only a carry-on size backpack. He now teaches people how to live their international travel dreams no matter their age or income. Invite this inspiring guest to imbue your audience with the spirit to travel to foreign lands where they can immerse themselves in other cultures. He can share everything from how to afford the trip to what to pack and what apps to use to meet kindred spirits.

9. ==> Compulsive Habits: What’s Yours?

Whether you like it or not, everyone has an addiction or a compulsive habit that controls their behavior and their choices. One out of three people is overtly addicted to something – like alcohol or drugs. But did you know that virtually two out of three people are covertly addicted to something – and they may not even realize it. Subtle behaviors like gossiping, judging others, people pleasing, shopping and working can all be compulsive. Interview Michael McGee, M.D., about the science of habit and his “good now, bad later” philosophy to help your audience figure out if they have compulsive habits and what to do about them!
Dr. McGee trained at Stanford and Harvard Medical Schools and has helped hundreds of patients beat their addictions. He’d the author of “The Joy of Recovery: The New 12 Step Guide to Recovery from Addiction.” Contact him at (978) 971-9703; MMcGee@rtirguests.com

10. ==> Are You a Stressed Mess? This M.D. Has the Cure

Stress really can kill you. According to Steven Hall, M.D., “Fifty percent of the U.S. population is experiencing one or more stress-related diseases. What society is doing to mitigate the adverse health effects of stress isn’t working.” Dr. Steven has discovered a solution to enable us to become impervious to the stressors in our lives. And it does not involve repressing any emotions; quite the opposite. Invite him to share with your listeners how to get off the vicious stress cycle for good.
