1. ==> Is Amazon HQ2 Just a Transfer of Wealth?

Decision day has come after months of U.S. cities vying
to become the next Amazon headquarters, but Greg LeRoy,
executive director of Good Jobs First, says Crystal
City and Long Island City citizens have no idea what
their elected officials have promised to Amazon. “We
don’t know what special new subsidies have been
promised that will require state or local enactments.
We don’t know if gentrification buffers — especially
affordable housing — are included. We don’t know if
clawbacks or other safeguards are included. We don’t
know the cost per job.” LeRoy says what we do know, is
that both deals were negotiated in secret, without any
public input. “We know that past U.S. ‘megadeals’ have
cost an average of $658,000 per job. At that price,
taxpayers can never come close to breaking even. Such
deals convey a massive transfer of wealth from
taxpayers to shareholders.” Contact Greg LeRoy at
goodjobs@goodjobsfirst.org; @goodjobsfirst

2. ==> How Amazon HQ2 Can Benefit Cities

According to Joe Parilla of the Brookings Institution,
“Leaders in Northern Virginia and New York have signed
up to try to make this work. If done right, these two
global metros could invest in shared regional assets
that not only benefit Amazon but also workers,
communities and other businesses.” Parilla says
Amazon’s presence will have a gravitational pull on
other companies, spin off new businesses, and create
demand for local suppliers. But, he also admits there
are downsides. “Even with the most ambitious workforce
development efforts imaginable, most local residents
will not directly benefit from Amazon’s investment. For
them, there are well-founded concerns that their cost
of living will increase as new arrivals bid up the
price of housing.” Joe Parilla is a fellow at the
Metropolitan Policy Program at The Brookings
Institution. Contact him at (202) 797-6139; @joeparilla

Thanksgiving meal? Keep your belt on this year and have
registered dietitian Tamara Duker Freuman share tips to
beat the “belly bloat” many of us experience during the

the different causes of bloat, surprising ‘healthy’
foods that could be causing you gut problems, and how
to fix your gastric woes and find relief! Freuman has
spent her career talking candidly about the digestive
issues many people are too embarrassed to discuss with
others. Her advice appears on US News + World Report’s

5. ==> Holiday Headaches: The Family Addict is Coming

Did you know that one out of every three people suffer
from addiction? This means that most likely we will all
be dealing with “that relative” over the holiday season
– Thanksgiving through New Year’s. Interview Michael
McGee, M.D. to discover five tips on how to deal with

Dr. McGee at (978) 360-6071; mdm@wellmind.com

6. ==> Which Came First, the Gift or the Gratitude?

Are we grateful for our gifts or are we gifted because
we’re grateful? According to multimillionaire
entrepreneur, angel investor and author May McCarthy,
gratitude is the mainspring for abundance and success.
“Gratitude helps us maintain the optimal state to
notice more opportunities to achieve our goals. Being
grateful also stimulates our subconscious and intuition
to provide us with more information that is in
alignment with our desired outcomes. We tend to notice
helpful information more easily when we incorporate
gratitude as a habit into our lives.” May McCarthy will
share her formula for success and how to incorporate
its key variable, gratitude. You’ll learn how to
develop your intuition, discover your purpose and use
gratitude to create powerful, practical and achievable
goals. May McCarthy has co-founded and grown six
profitable companies. She is a guest university
lecturer and professional speaker and has appeared on
dozens of local, national, and international radio and
television programs. She is the author of “The Path to
Wealth” and “The Gratitude Formula.” Contact Mara

pets. She’ll discuss safety tips if you’re hosting a
party or travelling with a pet, what common holiday
items are toxic to animals, and what to check for after
a party that could be dangerous for your pet. Morgan is
a holistic veterinarian who treats dogs, cats, and
horses. She is chief veterinary medical officer for

8. ==> How Just 2 Choices Could Lead to Your Happiest
Holiday Season

Make the holidays happier and more memorable for you?
Or help you avoid seasonal worries and even loneliness?
Or build your confidence, relieve “holiday overwhelm”
and set the stage for an excellent 2019? In reality,
the choice is YOURS — says sought-after speaker,
author and motivational choice expert Rico Racosky.
Invite this articulate guest to reveal how easy it is
to choose joy and motivation, especially as we approach

health issues. Rico’s latest book is “Just2Choices.”

9. ==> Could this Save California from Wildfires?

Usually the summer and fall months in California are
wildfire season, when dry weather, high temperatures,
and rogue winds set the Golden State aglow in deadly
fires. This year, however, the season continues
unabated, with whole Northern and Southern California
towns evacuated, and at least one city thoroughly
destroyed. Californian entrepreneur Jim Moseley has
seen firsthand how the fires affect the state, and has
repurposed a fire-proofing material used by NASA into a
powerful line of defense against the conflagration. Has
he found a fool-proof way to fireproof our property and
our natural resources? Jim Moseley will talk about the
current wildfires and how they’ve become more
destructive and how solutions to the problem may be
found in existing technology. Moseley, a Grammy-
nominated trombonist (Google “Moseley Trombone” and
enjoy!) can be reached at (818) 486-4662.

10. ==> Psychotherapist: How to Heal Our National
Trauma

How can America heal from its own national trauma
caused by hate crimes and growing polarization?
Psychotherapist Gillian Padgett has insights on what to

the ABCs of coping with trauma and why the country and
individuals who experience it will be forever changed
but can come out stronger. In addition to being a

11. ==> Fun Show: Common Sense Ways to Tame Incivility

Incivility is out of control. We are just acting ruder
and ruder. Joffre McClung says common sense and self-
love go hand in hand and clearly there are a whole lot
of Americans that do not love themselves these days.
Invite her to share five humorous—but serious—common
sense rules we need to make common again. Whether it’s
minding your own business or thinking before you speak,
Joffre will discuss simple rules to tame the current
rise in rude behavior, like keeping your voice down in
public. “No one needs to hear your phone conversation.
You are just not that interesting and no one needs to
hear you fighting or arguing. Can’t say something nice?
Then don’t say anything! Not everyone cares what you
think,” says Joffre. Joffre McClung has appeared on
numerous radio and TV programs including CBS TV-Austin
TX, Hay House Radio and The Joe Franklin Show. A former
media producer, independent filmmaker, and author,
Joffre takes the esoteric and brings it back down to
earth with a big dose of common sense. Her latest book
is “The Heart of the Matter.” Contact her at (917)

12. ==> How Many Sexopaths Have Been in the White
House?

The #MeToo movement has demonstrated that sociopathic
sex addicts—also known as sexopaths—are frequently
found in positions of power. But how many sexopaths
have been in the White House? Using her Sexopath
Spotting Tool, Nicole Kelly, M.D., will discuss the
current and former White House occupants and whether
they qualify. She can also answer such questions as
what is the definition of a sexopath? Does being a
sexopath or sociopath make you more successful? Why
are sexopaths attracted to power? Kelly is a board-
certified physician who was victimized by a sociopathic
sex addict who embezzled over $700,000 from her medical
practice. Her new book is “Charming Cheaters: Protect
Yourself from the Sociopaths, Psychopaths, and
Sexopaths in Your Life.” Reach her at (615) 530-6969;

13. ==> The Surprising Reason You Might Get the Flu
This Year

You’ve had the flu shot, which some years is only just
ten percent effective. And you do your best to avoid
people who are coughing and clearly sick. But you still
could end up with the flu, according to Judson
Somerville, M.D. This is particularly true if you
liberally slather on sunscreen or spend a lot of time
indoors. Interview Dr. Somerville to learn why this is
so and what you can do about it. He’ll explain how
taking the right dose of an inexpensive and widely
available vitamin supplement can keep you and your
family well and even prevent the tragic deaths of
thousands of people who get the flu each year. Dr.
Somerville is the author of “The Optimal Dose: Restore
Your Health with the Power of Vitamin D3.” Reach him at
(956) 286-0766; somervillejudson@netscape.net

14. ==> Far Too Many People Continue to Die Needlessly
in our Hospitals

200,000 preventable deaths each year in the US
healthcare system is like having 20 Boeing 747
airliners crashing each week! How and why is this
happening? And why won’t the people in charge DO
something about it? For decades, Dr. Ira Williams has
been trying to challenge and educate quality of care
experts not only in three Federal Agencies in
Washington, D.C., but also in his home state of South
Carolina. According to Dr. Williams the politicians and
physicians are trying to solve the wrong problem! Dr.
Ira Williams is an author, an experienced surgeon,
medical malpractice expert witness and an expert in how
to improve our healthcare delivery system. His latest
book is “Healthcare Warriors, Why and How to Become
One.” Contact Dr. Ira Williams at (864) 676-1420;

15. ==> This M.D. Knows the Real Causes of Autism, and
the Cure

According to a recent report from the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention, more children than ever
are being diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder. The
data shows that autism affects one in 59 children, an
increase from previously reported one in 68 children.
Physicians and autism researchers also claims that the
causes are unknown, and there is no cure. “Both of
these statements are not true at all!” says physician
and author Dr. Rajalakshmi Kandaswamy. After exploring
the power of holistic energy healing in her own medical
practice and life, Dr. Raja spent more than 25 years
developing the Autism Cure, which shows results from
day one! She recently was recognized by Buzzfeed as one
of five professionals in the world to watch out for in
the autism arena. She is the author of “How to Heal
Autism and ADHD in 30 Days: The Phenomenally Powerful
Breakthrough of Intent Healing” and a graduate of
India’s premier medical college C.M.C Vellore. Contact

16. ==> How Nixing Sugar Can Dramatically Increase
Cancer Survival Rates

When Anthony Randle’s wife Jessica was diagnosed with
stage four breast cancer, her doctors told her she
could eat whatever she wanted while undergoing
aggressive treatments. But after having a poignant
dream about his late grandmother who was a gifted
energy healer, Anthony began doing his own research and
discovered some shocking facts. “I learned that sugar
actually feeds cancer,” he says. After elimination
sugar from her diet, Jessica sailed through chemo with
virtually no side effects. “After every treatment, I
wanted her to relax and nap,” he says. “But she would
have so much energy that we would go play tennis. The
ball would rush past me!” He shares his poignant
experiences in his acclaimed book “The True Story of a
Husband, A Best Friend and Care Giver: The Struggle
Within,” and can reveal how he and his wife made it
through this traumatic experience healthier and happier
than ever. Contact him at arandle1076@ gmail.com or

People 65 and older around the globe outnumber the
entire populations of Russia, Japan, France, Germany
and Australia combined. With 30,000 people daily

Fail

wedding anniversary, long-time pastor and Christian
marriage counselor Rev. George Sukhdeo and his wife
have celebrated 46 years together. “We have experienced
almost every challenge couple face in marriage,” he

20. ==> What Really Happens When We Die?

Some people believe that we go to an afterlife, heaven
or hell after we pass on. Others are convinced that we
merely go to sleep for all eternity. While growing up
in a Midwestern funeral home where her dad was an
undertaker, Margo Lenmark learned the truth about what
really happens when we depart this mortal coil. “People
send messages in death that are very clear,” she says.
“Death is not the end. I have gotten messages from dead
people that have helped me to live a better life.” She
shares her fascinating experiences and insights in her
newly published book “Light in the Mourning: Memoirs of
an Undertaker’s Daughter.” The book has received
glowing reviews from a number of prominent authors and
spiritual leaders including Deepak Chopra, who says,
“Life is not the opposite of death. It is birth and
death that are opposites. Life is the continuum of
birth and death eternally, and now. Read this
engrossing book for your own insights into reality.”

1. ==> Both Sides Are Overselling Troop Deployment

The president is deploying an additional 5,200 active-
duty troops to the southern border of the United States
in what he has tried to portray as an unprecedented
effort to stem an “invasion” by a caravan of Central
American migrants. The deployment, dubbed Operation
Faithful Patriot, is aimed at hardening security at the
Mexican border and will bring the number of U.S. troops
there to over 7,000—more than triple the number of U.S.
forces in Syria as of last December. But Lara Seligman
says the actual facts of the deployment do not live up
to the hype from either proponents or critics.
Seligman, Foreign Policy’s Pentagon correspondent,
writes that the active-duty troops will mostly be
putting up razor wire and moving border police and that
there is precedent for the move: Both Presidents George
W. Bush and Barack Obama deployed similar numbers of
troops to the border during their times in office,
though not during elections. Lara Seligman also served
as the Pentagon editor for Aviation Week and Space
Technology. Contact her at
Lara.seligman@foreignpolicy.com; @laraseligman

2. ==> Migrant Caravan – What Are They Fleeing?

Thousands of migrants from Central America are headed
north through Mexico, riding buses, piling into trucks
and walking toward America and a vision of a better
life. According to the United Nations, the caravan is
made up of men, women and children mostly from
Honduras, though some are Guatemalan and others are
from El Salvador. Suyapa Portillo, an assistant
professor at Pitzer College who observed last year’s
election in Honduras says, “Juan Orlando
Hernandez’s presidency cannot provide jobs, healthcare,
safety in their neighborhoods or food. Eating in
Honduras is a luxury. Minimum wage is under $400
dollars a month, but electricity, water and food, costs
well over $500 a month for a household.” She adds, “The
country has witnessed a decline in security, becoming
one of the most dangerous countries in the world, where
children, women and transgender people are killed at
the rate of a country in an active war.” Suyapa
Portillo just wrote the piece “An Illegitimate, U.S.-
Backed Regime is Fueling the Honduran Refugee Crisis.”
She is in contact with people in Honduras who are also
be available for interviews. Contact her at
Suyapa_Portillo@pitzer.edu; @SuyapaPV

3. ==> How Have We Forgotten an Opinion Isn’t Fact?

Between mail bombs and synagogue shootings, it’s been a
brutal week for hate crimes in America. Leeza Steindorf
says, “The concept that we have completely forgotten in
this country, with its fierce embrace of ‘us against
them’ is that an opinion is NOT a fact. Sounds simple
but the leaders of this land have completely missed
that small distinction.” She says it’s the source of
all crimes and wounds – that my perspective is right,
yours is wrong and I have the ‘right’ to act as I wish
because my perspective is the only valid guiding force
in the situation. She adds, “Leaders set the tone of
the talk and the rules of the game. Without any
political polarity, it is safe to say that it is a
magnificent rarity in the western world today that a
leader distinguishes fact from personal opinion and
perspective, and that lack of intelligence and personal
discipline has set the stage for disregarding blatant
discrimination, accusations, violent crimes, human
emotion and simple common courtesy.” An international
communications expert specializing in peace education
in schools, Steindorf won national acclaim in Europe
for the CORE Success program that she designed after a
school shooting in Germany. Contact her at (541) 550-
0451; Leeza@CoreSuccess.com

4. ==> How Journalists Deal with Fake News

Polls show an alarming number of people only listen to
what they want to hear and only what aligns with their
own biases. Most disturbing is an overwhelming number
of Americans believe that journalists fabricate the
news. Karl Suchman says the reputation of professional
journalism has been hijacked and distorted and he’s fed
up with the dog whistle antics of those who have
exploited true patriots in the news business to foment
anger and distrust while raking in the ratings and
millions of dollars. “The reputation of professional
journalism has been hijacked and distorted
by hucksters, personalities and politicians pretending
to sell the truth, but in reality they are peddling
distrust and ‘alternative facts.’” Invite the author of
“Murdering the Message: How Real Journalists Cope with
Fake News” to share how journalists fight through their
own biases and what motivates them, from local radio
and television to network news and sports. Contact him
at (972) 345-4670; ksuchman@sbcglobal.net

5. ==> October Jobs Report: Good News for Workers

On Friday, the federal government will release the
national unemployment statistics for October,
confirming the continuation of the lowest unemployment
rates in almost half a century. This comes despite a
roller coaster-like stock market, midterm election
jitters, two devastating hurricanes, and interest rate
hikes by the Fed. Diane Huth, The Accidental Career
Coach, explains what this means for employees today.
“Now is a great time to get focused on upping
your game and either getting a promotion in your
current job or finding a new better-paying job. This is
especially true for workers who took a less-than-
desirable job a few years ago when openings were tight
and may have settled for a lower salary that is
competitive today.” Huth will explain how to move
within your company to increase your pay, learn new
skills to keep up-to-date in your field, and create a
resume that can be scanned in 7- seconds and highlight
your best credentials. Diane Huth is the author of
career guides “Brand You! To Land Your Dream Job” and
“Reinvent Your Career – Beat Age Discrimination to Land
Your Dream Job.” Contact her at (210) 601-7852;

6. ==> Psychotherapist Reveals How to Heal Our National
Trauma

Last week, even Mr. Roger’s neighborhood was not safe
as 11 Jews were murdered and four policemen were shot
at a synagogue in Pittsburgh near where the late
television star lived. What happened in Pittsburgh was
unthinkable and continues to resonate around the
country. How can Pittsburgh heal? For that matter, how
can America heal from its own national trauma caused by
hate crimes and growing polarization? Psychotherapist
Gillian Padgett has insights on what to do when the
unthinkable happens—whether it is murder, abuse or the
result of a natural disaster. She’ll share the ABCs of
coping with trauma and why the country and individuals
who experience it will be forever changed but can come
out stronger. In addition to being a psychotherapist,
Gillian is a hypnotherapist trained to work with
victims of crime and families of murder victims. Her
latest book is “From Trauma to Tranquility” Reach her

7. ==> The Day After: What to Do with All that Candy

Trick or Treating means bags full of candy that are not
only tempting to children, but also to their parents
who sneak sugary treats from their children’s stash.
Candy carries a triple whammy: cavities, weight gain,
and empty calories. Let Sora Vernikoff help you figure
out what to do with all that candy. Should you let your
kids eat all the candy they want? Should you restrict
access to it? Sora will explain what is best. She’ll
also teach her Green technique parents and kids can use
to stop themselves from eating too much candy. Sora has
taught her program under the auspices of a leading New
York City endocrinologist as well as at the Learning
Annex and Lennox Hill Hospital. She lost 25 pounds and
has kept them off for decades and has helped hundreds
of people discover the secret for knowing when to stop
eating. She is the author of “Eat Want You Want! Stop
When You Want!” Reach her at (212) 464-8590;

8. ==> Honor Veterans by Living Lives of Purpose

It is only natural to think about the freedoms
Americans have won as a result of the sacrifices made
by veterans of the armed forces. As Veterans Day
approaches, along with the parades and retail sales,
award-winning author and speaker Melissa Lyons suggests
that we pause to consider what it really means to live
as free people aligned with our true purpose. Perhaps
the best way to honor veterans, she says, is to use
their memory to enhance our lives and those of future
generations. Melissa Lyons is an award-winning author,
speaker and entrepreneur who has been featured on CTV
News, CBC radio and other media outlets. She is
passionate about helping people connect with and
embrace fresh perspectives when faced with loss or
tragedy. Her debut book, “I Will Always Love You,” has
helped thousands of people move forward with their
lives. Contact Melissa Lyons at (519) 562-0209;

9. ==> This Nazi Germany Survivor Forgave Hitler

While growing up in Nazi Germany, Rosemarie Musso’s
dentist father was almost executed for helping Jews to
evade capture. Although she and her family were spared
following the intervention of a well-connected family
friend, Rosemarie harbored deep anger and hatred toward
Hitler for decades. But she eventually forgave him upon
becoming a Born Again Christian, and she claims this
changed her life for the better. “When God told me to
forgive Hitler, I said you have got to be kidding,” she
says. “How could I forgive what this monster did? When
you carry grudges with you, it changes and transforms
you and turns you into a sour pickle.” She channeled

10. ==> She Makes Back, Neck, Knee and Headache Pain Go
Away

Did you know that 25.3 million Americans endure chronic
pain every day and that another 40 million say they are
coping with severe pain? The U.S. has plenty of adults
whose backs, shoulders, knees, joints, and muscles
inhibit their quality of life or who suffer from
blinding headaches and chronic fatigue. Anna Lee, M.D.,
wants people in pain to know that they don’t have to
live with it or medicate it away. Dr. Lee is the only
physician in the country with an FDA-approved dry
needling treatment for pain relief that has already
helped thousands of people eliminate or reduce lifelong
pain. She’s helped runners with torn hamstrings to be
able to run again and one person who came in on a
stretcher to walk out of her office on his own power.
Dr. Lee is a board-certified pain management physician
who trained at Hahnemann and the University of
Pennsylvania. She recently opened a clinic in New
Jersey. Reach her at (201) 925-0315; drlee1@optimum.net

11. ==> This M.D. Has a Three-Pronged Cure for Opioid
Addiction

As opioid addiction has reached epidemic proportions,
most treatment programs focus merely on treating the
symptoms. But Dr. Steven M. Hall claims they are
getting it all wrong. “The magnitude of the problem is
mind-boggling, and most recovery programs don’t address
how this started in the first place,” he says. Thus, he
has devised a three-pronged treatment program with
which he has helped dozens of patients in his private
practice overcome addiction that addresses the physical
and emotional causes of addiction. “It’s true that
people’s emotions are as important as their physical
feelings,” he says. “I teach people how to be healthy
with their feelings.” Dr. Steven received his
medical degree from University of Utah School of
Medicine and has been practicing family medicine since
1985. He is the author of “The 7 Tools of Healing:
Unlock Your Inner Wisdom and Live the Life Your Soul
Desires.” Contact him at (425) 531-3684.

When Anthony Randle’s wife Jessica was diagnosed with

during chemo, and is now cancer free! “After every
treatment, I wanted her to relax,” Anthony says. “But
she would have so much energy that we would
go play tennis. The ball would rush past me!” Anthony

14. ==> How to Turn Procrastination into an Asset

Maybe it’s you, maybe it’s your kid. When faced with a
decision or assignment, you wait until the last
possible moment to act. Procrastination can turn into
the enemy, but Mariann Adams will show you how to use
it to your advantage! She’ll explain the neuroscience
behind procrastination and how we’re all hard-wired to
do it, as well as how it affects ability and self-
esteem. She says, “Procrastination is a form of
performance anxiety. It isn’t a defect, it
actually means the brain and body are working as they
should. And procrastination isn’t overcome by force;
it’s overcome by a core understanding of how the body
and brain work, and using it to one’s advantage.”

teacher and performer, has presented internationally,

support for these men. Long-time female empowerment

17. ==> Forget Positive Thinking, There’s Something
Better

Generations of people have been taught to believe what
they think and ignore what they feel. But Laura Di
Franco says feeling is direct access to your inner
guidance system; the conscious presence the world needs
for healthy, impactful change. “Feeling is healing.
Until we embrace topics like this, ideas worth sharing
will only be superficial thinking in minds that stay
fearful and disconnected. Positive feeling will be the
way to the life you desire.” Laura will encourage your
listeners to be brave and listen to their feelings and
explain how when you heal, you are able to connect more
with what you love. Laura DiFranco MPT is a licensed,

Addiction!”

Is going to rehab a waste of time? Why do so many
people admit themselves only to get out and relapse?
Why does AA only work for about 15% of the people who

1. ==> What Trump Doesn’t Understand about Anti-
Semitism

After this weekend’s shooting at a Pittsburgh synagogue
President Trump commented that ‘you wouldn’t believe’
anti-Semitism could still be going on. Jeffrey Herf
says clearly Trump doesn’t actually understand the
nature of anti-Semitism. “You ‘wouldn’t believe’ it
only if you were clueless about the history and the
contemporary reality of hatred for Jews. It is an odd
cluelessness for a man who declares himself a great
friend of Israel and has three Jewish grandchildren.”
He adds, “Trump’s contribution to the revival of anti-
Semitism in American politics lies in his penchant for
conspiracy theories — evident, for example, in the
disgusting closing commercial of his 2016 campaign. It
included dark insinuations about global forces, with
photos of prominent Jewish figures. That commercial was
an unambiguous and obvious appeal to anti-Semitism. If
Nazi propagandists had seen it, they might have
considered it an update of some of their own posters.”
Jeffrey Herf is distinguished university professor of
history at the University of Maryland. His books
include “The Jewish Enemy: Nazi Propaganda During World
War II and the Holocaust.” Contact him at (301)

2. ==> Surviving the New Age of Hate Crimes

The mass shooting at the synagogue in Pittsburgh and
the shooting of two black people at the Kroger in
Jefferson, Ky., are but the latest in a series of hate
crimes that have left many people feeling helpless.
During such times, Ellen Korman Mains, daughter of
Holocaust survivors, says, there is an alternative to
getting depressed—or worse—lashing out in anger with
more hate. She’ll explain how we can put our emotional
reactions to better use by tapping into the feelings
just beneath the anger or helplessness to connect with
what makes us truly human; this is where the potential
for change really lies. Ellen can share three ways to
contribute to positive change in the world and in
ourselves. Ellen is a Buddhist who has spent ten years
exploring her own family history of violence. Her
Amazon bestselling memoir is “Buried Rivers: A
Spiritual Journey into the Holocaust.” Reach her at

5. ==> Should Parents Restrict Kids’ Halloween Candy
Consumption?

Trick-or-Treat means bags full of candy that are not
only tempting to children but also to their parents who
sneak sugary treats from their children’s stash. Candy
carries a triple whammy: cavities, weight gain, and
empty calories. Let Sora Vernikoff help you figure out
what to do with all that candy. Should you let your
kids eat all the candy they want? Should you restrict
access to it? Sora will explain what is best. She’ll

6. ==> Why You Should Embrace the Fear this Halloween

In this season of fright and fear, you might wonder why
people willingly embrace fear? But Dr. Dee Carroll says
everyone should! “By facing our fears instead of
running from them, we can not only minimize them but
strengthen ourselves to face, and overcome, even bigger
challenges. Through this refining process, we not only
become clearer about our goals in life but also
emotionally stronger and better equipped to handle
whatever life sends our way.” Dr. Carroll can discuss
why you should welcome fear, how to use negative
emotions to your advantage and how to use adversity as
a catalyst for success. Dr. Dee Carroll has used huge
emotional and financial difficulties in her own life to
propel herself toward success and to help others
overcome their own challenges. A speaker, coach and
consultant with degrees in psychology and business
administration and management, Dr. Dee has testified
before the U.S. Senate Committee on Housing and Urban
Affairs and has been featured on CNN, Fortune 500, News
Talk 1450 AM, WOLB AM News Radio, and other media

7. ==> Listen to These Twilight Zone Stories That
Really Happened

Daredevil David Arnold cheats death every day as an
airborne cameraman for big television shows. But he’s
had other brushes with death too that can only be
described as paranormal. For Halloween, he’ll tell real
ghost stories that will give you goosebumps. For
instance, how and why a murder victim contacted him
from the other side before anyone even knew he was
dead. How his deceased mother contacted a woman she
didn’t even know to send him a message and managed to
answer a question only she would know. And how a week
after his best friend died that friend was able to pass
along information that helped David win custody of his
son. David is the author of “Help from Above: How I
Went from Sweeping the Floor to Painting the Sky” and
his latest, “Help from Above Book 2: What Lies Above

nightmares? Intuitive expert and spiritual psychic Nora
Truscello reveals that nightmares are actually good for
us. Behind nightmares and those sexually charged dreams
nobody wants to wake from, are intuitive messages meant
to assist you? Invite her to reveal the hidden secrets

9. ==> This Priest Helps Lost Souls Cross Over

Over the past 20 years, Nathan G. Castle, OP, says he
has helped at least 250 people who died suddenly adjust
to the afterlife. Victims of fires, automobile
accidents, shootings, stabbings and drownings come to
him in his dreams seeking help for resolving their
Interrupted Death Experiences™. Father Nathan has come
to believe that providing this help is something the
Holy Spirit has given him to do. He’ll describe the
unusual work he does with people who were conscious and
healthy one moment and dead the next. “It can be a huge
shock to the system and people can shut down,” he says.
He is quick to point out that not everyone who dies
suddenly gets stuck. Ask him: How does he help people
cross over? How did he assist Patrick Swayze’s deceased
sister? Do deceased relatives help us adjust to moving
through our own deaths? Nathan Castle has been a
Catholic priest of the semi-contemplative Dominican
Order since 1979. His new book is “Afterlife,
Interrupted: Helping Stuck Souls Cross Over.” Contact

10. ==> She Takes the Scary out of Starting Your Own
Business

Owning and running your own business can be just as
scary as confronting a ghost or zombie. But while small
business owners don’t have to deal with the Wolfman or
Frankenstein they do have to confront monsters of their
own making: their own fears and doubts. Speaking with
the authority gained from 30 years’ experience in
launching, running and growing profitable businesses,
Fabi Preslar can talk about ways the fear of failure
can be paralyzing and facing it can be empowering and
share lessons she learned from her own missteps. Fear
and failure are two of the F words detailed in her new
book, “Fabulous F Words of Business Ownership:
Redefining Choice Words to Fuel Your Small Business.”

11. ==> How Many Sexopaths Have Been in the White
House?

The #MeToo movement has demonstrated that sociopathic
sex addicts—also known as sexopaths—are frequently
found in positions of power. But how many sexopaths
have been in the White House? Using her Sexopath
Spotting Tool, Nicole Kelly, M.D., will discuss the
current and former White House occupants and whether
they qualify. She can also answer such questions as
what is the definition of a sexopath? Does being a
sexopath or sociopath make you more successful? Why
are sexopaths attracted to power? Kelly is a board-
certified physician who was victimized by a sociopathic
sex addict who embezzled over $700,000 from her medical
practice. Her book “Charming Cheaters: Protect Yourself
from the Sociopaths, Psychopaths, and Sexopaths in Your
Life” comes out in November. Reach her at (615)

12. ==> Why Changing the Clocks Won’t Give You an Extra
Hour of Sleep

On November 4th, Americans turn their clocks back one
hour, reverting to standard time, when the sun rises
and sets an hour “earlier” than it did during Daylight
Savings Time. While this may seem like an extra hour of
sleep, Dr. Saundra Dalton-Smith says, it’s not going to
recharge your battery and make you feel better rested
than before. Dr. Saundra says the quality of a night’s
rest doesn’t depend on the hours slept, but on the rest
we get during our waking hours: specifically, seven
types of rest that help us sleep more soundly, and live
more richly, no matter what time the sun rises or sets.
Dr. Saundra will reveal many aspects of sleep hygiene
that are rarely discussed. Her advice and expertise has
been featured in Woman’s Day and Prevention magazines.

In September 2015, John J. Fenton was fortunate to
survive the ultimate wake-up call. It came in the form
of an emergency heart catheterization in which his
heart stopped. Luckily, Fenton not only survived, but
figured out a way to view his worst day as his best day
because it helped him to discover what he really wanted
to do with his life: to spend more time with his wife
and daughter and to touch the lives of more people. The
former college football player and former managing
partner of a CPA firm found a new calling—helping other
busy executives and CEOs to live their lives by design
and without sacrificing what is most important to them.

When he purchased a metal fabrication business in the
heartland of America, Ken Yager never expected what
would happen next. He not only lost the company but
also his house, his wife and his family. But that awful
experience 14 years ago motivated him to get a master’s
degree in management and to find a new life purpose:
helping companies in similar situations to the one that
cost him everything he held dear. This experienced TV
and radio guest can share what it is like to face your
last payroll and see everything you worked for years
about to be lost; it’s a topic few talk about but he
does so with great storytelling and insights on ways
more jobs and lives can be saved. Yager (Yay-ger) is
president of Newpoint Advisors, which specializes in
cost-effective ways to help struggling entrepreneurs
save their businesses. Reach him at (720) 345-7775;

20. ==> How to Love Yourself More after You’ve Hit Rock
Bottom

Life is full of experiences that shape us as
individuals and change who we are. Rather than breaking
us, traumatic experiences can make us stronger and more
beautiful than ever. Rani St. Pucchi, best known as a
trend-setting fashion designer for 30+ years, developed
the philosophy after dressing more than 20,000 women in
her career. “We are all broken and every break has left

choose to become whole again.” Rani St. Pucchi is an
empowerment coach, inspirational speaker, bestselling
author, an award-winning fashion designer and president

1. ==> Is the Nuke Race On Again?

President Trump wants to dump the decades-old
Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty with Russia.
He says the Russians have been violating the agreement
for years and it puts the US at a disadvantage with
China’s missile arsenal. Alice Slater, New York
Director of the Nuclear Age Peace Foundation, says the
United States and Russia are in an unholy struggle to
keep the nuclear arms race going. “Now is an
opportunity to take a time-out on nuclear gamesmanship,
new threats, trillions of wasted dollars … on weapons
systems that Presidents Reagan and Gorbachev
acknowledged, back in 1987 at the end of the Cold War,
could never be used, warning that ‘A nuclear war cannot
be won and must never be fought.’” Slater serves on the
Coordinating Committee of World Beyond War. She wrote
the piece “The International Campaign to Abolish
Nuclear Weapons Is Honored with a Nobel Peace Prize”
for The Nation. Contact her at alicejslater@gmail.com

2. ==> Behind the Music: The Cars & Benjamin Orr

The iconic 70s rock group The Cars has sold over 30
million albums worldwide and earned 15 Top 40 hits.
Journalist Joe Milliken, author of “Let’s Go! Benjamin
Orr and the Cars,” interviewed more than 20 family
members, friends, bandmates, and music associates from
Orr’s life to provide an intimate portrait of one of
classic rock’s great talents. Often considered the
band’s heartthrob, Orr possessed an incredible voice,
diverse musical talent and rare stage presence, all
balanced by a magnetic, yet enigmatic personality,
striking good looks, and a relentless determination to
reach rock stardom. Ben Orr passed away in October 2000
at the age of 53 from pancreatic cancer. The Cars were
inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in April
2018. Contact Johanna Ramos-Boyer at (703) 646-5137;

3. ==> Documentary Filmmaker on ‘Restoring Tomorrow’

Aaron Wolf’s new documentary ‘Restoring Tomorrow’ is
getting rave reviews, just qualified for Oscar
nomination and premieres across the country on Nov.
13th. The documentary begins with snapshots of holy
sites that have fallen into disrepair, and camera pans
across pews and podiums covered in cobwebs and plastic
sheets. Invite Wolf on your show to discuss what
inspired him to make the movie as well as what he
learned during the process including what’s happening
to churches and houses of worship across the world as
people walk away from organized religion, and what
affect that has on communities and families. Contact
Jason Jones at (512) 720-2996; jason@jonesliterary.com

4. ==> Zach Holmes from MTV’s ‘Too Stupid to Die’

Zach Holmes, the star of MTV’s buzzy new series Too
Stupid to Die, heads up a crew of knuckleheads in rural
Indiana who perform outrageous stunts and hilarious
(and usually dangerous) pranks for their own amusement.
Zach became an online sensation with his videos over
the last decade (which included dropping a washing
machine from a second-story window onto one end of a
see-saw so the other end hits him in the crotch).
Beginning November 2nd, MTV viewers will have the
chance to watch Zach and his crew perform their insane
antics — from taking rat traps to the face to drilling
a metal rod through his earlobe – proving that they’re
“Too Stupid to Die.” Contact John Angelo at
john@premieretv.com

5. ==> How Many Sexopaths Have Been in the White House?

The #MeToo movement has demonstrated that sociopathic
sex addicts—also known as sexopaths—are frequently
found in positions of power. But how many sexopaths
have been in the White House? Using her Sexopath
Spotting Tool, Nicole Kelly, M.D., will discuss the
current and former White House occupants and whether
they qualify. She can also answer such questions as
what is the definition of a sexopath? Does being a
sexopath or sociopath make you more successful? Why
are sexopaths attracted to power? Kelly is a board-
certified physician who was victimized by a sociopathic
sex addict who embezzled over $700,000 from her medical
practice. Her book “Charming Cheaters: Protect Yourself
from the Sociopaths, Psychopaths, and Sexopaths in Your
Life” comes out in November. Reach her at (615)

6. ==> Catholic Priest Helps Lost Souls Cross Over

Over the past 20 years, Nathan G. Castle, OP, says he
has helped at least 250 people who died suddenly adjust
to the afterlife. Victims of fires, automobile
accidents, shootings, stabbings and drownings come to
him in his dreams seeking help for resolving their
Interrupted Death Experiences™. Father Nathan has come
to believe that providing this help is something the
Holy Spirit has given him to do. He’ll describe the
unusual work he does with people who were conscious and
healthy one moment and dead the next. “It can be a huge
shock to the system and people can shut down,” he says.
He is quick to point out that not everyone who dies
suddenly gets stuck. Ask him: How does he help people
cross over? How did he assist Patrick Swayze’s deceased
sister? Do deceased relatives help us adjust to moving
through our own deaths? Nathan Castle has been a
Catholic priest of the semi-contemplative Dominican
Order since 1979. His new book is “Afterlife,
Interrupted: Helping Stuck Souls Cross Over.” Contact
him at (480) 650-5592; nathancastleop@gmail.com

7. ==> Harness the Powerful Intuitive Meaning Behind
Nightmares

As Halloween approaches do our nightmares increase? Are
there really valuable intuitive messages in our
nightmares? Intuitive expert and spiritual psychic Nora
Truscello reveals that nightmares are actually good for
us. Behind nightmares and those sexually charged dreams
nobody wants to wake from, are intuitive messages meant
to assist you? Invite her to reveal the hidden secrets
behind our dreams and how much control we have over
what we dream, if we even dream at all. Her latest
book, The Science of Intuition, reveals techniques
designed to make intuition an accessible,
understandable, everyday occurrence. Truscello has been
featured by various radio shows. Contact her at (302)

8. ==> Why You Should Embrace Fear

In this season of fright and fear, you might wonder who
would willingly embrace fear? Dr. Dee Carroll says we
all should! “By facing our fears instead of running
from them, we can not only minimize them but strengthen
ourselves to face, and overcome, even bigger
challenges. Through this refining process, we not only
become clearer about our goals in life but also
emotionally stronger and better equipped to handle
whatever life sends our way.” Dr. Carroll can discuss
why you should welcome fear, how to use negative
emotions to your advantage and how to use adversity as
a catalyst for success. Dr. Dee Carroll has used huge
emotional and financial difficulties in her own life to
propel herself toward success and to help others
overcome their own challenges. A speaker, coach and
consultant with degrees in psychology and business
administration and management, Dr. Dee has testified
before the U.S. Senate Committee on Housing and Urban
Affairs and has been featured on CNN, Fortune 500, News
Talk 1450 AM, WOLB AM News Radio, and other media
nationwide. “Emotional Emancipation: Step into Your
Freedom, Reinvent Your Challenges and Move Beyond” is
her new book. Contact her at (301) 587-0700;

9. ==> She’s a Real-Life ‘Marvelous Mrs. Maisel’

“Marvelous Mrs. Maisel” recently won seven Emmy awards
including best comedy series and lead actress in a
comedy series. The series which takes place in 1953
chronicles the fictional Midge’s Maisel’s emergence as
a boundary-pushing comedienne. In a fun interview, have
Paloma Capanna—who was born in 1966—offer your audience
at least five reasons why she is a real-life version of
Maisel. Paloma can also talk about what Mrs. Maisel
would have in common with Jack Kerouac and what it’s
like to open yourself up to a room full of people,
putting into words feelings they can’t articulate
themselves. With decades of experience on the open-mic
circuit, Paloma is a civil rights attorney turned
writer. Her first book is “Nearly Fifty: A Collection
of Essays.” Reach her at (315) 584-2929;

10. ==> Why Single Moms Get Stuck in their Careers

According to Pew Research, in 2013 women were the
primary breadwinners in 40 percent of American
households, and in a vast majority of those households
the breadwinner was a single mother. However, another
statistic stands out for author, blogger and single
mother Sara Sherman: 80 percent of single mothers do
not have the education they need to advance in their
careers. A former welfare mother, Sherman encourages
other mothers to earn a diploma, learn a trade, get a
degree and advance their careers by giving them the
steps they need to do precisely that. Sherman wrote
“The Single Mom’s Guide to Getting a Degree” and its
companion workbook to answer the question she was often
asked: How did she go to school, work, raise her kids,
and get an education all at the same time … as a single
parent? Sherman hopes her books will inspire other
single moms to go back to school as she did; she earned
a B.A. in public relations and an M.A. in public
administration while holding down a demanding job with
a long commute. She also made time to volunteer at her
children’s school and to be a scout leader. Contact her
at (614) 432-2717; sara@singlemomsasksara.com

11. ==> Why Your Kids Won’t Live as Long as You

Did you know that there are over 200 killers in your
home? And that your family is placed at risk every day
from the cumulative effect of these poisons and known
cancer causing agents? It’s not fast, it’s slow, and
over time manifests as cancer or some other disease.
And it’s one of the reasons why our kids will NOT live
as long as their parents. Mylaine Riobe, MD, FACOG,
will tell your audience about the recent reports
linking toxins to common items in our home… from
cereals to soaps, detergents to air fresheners, even
medicines! Things we always thought were safe could be
slowly killing our kids. Dr. Riobe has a multi-faceted
unique approach to medicine combining TCM (Traditional
Chinese Medicine) with conventional medicine. She is
the author of “The Answer to Cancer” and “The Tao of
Integrative Medicine” and the host of the podcast
“Awakened Wellness with Mylaine Riobe, MD.” Contact Dr.
Mylaine Riobe at (772) 285-7788;
mylaineriobe@comcast.net?

12. ==> Pssst… Procedures Don’t Have to Be So Painful!

There are many things that can be done to make certain
medical test procedures more bearable. But the catch is
patients have to ask for them and too often, nurses and
doctors fail to tell their patients they’re possible.
Nancy Michaels, an author and speaker who advises
hospitals and health-care providers on effective ways
to improve patient satisfaction, says patients need to
advocate for themselves by asking that treatments and
procedures be less painful. She’ll share tips on
talking to your doctor and what everyone should know if
they’re nervous or feeling uncomfortable about an
upcoming treatment or procedure. Nancy Michaels has
worked with the ICU Patient Advisory Council at Beth
Israel Deaconess Medical Center and is a member of the
Patient and Family Advisory Council – The Partnership
for Patients, a public-private partnership working to
improve the quality, safety and affordability of health
care for all Americans. Michaels has been featured by
CNN-fn, Fox News, and Weekend Today Show among others.

13. ==> Why ‘What’s for Dinner?’ Matters for You &
Earth

Our environmental, health, and economic problems can
seem so enormous and numerous that people often don’t
know where to begin in helping to solve them. But Ellen
Moyer, Ph.D. says, “We hold the power to help (or hurt)
ourselves and many aspects of our world just by the
foods we choose to eat. Our choices made day after day
add up to make a real difference.” She’ll discuss
practical things we can do when it comes to our food
choices to help ourselves and our world at the same
time. You’ll also hear shocking facts about our food
supply that aren’t well publicized, but that every
eater should know. Moyer is a registered professional
engineer with a B.A. in anthropology, an M.S. in
environmental engineering, a Ph.D. in civil
engineering, and 30 years of environmental engineering
experience. “Our Earth, Our Species, Our Selves: How to
Thrive While Creating a Sustainable World” is her third
book. Contact her at (413) 862-3452; ellenmoyer@em-

14. ==> She Takes the Scary out of Starting Your Own
Business

Owning and running your own business can be just as
scary as confronting a ghost or zombie. But while small
business owners don’t have to deal with the Wolfman or
Frankenstein they do have to confront monsters of their
own making: their own fears and doubts. Speaking with
the authority gained from 30 years’ experience in
launching, running and growing profitable businesses,
Fabi Preslar can talk about ways the fear of failure
can be paralyzing and facing it can be empowering and
share lessons she learned from her own missteps. Fear
and failure are two of the F words detailed in her new
book, “Fabulous F Words of Business Ownership:
Redefining Choice Words to Fuel Your Small Business.”
Fabi (Fay-Bee) is president of SPARK Publications, the
Charlotte Business Journal’s 2018 First-Generation
Family Business of the Year. Reach her at (704)

15. ==> Have You Been Fat-Shamed?

It happens to men and women—even celebrities such as
Serena Williams, Selena Gomez, Kelly Clarkson and Amy
Schumer. Fat-shaming—criticizing people’s physical
appearance based on their weight—is both rude and
hurtful. But take it from Nicole Black, who was fat-
shamed for 30 years, reaching a peak when she packed an
extra 100 pounds on her 5-ft. 1-inch frame, feeling
like a victim is strictly optional. Invite Black to
reveal the insecurities that drive people to fat-shame
others (it has nothing to do with you), share 7 steps
you can take after a surprise fat-shaming, and discuss
her own journey of yo-yoing from fat to thin and back
again even as she operated successful bakeries. The
author of “Fat Shame: Ditch the Shame, Get Confident,
and Claim the Life You Deserve,” says it’s not about
dieting, nutrition, exercise or even bariatric surgery
(which is how she eventually slimmed down to 118
pounds.) She says the key is in achieving self-love,
something she struggled with when she felt unhappy and
ashamed despite her new size four body. Contact her at
(805) 757-3322; nicole@nicoleblack.com

16. ==> What’s a Flow State? (and How to Find Yours)

Beyond ‘going with the flow,’ Dashama Gordon says there
is a state of consciousness called the flow state,
where the mind is able to move beyond normal thinking
mode to a higher realm to access clarity and
creativity. She adds that being in the flow state can
lead to improved health, happiness and productivity as
well as lead to a more peaceful world. Dashama, who’s
been leading flow state trainings worldwide for 13
years, says, “I predict that the flow state will not
only become a growing interest for corporations but
also for universities, government, the arts and
sciences, etc. As humans evolve and learn to master the
flow state, we will see more harmony and peace between
people, nations and religious groups.” She’ll explain
how to access the flow state, and share simple flow
state meditation practices and breathing techniques.
Dashama has been featured on ABC, NBC, FOX News,
Oprah.com and many other media outlets. Her new book is
“Yoga for Surfing: Tips, Techniques, and Living the
Flow State.” Contact her at (808) 283-2646;

17. ==> Do a Show About Honoring ‘Ta-Tas’

After her sister was diagnosed with breast cancer,
best-selling author and former Miss America contestant
Jane Jenkins Herlong decided to write the book “What
Ta-Tas Teach Us,” to honor her and encourage other
women to take better care of their own ta-tas. “The
bottom line is that my sister did not take care of
herself,” Jane says. “Complete health is a combination
of a healthy body, mind and spirit, and I saw how my
sister struggled with her emotions.” In addition to
donating proceeds from the book to a breast cancer
group, Jane shares how women can take better care of
themselves on every level. She is the author of four
books including Indie Book Award-winning “Rhinestones
on My Flip-Flops.” She is also a popular speaker who
was inducted into the Speaker Hall of Fame, and a
gifted singer who has recorded music CDs, and
humor/personal growth DVDs. Her comedy is featured on
Sirius XM 97. Contact her at
janejenkinsherlong@gmail.com or (803) 480-1190.

18. ==> Is Political Correctness Good for Kids?

These days, nothing’s more American than telling it
like it is – but author Wade Meadows says people are
too blunt, even brutal with each other, all in defiance
of this thing called “political correctness.” A
survivor of verbal and physical abuse, Wade will reveal
the lasting damage harsh, nasty language does to
children and grown-ups, and discuss the power of words
to build up or break down our relationships. Wade can
be reached at (225) 397-0785; bhchism50@yahoo.com.

19. ==> This Nazi Germany Survivor Forgave Hitler

While growing up in Nazi Germany, Rosemarie Musso’s
dentist father was almost executed for helping Jews to
evade capture. Although she and her family were spared
following the intervention of a well-connected family
friend, Rosemarie harbored deep anger and hatred toward
Hitler for decades. But she eventually forgave him upon
becoming a Born Again Christian, and she claims this
changed her life for the better. “When God told me to
forgive Hitler, I said you have got to be kidding,” she
says. “How could I forgive what this monster did? When
you carry grudges with you, it changes and transforms
you and turns you into a sour pickle.” She channeled
that energy into earning a law degree at age 63, and
writing the book “The Four Laws of Forgiveness:
Memories of Survival During WWII Nazi Germany.” She can
share how forgiving even the most heinous acts can
enable us to live more peaceful, harmonious lives.

20. ==> Our World Really Needs Help: What We Can Do

Mark Landau says that new means to help solve our
problems are appearing. “A new bio-molecular miracle
that can supercharge any soil, dramatically increase
food production and nutrition, enhance the health of
bees and suck the carbon from the air back into the
Earth. The hundred best ways to reverse global warming.
A molecule that enhances intelligence and memory
suppressed by our government. The hidden legal matrix
that creates a permanent American undercaste and how
Portugal solved the problem the War on Drugs only makes
worse. And the only effective way for us to take back
our country and establish a true democracy. All this
and more in his new book, “A New American Evolution.”

1. ==> Hot to Get Young People to Vote? Taunt Them

In an effort to get younger people to register to vote
ahead of the upcoming midterm elections, progressive
group Acronym has released a new ad featuring older
voters taunting younger Americans about prevalent
issues. In the ad, the elderly voters sarcastically
implore that younger voters stay home on Election Day
so that things remain the same. “We’ll be there, I bet
you won’t,” one senior says. “Because we’re a
generation of doers not whiners and we’re doing great.”
“Climate change? That’s a you problem. I’ll be dead
soon,” another elderly woman says. The ad – part of
Acronym’s Knock the Vote campaign – plays on the fact
that younger Americans are less likely to show up to
the polls compared with older voters. Tara McGowan is
founder and CEO of ACRONYM, the largest digital program
deploying new digital tools and strategies nationwide
to encourage voters to register to vote online and show
up at the polls on Election Day. Contact her at
@taraemcg; weare@anotheracronym.org

2. ==> PBS’ ‘Take On America’ – Black Men in Baltimore

“Take on America,” the groundbreaking new primetime PBS
series tackling hot-button issues through the lens of
race, premieres tonight with ‘Black Men in Baltimore.’
The town hall features the voices of 100 black men and
moderators include former ESPN journalist and Atlantic
writer Jemele Hill, Maryland gubernatorial candidate
Ben Jealous, “The Wire” actor Lawrence Gillard Jr., and
professor and journalist D. Watkins, a former drug
dealer and NPR commentator. The show features candid
conversations on the justice system, police brutality,
and the state of the war on drugs, the legacy of
slavery in Trump’s America, and the question of “Is
Colin Kaepernick a hero?” Future episodes, airing
Thursdays, will be “White Women in Nashville,” “Latino
Families in NYC,” and “Millennials in San Francisco.”

3. ==> Smithsonian’s ‘The Lost Tapes: Clinton
Impeachment’

The 1998 impeachment of President Clinton is the focus
of the upcoming Smithsonian Channel special, ‘The Lost
Tapes: Clinton Impeachment’, an event that created
polarization and gender politics issues still felt 20
years later. The latest installment of the critically
acclaimed Lost Tapes series recalls the dramatic twists
and forgotten moments of the scandal with media footage
and never-seen recordings from familiar faces such as
Jeff Sessions, Bernie Sanders and even President Trump.
Emmy & Peabody Award-winning filmmaker Tom Jennings can
discuss the new special, the impact the Clinton
impeachment had on history and American politics, and
the parallels that may be drawn with today’s White
House. ‘The Lost Tapes: Clinton Impeachment’ airs on
the Smithsonian Channel this month. Contact John Angelo
at john@premieretv.com.

4. ==> The Media is not the Enemy of the People

Polls show an alarming number of people only listen to
what they want to hear and only what aligns with their
own biases. Most disturbing is an overwhelming number
of Americans believe that journalists fabricate the
news. Karl Suchman says the reputation of professional
journalism has been hijacked and distorted and he’s fed
up with the dog whistle antics of those who have
exploited true patriots in the news business to foment
anger and distrust while raking in the ratings and
millions of dollars. “The reputation of professional
journalism has been hijacked and distorted by
hucksters, personalities and politicians pretending to
sell the truth, but in reality they are peddling
distrust and ‘alternative facts.’” Invite the author of
“Murdering the Message: How Real Journalists Cope with
Fake News” to share how journalists fight through their
own biases and what motivates them, from local radio
and television to network news and sports. Contact him
at (972) 345-4670; ksuchman@sbcglobal.net

5. ==> Hats Off to Eugenie’s Backless Wedding Dress!

When Princess Eugenie married last weekend her backless
gown highlighted a large scar from scoliosis surgery as
a young girl. She said it was her way to honor the
people who looked after her and a way of standing up
for young people who suffer with the condition. Award-
winning fashion designer Rani St. Pucchi says the
choice was an empowering one. “Every wrinkle is a
roadmap of our life journey, every scar a solemn
decoration. It is up to us to stay broken or gather our
pieces and choose to become whole again. Rather than
breaking us, traumatic experiences can make us stronger
and more beautiful than ever.” Rani St. Pucchi is an
empowerment coach, inspirational speaker, bestselling
author, an award-winning fashion designer and president
of St. Pucchi, the internationally acclaimed bridal
fashion house. She draws on her lifelong struggle
against domestic abuse and 32 years in the fashion
industry to help women abandon debilitating self-doubt.
“Gold in the Cracks: Move from Shattered to Whole and
Reveal Your Light” is her fourth book. Contact her at

6. ==> Are the Dead Trying to Talk to You at Halloween?

Could it be that deceased relatives are trying to speak
with you? They very well might be but you have only to
listen to them, says Ellen Mains, an author and
meditation guide who has tuned into her great-
grandmother and other Polish ancestors. In a show that
works for both Halloween, when the dead take center
stage, and All Souls Day, Nov. 2, Mains can talk about
ways connecting with the dead through meditation can
mitigate their suffering and ours, connecting and
healing the generations. Mains can also talk about the
fascinating journey she took to Poland to connect with
souls who died in the Holocaust. The story is told in
her new book, “Buried Rivers: A Spiritual Journey into
the Holocaust.” Reach her at (720) 292-4520;

7. ==> Do a Show on Growing Up with Ghosts… and their
Stories

What’s it like growing up in family homes surrounded by
ghosts and their stories? Interview Ivan Obolensky and
find out! Ivan’s rich personal history includes his
grandfather, Serge Obolensky – the famed “Prince of New
York”, and his grandmother Alice (of Astor fame) who
died holding an Egyptian book of the dead on her chest.
Convinced that people lived on after death, she proved
it by scaring off governesses and attracting a large
number of black cats that kept returning to her home on
61st Street in NYC even after extermination was tried.
The family home was finally exorcised. His grandfather,
Serge, had ghost stories of his own to tell. A
particular Captain, supposedly recovering from TB in
the Crimea, appeared to Serge’s mother and a butler at
the family country home many miles away… and then
vanished right before their eyes! They learned later

9. ==> Halloween 101 for Parents

What foods should you give your children before they go
trick-or-treating so they don’t fill up on candy? Is it
better to purchase candy made with sugar or corn syrup?
Learn the answers to those questions and more when you
interview wellness expert Adita Yrizarry-Lang. For
parents who want to take a healthier approach to
Halloween, she’ll share the unique way she has
“trained” her 8- and 12-year-old to handle the holiday,

10. ==> She Makes Back, Neck, Knee and Headache Pain Go
Away

Did you know that 25.3 million Americans endure chronic
pain every day and that another 40 million say they are
coping with severe pain? The U.S. has plenty of adults
whose backs, shoulders, knees, joints, and muscles
inhibit their quality of life or who suffer from
blinding headaches and chronic fatigue. Anna Lee, M.D.,
wants people in pain to know that they don’t have to
live with it or medicate it away. Dr. Lee is the only
physician in the country with an FDA-approved dry
needling treatment for pain relief that has already
helped thousands of people eliminate or reduce lifelong
pain. She’s helped runners with torn hamstrings to be
able to run again and one person who came in on a
stretcher to walk out of her office on his own power.
Dr. Lee is a board-certified pain management physician
who trained at Hahnemann and the University of
Pennsylvania. She recently opened a clinic in New
Jersey. Reach her at (201) 925-0315; drlee1@optimum.net

11. ==> This M.D. Can Cure Autism – Without Even
Meeting Her Patients!

While the majority of medical professionals believe
that there is no cure for autism, Dr. Rajalakshmi
Kandaswamy strongly disagrees. In fact, she has helped
hundreds of children with non-verbal autism and ADHD,
without ever meeting them in person! She accomplishes
this through her unique remote healing method called
Intent Healing™. “I am the only autism expert and
expert in nonverbal autism who is a medical doctor and
a healer who is helping nonverbal autistic children
from all over the world communicate through speech in
10 (or less) remote healing sessions, without meeting
or seeing any of them in person,” she says. With over
25 years of experience in remote healing, she recently
was recognized by Buzzfeed as one of five professionals
in the world to watch out for in the autism arena. She
is the author of the book “How to Heal Autism and ADHD
in 30 Days: The Phenomenally Powerful Breakthrough of
Intent Healing,” and a graduate of India’s premier
medical college C.M.C Vellore. Contact her at

12. ==> Here’s Why Incompetent Coworkers Don’t Get
Fired

Every company has one: an employee who should be fired
but isn’t. You know, the person who comes in late and
leaves early. Or takes credit for other people’s work.
Or, like the character Creed in “The Office,” is just
plain incompetent. Business consultant Bonnie Sussman
Versace can address this common but mystifying
situation. She knows why employers don’t fire these
awful employees and what a terrible toll this takes on
everyone else. She says, “One employee can bring a
company to its knees. It becomes a lack of
accountability on the boss’ part for his or her
inaction.” Bonnie is the author of “Recipes for
Thoughtful Leadership and Healthy Culture.” She is the
author of numerous articles for Business Weekly, the
Reading Eagle, and Lehigh Business Journal. Contact her
at (610) 301-2194 or bversace@focusedllc.net

13. ==> Bad Mistakes Even Good Teachers Make

Did you know that many teachers, in trying to encourage
their students, actually embarrass them? That
embarrassment leads to discouragement, which if left
unchecked kills whatever love of learning our kids
have. All children have the innate desire to learn and
be excited about learning. But as early as
kindergarten, even good teachers are setting them up to
hate school. As a former educator and administrator both in public schools and universities, Lee Jenkins saw the need for a new way to lead learning – one that keeps that “intrinsic motivation” alive from kindergarten through 12th grade. “What most parents and teachers don’t realize is that motivation is made up of both will and thrill. Are your kids working hard and loving the process?” Chances are they aren’t!
Lee Jenkins, author of Permission to Forget, is
currently working on his next book The Perfect School.
He now consults and writes full time with his firm LtoJ
Consulting Group, Inc.

14. ==> Phobias and How to Get Rid of Them

Fear of heights, flying, spiders, mice, snakes. These
are just a few of the common phobias people have. Then
there are many more unusual ones like fear of death,
clowns, dogs, elevators, public speaking and thunder
storms. Ed Kuiper, author, speaker and self-healing
teacher will teach your audience how to discover what’s
really behind their irrational fears and how to heal
themselves naturally … many times ON THE AIR!
As an officer of two major life insurance companies and
founder and CEO of several national companies, Ed spent
over 40 years in the business world before becoming a
“Master of Self-Healing.”

15. ==> The Science of Turning on Happiness

In her 20-year career as a counselor working with
patients with anxiety and depression and teaching
special needs students, Norma Nikutowski learned a
universal truth: everyone has the capacity for
happiness, it’s just a matter of turning it on and
keeping it on. The Argentinian-born Nikutowski will
delve into what happiness is, the detours people take
in trying to achieve it, the role positive thinking
plays in happiness, the habits of happy people and much
more. She’ll share ways to immediately change your
mood—including decluttering your home or workspace and
doing at least one activity you enjoy every day, and
why instead of complaining about what you dislike, you
should focus on and enjoy everything that is working in
your life. Norma Nikutowski has spent several decades
counseling patients with anxiety and depression to
focus on the positive aspects of their lives. She’s the
author of “Turn Your Happiness ON: How to Light Up Your
Days and Fill Your Life with Joy.” Contact her at (213)

16. ==> Our World Really Needs Help: What We Can Do

Mark Landau says that new means to help solve our
problems are appearing. “A new bio-molecular miracle
that can supercharge any soil, dramatically increase
food production and nutrition, enhance the health of
bees and suck the carbon from the air back into the
Earth. The hundred best ways to reverse global warming.
A molecule that enhances intelligence and memory
suppressed by our government. The hidden legal matrix
that creates a permanent American undercaste and how
Portugal solved the problem the War on Drugs only makes
worse. And the only effective way for us to take back
our country and establish a true democracy. All this

17. ==> How to Get ‘Marriage Fit’ Before Walking Down
the Aisle

When we want to get into top physical shape, we adjust
our diets and lifestyles and hit the gym. Pastor Eric
Hawthorne says that the same principles can be applied
to preparing for marriage, and can share his tips for
“marriage fitness” that can help newly and long-married
couples to keep their bonds strong, and enable their
unions to last. “I had a series at my church that
taught people how to get ready for marriage,” he says.
“People rarely take the time to determine their role in
a marriage. This is why there are so many divorces.”
Eric should know. He is a divorced single dad to two
young boys who has learned from his mistakes, and he
can share how to navigate the pitfalls he and his ex-
wife had to navigate. Eric Hawthorne is the second-
generation pastor of Daystar Deliverance Ministries in
Richardson, Texas, and the author of the book “Are You
Ready for Marriage?” Contact him at hiitselh@yahoo.com
or (972) 464-6563.

18. ==> Gratitude for Dog Lovers

Ask people what they’d like to change about their lives
and you are likely to hear that they wish they had more
time to take better care of themselves, to feel less
stress, and more balance in their lifestyle. At least
that’s what acupuncturist and wellness practitioner
Carlyn Montes De Oca discovered when she asked her
patients to name their biggest challenges. So, she’s
created “Paws for the Good Stuff,” a six-month
gratitude journal for dog lovers, to bring the
qualities dogs embody most to the forefront of their
human’s lives—playfulness, loyalty, grace, gratitude,
courage, enthusiasm and unconditional love. Invite her
on your show to talk about how your dog can take you by
the paw and lead you to a healthier and happier life
and ways to create a healthier morning ritual rather
than sipping coffee, eating a pastry and reading the
news. Carlyn Montes De Oca is a speaker, acupuncturist,
wellness consultant, and animal advocate in Santa Fe,
New Mexico. “Paws for the Good Stuff” is a follow-up to
her book “Dog as My Doctor, Cat as My Nurse.” Contact
her at (415) 306-1853; cmdo@animalhumanhealth.com

19. ==> Perfect for ‘Warrior’ and ‘Bloodfist’ Fans

Interested in a book that combines the thrill of
kickboxing with love of family? “The Lonely Eagle” by
national South African wrestling champion Stephanus J.
de Klerk is a raw look at kickboxing and family.
Brothers John and Paul look after each other – both
inside the kickboxing ring and out. While Paul’s
dedication gets him close to the championship, John’s
reckless behavior almost destroys his chances. After
their glory days, both brothers go their separate ways.
When the family is in danger of losing their farm, Paul
prepares for one last championship match. But when
tragedy strikes, John must understand why he fights:
for money, for glory, or for family. Filled with action
and drama, “The Lonely Eagle” is an intense read
perfect for fans of movies “Warrior” and “Bloodfist.”

20. ==> Faith Can Help You Achieve Success at Any Age

At 84 years old, David L. Peters has had a successful
career as an engineer, 18 patents, co-owns a computer
graphics company, has a loving wife of 57 years, and
has written his first book. Despite his career in
science, he firmly credits his faith in God for his
continued success and taking on new ventures, despite
his age. “At 84, I have been blessed with a sense of
God ‘being there’ from age 4,” he says. “My life has
been filled with unbelievable synchronicities, all
based upon my unwavering belief and trust in the
goodness of God.” David further attests that beliefs
rooted in science and a deity are not mutually
exclusive. “My faith comes through science, as I firmly
believe that quantum physics has proven the existence
of a higher power.” David L. Peters is the author of
“The 12 Steps to Joy and Happiness: Finding the Kingdom

1. ==> Another Hurricane! How to Survive a Natural
Disaster

Hurricane Michael plowed through Florida yesterday,
with forecasters calling it ‘a monster unlike any
other.’ When it made landfall it hit as a powerful,
high-end Category 4 hurricane and became the strongest
to make landfall anywhere in the Continental US since
2004. Discuss how to survive in the aftermath of such
destruction when you invite Christine Perakis on your
show. She was alone in her home in the Caribbean when
the most powerful storm ever recorded in the Atlantic
Basin blew the roof of her house, destroyed everything
in it and leaving her without running water,
electricity and telecoms for months. Christine Perakis,
Esq. is a certified mountain rescuer, an EMT, a 100-
ton-licensed boat captain, attorney, entrepreneur, and
certified executive coach. Her bestselling book, “The
Entrepreneur’s Essential Roadmap” is a small business
survival guide. Christine has appeared in the New York
Times, ABC Radio, Bloomberg, The Washington Post and
PBS. Her article, “Weathering the Aftermath of a
Category 5 Storm” will appear in the November issue of
USA Today Magazine. Reach her at (310) 564-6365;

2. ==> TV Judge Lauren Lake

TV judge Lauren Lake definitely took a different path
to the courtroom then most. Though she has her law
degree from Detroit’s Wayne University and is a member
of the Michigan, New York and New Jersey state bars –
Lauren began as a professional singer & songwriter,
performing back-up for Jay-Z, Mary J. Blige, P. Diddy,
Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg. She’s even an interior design
expert who hosted HGTV’s Spice Up My Kitchen for six
seasons. Today, Lauren presides over the nationally
syndicated daytime courtroom series Lauren Lake’s
Paternity Court, now in its sixth season. In the Emmy-
nominated series, Judge Lauren oversees highly
emotional paternity cases, using her sharp wit, strong
options and, of course, DNA test results. Lauren can
discuss her unconventional journey to becoming a TV
judge, and let listeners know what’s in store for the
new season of Lauren Lake’s Paternity Court. Contact

3. ==> Daytime TV’s Thom Bierdz’ Tell-All Sex Memoir

Best known for his portrayal of Phillip Chancellor III
on the daytime drama “The Young and The Restless,” Thom
Bierdz is out with a bombshell tell-all sharing his
every scandalous (often amusing and embarrassing) sex
adventures. In “Young, Gay & Restless” he holds nothing
back, including how a Republican Congressmen who, when
drunk, routinely FB messaged him nude photos of
himself. Book an interview with him and hear how he
escaped serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer, was sexually
assaulted by a boss, a TV star, and a Hollywood
photographer, and was propositioned by a Bishop and a
billionaire. Bierdz has won multiple awards as an
actor, fine artist, writer, and filmmaker, but became
disillusioned with the entertainment industry, and has
secluded himself in a cabin in Lake Arrowhead without
TV and minimal contact with the outside world for the
past seven years. His previous book, “Forgiving Troy,”
recounts the murder of his mother by his paranoid
schizophrenic brother. Contact Harlan Boll at (626)

4. ==> Beat Climate Change AND Save Money

The UN has issued a dire new climate report describing
what the world will look like if it warms by only 2.7
degrees Fahrenheit by the end of this century. Meeting
that target would require humanity to abandon coal and
other fossil fuels in the next decade or two: an
economic transition so abrupt that, in the IPCC’s
words, it “has no documented historic precedents.” So,
is there anything YOU can do to beat climate change?
Bruce Nagy says yes, and better yet, the green living
options will save you money. Nagy’s tips can help
homeowners reduce electric, water and gas bills. He
provides specific examples – such as how Brad Pitt
helped finance the rebuilding of the Ninth Ward in New
Orleans – using clean energy solutions that made the
houses more affordable to both purchase and maintain.
Nagy even guides homeowners to government programs that
can assist in paying for energy saving changes to their
homes. “The Clean Age” is based on Nagy’s 16 years of
research, 700+ interviews with experts, and more than
150 articles on clean technology, government programs
and energy economics. Nagy, a speaker for Al Gore’s
Climate Reality Project, works with companies to
develop clean technology initiatives. Contact Johanna

5. ==> Catholic Priest Helps Lost Souls Cross Over

Over the past 20 years, Nathan G. Castle, OP, says he
has helped at least 250 people who died suddenly adjust
to the afterlife. Victims of fires, automobile
accidents, shootings, stabbings and drownings come to
him in his dreams seeking help for resolving their
Interrupted Death Experiences™. Father Nathan has come
to believe that providing this help is something the
Holy Spirit has given him to do. He’ll describe the
unusual work he does with people who were conscious and
healthy one moment and dead the next. “It can be a huge
shock to the system and people can shut down,” he says.
He is quick to point out that not everyone who dies
suddenly gets stuck. Ask him: How does he help people
cross over? How did he assist Patrick Swayze’s deceased
sister? Do deceased relatives help us adjust to moving
through our own deaths? Nathan Castle has been a
Catholic priest of the semi-contemplative Dominican
Order since 1979. His new book is “Afterlife,
Interrupted: Helping Stuck Souls Cross Over.” Contact
him at (480) 650-5592; nathancastleop@gmail.com

6. ==> Interview the Undertaker’s Daughter

While growing up in a Midwestern funeral home where her
dad was an undertaker, life was anything but morbid for
author Margo Lenmark. In fact, she learned that death
is not the end, and can actually teach us all how to
live better lives. “People who have died have given me
lessons about how to live,” she says. “There are gifts
in grieving. People send messages in death that are
very clear. I have gotten very valuable messages from
dead people.” She shares her fascinating experiences
and insights in her newly published book “Light in the
Mourning: Memoirs of an Undertaker’s Daughter.” The
book has received glowing reviews from a number of
prominent authors and spiritual leaders including
Deepak Chopra, who says, “Life is not the opposite of
death. It is birth and death that are opposites. Life
is the continuum of birth and death eternally, and now.
Read this engrossing book for your own insights into
reality.” Contact Margo at margolenmark1@gmail.com or

7. ==> Missing! Her Daughter Disappeared without a
Trace

What would you do if your young daughter went missing?
How many years would you spend searching for her? In
your quest for answers, would you also turn to help
from the spirit world? This was Sana Brauner’s reality
after her two-year-old daughter Alexandra-Anita
disappeared without a trace during a 2004 tsunami that
took the life of Sana’s mother. Sana spent years
searching for her daughter even reaching out to the
spirit world for answers. Some 14 years later, she
remains convinced that Alexandra-Anita is alive and
that she will hold her again someday. She’ll share her
very personal search for answers which she details in
her memoir, “The Borrowed Daughter.” Contact her at
s.brauner@ihr-einkauf.at; Skype: sanabr

8. ==> How to End the Horror of Kids Being Separated at
the Border

Many Americans and people around the world were shocked
and appalled when immigrant kids whose families sought
asylum at the U.S. border were ripped from their
parents. Worse yet, a number of kids were left behind
because their parents got deported without them. “It’s
painful for me to hear that kids cannot be reunited
with their families, ” says Raleigh Sadler, a Christian
reverend and founder and executive director of the New
York-based non-profit Let My People Go. “So many kids
will fall through the cracks. What scares me is that
unless people are raising their voices, we’re going to
be in a bad place.” Raleigh founded this group in 2013
to combat global human rights injustices. He can
discuss how this epidemic affects society at every
level, and what we can all do to help stem the tide of
oppression. He is the author of the upcoming book
“Vulnerable: Rethinking Human Trafficking.” Contact him

9. ==> This Neurologist Could Solve Football’s
Concussion Problem

A Georgia high school football player died after a game
last month and officials now say he succumbed to
cardiac arrest stemming from a head injury. The NFL,
college and high school football programs are all
dealing with the issue because of the high risk of
concussions among players and the resulting health
consequences. But what if there was a way to make
concussions a thing of the past? Or at least a way to
diagnose and treat traumatic brain injuries (TBI’s)
more easily and quickly? Interview Dr. Paul Wand to
hear about a new protocol that could do all that and
more. He along with other private practitioners have
created ways to diagnosis and treat concussions which
if put into place could save the NFL, as well as other
sports where concussions happen on a regular basis.
Paul Wand, MD, PA has been a medical doctor for 35
years specializing in the field of Neurology. Contact
Dr. Wand at (954) 344-9772; paulwandmd@gmail.com

10. ==> This is Why Single Moms Get Stuck in their
Careers

According to Pew Research, in 2013 women were the
primary breadwinners in 40 percent of American
households, and in a vast majority of those households
the breadwinner was a single mother. However, another
statistic stands out for author, blogger and single
mother Sara Sherman: 80 percent of single mothers do
not have the education they need to advance in their
careers. A former welfare mother, Sherman encourages
other mothers to earn a diploma, learn a trade, get a
degree and advance their careers by giving them the
steps they need to do precisely that. Sherman wrote
“The Single Mom’s Guide to Getting a Degree” and its
companion workbook to answer the question she was often
asked: How did she go to school, work, raise her kids,
and get an education all at the same time … as a single
parent? Sherman hopes her books will inspire other
single moms to go back to school as she did; she earned
a B.A. in public relations and an M.A. in public
administration while holding down a demanding job with
a long commute. She also made time to volunteer at her
children’s school and to be a scout leader. Contact her

11. ==> Is Your ‘Intimidation Threshold’ Holding You
Back?

Are you working hard? Or working smart? Growing a
business can feel like a daunting task. What most
people don’t realize is that they aren’t focusing on
what will yield long-term success. It’s not what you
say or how you present. It’s not what you look like,
what you wear or your posture. The most critical
success factor you bring to the table is the inner
VALUE you represent. Founder of ThroughConversation
Personal Development Inc., Jean-Paul Gravel will
provide insight on how people perceive your real
“value”. Your audience will learn practical tools for
how to raise their value in the eyes of everyone around
them. He’ll take them through 3 simple steps which will

12. ==> How to Triple Your Energy without Coffee

Do your listeners need a jolt of java in the morning?
Do they find themselves reaching for caffeine and
energy drinks to make it through the day? Adita
Yrizarry-Lang will tell your audience that these
strategies don’t work, in fact, they backfire. Instead,
she’ll share a better way to power up by carefully

13. ==> Before You Go to the Doc: How to Get Less
Painful Procedures

There are many things that can be done to make certain
medical test procedures more bearable. But the catch is
patients have to ask for them and too often, nurses and
doctors fail to tell their patients they’re possible.
Nancy Michaels, an author and speaker who advises
hospitals and health-care providers on effective ways
to improve patient satisfaction, says patients need to
advocate for themselves by asking that treatments and
procedures be less painful. She’ll share tips on
talking to your doctor and what everyone should know if
they’re nervous or feeling uncomfortable about an
upcoming treatment or procedure. Nancy Michaels has
worked with the ICU Patient Advisory Council at Beth
Israel Deaconess Medical Center and is a member of the
Patient and Family Advisory Council – The Partnership
for Patients, a public-private partnership working to
improve the quality, safety and affordability of health
care for all Americans. Michaels has been featured by
CNN-fn, Fox News, and Weekend Today Show among others.

14. ==> This M.D. Has a Three-Pronged Cure for Opioid
Addiction

As opioid addiction has reached epidemic proportions,
most treatment programs focus merely on treating the
symptoms. But Dr. Steven M. Hall claims they are
getting it all wrong. “The magnitude of the problem is
mind-boggling, and most recovery programs don’t address
how this started in the first place,” he says. Thus, he
has devised a three-pronged treatment program with
which he has helped dozens of patients in his private
practice overcome addiction that addresses the physical
and emotional causes of addiction. “It’s true that
people’s emotions are as important as their physical
feelings,” he says. “I teach people how to be healthy
with their feelings.” Dr. Steven received his medical
degree from University of Utah School of Medicine and
has been practicing family medicine since 1985. He is
the author of “The 7 Tools of Healing: Unlock Your
Inner Wisdom and Live the Life Your Soul Desires.”

15. ==> Fun Show Idea: Play The Doctor Speak Game!

If your doctor tells you your pain is idiopathic, what
does he mean? Or if he says you need to undergo
Decompressive laminectomy, what does that entail? Let
Dr. Tom Neviaser, AKA “The Doctor Whisperer” come on to
your show for a fun interactive segment with your host
and/or callers. He’ll read five funny words or medical
terms for common problems and see if your host or
audience can guess what he’s really saying.
Dr. Tom will also reveal: why people’s pain is not
where they think it is, what to say to get a busy
doctor to see you right away, and fascinating things
about the human body you probably never knew. Reach Dr.
Tom Neviaser at (540) 718-0666; drdeed1@reagan.com?

16. ==> Interview the ‘Don Quixote’ of Health Care
Reform

Dr. Ira Williams often calls himself the “Don Quixote”
of Health Care Reform. At 85 years young he has been
hounding the five Federal Agencies created to solve the
health care crisis in this country for decades. With
over 130 years collectively between those agencies our
health care system is still a mess AND medical errors
leading to deaths in hospitals continues to rise. As
the oldest medical malpractice expert witness in the
country he knows what he’s talking about. He has
developed a system to empower local grassroots
activists in each state to radically change our health
care delivery system. “Everyone is focusing on how to
PAY for health care… when the DELIVERY system is what’s
really broken!” Dr. Williams will tell you why each
state is responsible for our nation’s healthcare
delivery system, what the 3-phase process is that we
need to implement to create a 21st century healthcare
delivery system and how to organize state wide
grassroots activists that will challenge the current
system and WIN! Dr. Ira Williams is an author, an

18. ==> This Nazi Germany Survivor Forgave Hitler

While growing up in Nazi Germany, Rosemarie Musso’s
dentist father was almost executed for helping Jews to
evade capture. Although she and her family were spared
following the intervention of a well-connected family
friend, Rosemarie harbored deep anger and hatred toward
Hitler for decades. But she eventually forgave him upon
becoming a Born Again Christian, and she claims this
changed her life for the better. “When God told me to
forgive Hitler, I said you have got to be kidding,” she
says. “How could I forgive what this monster did? When
you carry grudges with you, it changes and transforms
you and turns you into a sour pickle.” She channeled
that energy into earning a law degree at age 63, and
writing the book “The Four Laws of Forgiveness:
Memories of Survival During WWII Nazi Germany.” She can
share how forgiving even the most heinous acts can
enable us to live more peaceful, harmonious lives.

19. ==> How Kids Will Save the World

In the wake of the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School
shootings, a number of young survivors such as Emma
Gonzalez eloquently spoke out against gun violence,
while approximately one millions kids across the
country marched to show their support. According to
author and environmental engineer Yasmin Davar, these
kids will not only change the world due to their
actions. Their strong beliefs will also have a major
positive impact, on a local and global level. “We all
act on our beliefs,” Yasmin says. “If we change our
beliefs about others and our planet, and follow that up
with positive action, we can literally change the
world.” Yasmin will share a step-by-step guide for
everyday people as well as world leaders that is
simple, yet extremely powerful. 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 the book “Our Peaceful
Planet: Healing Ourselves and the World for a
Sustainable Future.” Contact her at

20. ==> Is Political Correctness Good for Kids?

These days, nothing’s more American than telling it
like it is – but author Wade Meadows says people are
too blunt, even brutal with each other, all in defiance
of this thing called “political correctness.” A
survivor of verbal and physical abuse, Wade will reveal
the lasting damage harsh, nasty language does to
children and grown-ups, and discuss the power of words
to build up or break down our relationships. Wade can

1. ==> Is the Burden of Proof Irrelevant to Journalists?

As the Kavanaugh ‘circus’ continues on a nearly non-
stop media loop, Jonah Goldberg says journalists aren’t
being objective. “On nearly every question and issue,
the tenor of the press — shockingly — mirrors the tenor
of the Democrats who insist that it falls to Kavanaugh
to disprove these allegations. But that’s not your job,
you supposedly objective journalists. You should care
every bit as much about disproving the allegations of
Swetnick, Ramirez, and — yes — Ford as proving them.”
Goldberg says journalists need to take a look in the
mirror. “You might consider why millions of people love
it when Trump says you are the enemy of the people:
It’s because of how you are behaving right now. You’re
burning credibility at such a rate, you won’t have
enough to get back to base when this is all over.”

Liberty at the American Enterprise Institute and is a

2. ==> Why Kavanaugh Thinks He Deserves High Court Seat

Bryce Covert believes Brett Kavanaugh’s petulant
performance at last week’s confirmation hearing was
partly about clearing his name but mostly because he
believes the Supreme Court seat is rightfully his.
“White men have rocketed to the top of the workplace
and the world stage for virtually all of history, some
of them deserving, some leapfrogging over others who
may have been more deserving. But there is no reason
the men being called out as abusive harassers who treat
women like objects and playthings should keep plowing
forward. It’s only right that their comeuppance
includes stepping aside to let the qualified,
nonabusive people through.” She says, “Despite what
white men may have been led to think for centuries,
they don’t have a birthright to positions of power. We
do not suffer from a dearth of talent. We suffer from
overlooking talent in favor of privileged men, some of
whom have done things that disqualify them.” Bryce
Covert is an independent journalist, a contributing op-
ed writer at The New York Times and a contributing
writer at The Nation. Contact her at

3. ==> GOP Won’t Lose White Women Over Kavanaugh

Dr. Christine Blasey Ford’s testimony before the Senate
Judiciary committee resulted in a flurry of news
coverage about the effect the hearings will have on the
“women’s vote.” But new polls say 70% of Republican
women say they still support Brett Kavanaugh. Jessie
Daniels explains why: “The underlying reason has to do
with the way that conservative white women understand
gender, race and their particular position in the
world. The white women who vote for the GOP believe
that white people are America’s virtuous middle.
Central to this virtuous middle is white identity and,
specifically, white femininity. …Contemporary
conservative white women see charges of sexual assault
or harassment against white men as unfair maneuvers in
the race and gender culture wars.” Jessie Daniels is a
professor at the City University of New York and the
author of the forthcoming book “Tweetstorm: The Rise of
the ‘Alt-Right’ and the Mainstreaming of White
Nationalism.” Contact her at (212) 396-7737;

4. ==> Another Hurricane! How to Survive a Natural
Disaster

As the East Coast braces for Hurricane Leslie, North
Carolina is still recovering from Hurricane Florence
that hit weeks ago. Entire neighborhoods are completely
submerged and because of the rancid standing water,
swarms of huge mosquitos 20 times the size of normal
ones are terrorizing residents. Discuss how to survive
in the aftermath of such destruction when you invite
Christine Perakis on your show. She was alone in her
home in the Caribbean when the most powerful storm ever
recorded in the Atlantic Basin blew the roof of her
house, destroyed everything in it and leaving her
without running water, electricity and telecoms for
months. Christine Perakis, Esq. is a certified mountain
rescuer, an EMT, a 100-ton-licensed boat captain,

5. ==> Real Life Russian Spy Story

With the news this year of Sergei Skripal’s poisoning
in Salisbury, England, as revenge for spying for the
West, as well as the ongoing revelations about Russia’s
interference in democratic elections here and abroad,
invite historian Roland Philipps to share a real life
Russian spy story from 1951. You’ll hear about British
diplomat turned Russian spy Donald Maclean, one of the
most notorious spies ever discovered in the British
government. Maclean was a member of the infamous
“Cambridge Five” espionage ring, a group of young
ideologues who believed Communism was the only path to
world peace. While a respected diplomat at the head of
the American Department in Britain’s Foreign Office he
was also transmitting diplomatic and military secrets
to the USSR. Roland Philipps is the grandson of Sir
Roger Makins – a British Foreign Officer and the last
person to see Maclean before he fled to the Soviet
Union. “A Spy Named Orpha: The Enigma of Donald
Maclean” is his new book. Contact Johanna Ramos-Boyer

7. ==> Sept. Jobs Report: Good News for Workers – But
What about Boomers?

National unemployment statistics for September will be
released tomorrow, heralding the continuation of the
lowest unemployment rates in four decades across all
demographics. Employers are scrambling to find enough
workers to staff their operations but Diane Huth says
they’re overlooking their most experienced source of
trained and vetted talent. Baby boomers still in the
job mart today often struggle to find new jobs or keep
their current positions because of just one reason –
their age. She says the key reasons employers embrace
younger millennials over older workers is their
technology skills, and says job seekers should dedicate
at least half an hour daily to “Tech Up” to bring their
skills up to date. She encourages mature workers to
embrace a culture of lifelong learning, and actively
seek new credentials, certifications, or badges to
increase their relevance and hireability. Huth, known
as The Accidental Career Coach, is a nationally
recognized marketing and branding expert and the author
of “Reinvent Your Career – Beat Age Discrimination to
Land Your Dream Job.” Contact her at (210) 601-7852;

8. ==> Watch Out — Embezzlers Are Using QuickBooks® to
Steal from You

Small business owners/managers, entrepreneurs and
anyone with a bank account will want to hear from
profitability specialist Ruth King on how to protect
their assets from embezzlers—especially when such
criminals use QuickBooks® to access private financial
information. Author of several best-selling finance
books including The Ugly Truth about Cash series, King
will reveal how brazen thieves capture information and
falsify/steal/alter YOUR QuickBooks® record, and why
the crime may not be discovered for weeks or even
months. As your interview guest, King will also reveal
how to identify and address your financial
vulnerabilities before it’s too late. She’ll explore:
How embezzlers hack into online info… The first signs
of tampering… How your checking account is at risk…
What it takes to protect the QuickBooks® programs that
help you run your business… Even what happens if your
employees are in on the scam. Contact Ruth King at

9. ==> Grow Your Business Without Working on Your
Business

Are you working hard? Or working smart? Growing a
business can feel like a daunting task. What most
people don’t realize is that they aren’t focusing on
what will yield long-term success. It’s not what you
say or how you present. It’s not what you look like,
what you wear or your posture. The most critical
success factor you bring to the table is the inner
VALUE you represent. Founder of ThroughConversation
Personal Development Inc., Jean-Paul Gravel will
provide insight on how people perceive your real
“value”. Your audience will learn practical tools for
how to raise their value in the eyes of everyone around
them. He’ll take them through 3 simple steps which will
completely raise their confidence, conviction and
persuasiveness. Gravel has spent 15 years showing
people from all walks of life including high achievers,
entrepreneurs and pro athletes how to unlock their own
deep-seated power and potential to experience
extraordinary results in business and life. Contact

10. ==> What’s it Like to Work for a Narcissist?

Imagine what it would be like to work for someone who
lacks empathy, constantly lies and only views the world
through their own self-interest. Sharon Bahrych
(pronounced Bear-rich) was on the faculty of a new
physician assistant program led by a director who had a
borderline/narcissistic personality disorder. Nearly
everything the director said was a lie, Sharon reports,
and she made other people’s working lives hell. But as
Sharon will tell you, she now believes that God
intended for her to undergo this torment as a means to
bring needed change to the program and that God is
always in control even when bad things happen to us.
She’ll also share the amazing encounter she had five
years later that put the whole experience in
perspective for her. Sharon is a physician’s assistant
who trained at Baylor College of Medicine. She has a
master’s in public health from the University of Texas
School of Public Health. She is the author of
“Practical Disciplines of a Christian Life.” Reach her

11. ==> Fun Show: Play The Doctor Speak Game!

If your doctor tells you your pain is idiopathic, what
does that mean? Or if she says you need to undergo
Decompressive laminectomy, what does that entail? Let
Dr. Tom Neviaser, AKA “The Doctor Whisperer” come on to
your show for a fun interactive segment with your host
and/or callers. He’ll read five funny words or medical
terms for common problems and see if your host or
audience can guess what he’s really saying.
Dr. Tom will also reveal: why people’s pain is not
where they think it is, what to say to get a busy
doctor to see you right away, and fascinating things
about the human body you probably never knew. Reach Dr.
Tom Neviaser at (540) 718-0666; drdeed1@reagan.com?

12. ==> TMI? When Artists Share Health Issues

Whether it’s Demi Lovato and addiction, Michael J. Fox
talking about Parkinson’s Disease or Selena Gomez
discussing Lupus, celebrities these days seem very
willing to talk publicly about their health issues.
Lisa Sniderman (Aoede), a pop singer/songwriter
herself, applauds their honesty and using their
notoriety to help educate and raise awareness about
chronic illness. She says sharing your journey is
powerful—and healing–for you and others who are
struggling. Lisa, who battles a rare, auto-immune
disease, has collaborated with more than 50 artists,
musicians, and authors who have turned to creativity to
heal to create a multimedia live/streaming event
‘Lights in the Darkness-Creating to Heal’ this
December. Lisa says, “My vision is to share how we’ve
become lights for others through our stories and art,
focused on the art of healing.” Lisa has been honored
with more than 50 awards and has been considered
multiple times for a GRAMMY. She is the author of “A
Light in the Darkness: Transcending Chronic Illness
through the Power of Art and Attitude.” Contact her at

13. ==> How Our Educational System is Failing Our Kids

According to Glen Dunzweiler, who taught at the
university level for more than a decade, the American
educational system is failing students by not providing
them with the essential skills they need to negotiate a
lifetime of work. Bring Glen on your show to hear why
business skills should be part of students’ core
education beginning in elementary school so they can
learn how to make money instead of merely earning it
and determine which skills are valued in the
marketplace and why. Glen says, “The idea that a person
can earn a degree that allows them to earn a certain
income is not a stable model anymore. Students need to
know how they can make a living at whatever they decide
to do. Instead, we are turning out students who are one
paycheck away from homelessness because we don’t teach
them how to monetize their value. We teach them how to
get a job.” Dunzweiler is a filmmaker, producer,
director, public speaker and former college professor
whose documentary, “yHomeless,” can be seen on Amazon
Prime. He is the author of “Things I’ve Learned From
The Homeless.” Reach him at (702) 767-7434;

14. ==> Your Kids Might Not Be College Material — They
Could Be Something Better!

It’s been a myth for generations: “You must attend and
finish college to have the best career opportunities
and future income.” But Americans are learning that
college is not a panacea guaranteeing wealth and
success. What it does guarantee would be a high price-
tag and hard-to-handle often credit-wrecking student
loans. And a delay in joining the workforce. And the
possibility that students will choose the wrong major
and hate their eventual jobs, or get embroiled in some
negative influences (drinking, drugs) common to college
campuses. That’s the message of Joe Swinger, author of
the popular “Awaken the Magic Within” and founder/CEO
of Self-Mastery Leadership Academy. Invite him to share
with appreciative audiences many effective 21st Century
alternatives to the college run-around. He will
introduce young people, and their parents/mentors, to
more affordable learning programs/activities,
entrepreneurial goals and lucrative career paths not
requiring an expensive college degree. Ask Joe about
his own story of becoming a successful boss, educator
and innovator. Contact Joe Swinger at (801) 865-7849;

15. ==> Ladies! Learn to Take What’s Yours?

At the outset of the #MeToo movement, people didn’t
believe a large number of women claiming past
harassment, assaults, and abuse. Why didn’t they report
these violations earlier? Women will tell you they’re
reluctant to assert themselves, advocate for
themselves, or even make choices for themselves because
they want to be “nice.” It’s time for women to speak up
for themselves – or even better, author Elizabeth
Trinkaus says, face up to obstacles, ask for their
share, understand their inherent self-worth. For more
than 25 years, Elizabeth has conducted workshops and
done speaking engagements all over the world, helping
people find their worth, speak their mind, and crush
the obstacles that prevent them from fulfilling their
potential. She has worked with professional groups and
individuals alike, and her straightforward, sensible
approach will inspire your listeners. She can be

16. ==> Think Your Childhood Was Bad? Get Over It!

If you think you can’t get over your lousy childhood,
think again. Author Wade Meadows survived a brutal
childhood as a bullied, neglected boy with a mother who
abused him, enduring chaos at home, and sexual abuse at
the hands of a trusted member of his church. Yet,
against all odds, he succeeded – flourishing at work,
finding peace in his adulthood, even forgiving his
mother and tending to her health before her death. Ask
him how he recovered because you can, too! Overcome
your dysfunctional childhood; break the cycle of bad
behavior that spans generations; find love and
happiness despite your messed-up upbringing. He’ll talk
about the three ways he overcame the worst and become a
productive, well-rounded member of society. Wade can be

17. ==> Bad Mistakes Even Good Teachers Make

Did you know that many teachers, in trying to encourage
their students, actually embarrass them? That
embarrassment leads to discouragement, which if left
unchecked kills whatever love of learning our kids
have. All children have the innate desire to learn and
be excited about learning. But as early as
kindergarten, even good teachers are setting them up to
hate school. As a former educator and administrator
both in public schools and universities, Lee Jenkins
saw the need for a new way to lead learning – one that
keeps that “intrinsic motivation” alive from
kindergarten through 12th grade. “What most parents and
teachers don’t realize is that motivation is made up of
both will and thrill. Are your kids working hard and
loving the process?” Chances are they aren’t! Lee
Jenkins, author of “Permission to Forget”, is currently
working on his next book, “The Perfect School”. He now
consults and writes full time with his firm LtoJ
Consulting Group, Inc. Contact Lee Jenkins at

18. ==> Don’t ‘Fall’ for Meds, Use Sound to Cure your Pain!

Fall season doesn’t just change the weather but changes
our body. Cold weather brings many pains, aches to the
joints, eye strain, and for many, emotional pain. Many
people take medications that lead to other health
issues. Many people try yoga, crystals, and natural
herbs for healing. But even after using and trying
different methods, the pain is still there. So when all
fails, why not try something that will cure all your
pain in minutes. Dawn Crystal has shocked the world by
healing people with her voice! Don’t believe it? Just
listen and be healed! She has healed 1000’s of people
and has appeared on many TV shows and radio networks.

19. ==> Laugh Your Way to Success

While growing up in a poor farm family in rural South
Carolina, life was far from amusing for Jane Jenkins
Herlong. Her high school dropout tenant farmer dad
struggled to make ends meet; she was relentlessly
teased for being homely; she was rejected by numerous
colleges; and told that she’d never amount to anything.
She also endured mental and verbal abuse, and loved
ones with addiction and mental illness. But she managed
to become a Miss America contestant, a best-selling
author, popular humorist, gifted singer and sought
after speaker who was inducted into the Speaker Hall of
Fame. She credits her humor for her success. “I
literally laughed my way to ‘mental wealth!’” She can
reveal how anyone can use humor to overcome life’s
darkest moments. Jane is the award-winning author of
four books including her latest “Rhinestones on My
Flip-Flops.” She has also recorded music CDs and
personal growth and comedy DVDs. As a humorist, her
comedy is featured on Sirius XM 97. Contact her at

20. ==> Is the Joy of Having Grandparents is Diminishing?

The New York Times writes that the average age of
first-time mothers is 26, up from 21 in 1972. For
fathers it’s 31, up from 27. Nita Wiggins benefited
from having two surviving grandparents in her life into
her 40s! She can help you enhance your connection to
the older people in your life and to others who are
different from you. Nita cultivated relationships with
her dear grandparents and can share philosophies on how
to enjoy older people, whether grandparents or
neighbors whose families may not live nearby. In Nita’s
case, her grandparents’ lives inspire her in the way
she treats people who have different life experiences
from her own– people who face different challenges.

1. ==> Did Brett Kavanaugh Lie Under Oath?

Bob Schiff, Lisa Graves and Jeff Berman have written a Time magazine piece
entitled ‘Brett Kavanaugh Can’t Be Trusted. We Know Because We Worked as Counsel
to Senators When He Was in the Bush White House.’ In it they write: “At his
first confirmation hearing in April 2004, Kavanaugh said he had never received
material stolen from Democrats. He repeated that testimony in May 2006 under
questioning by both Democratic Senators and Chairman Hatch. But emails released
earlier this month, after originally being deemed ‘committee confidential,’ show
that Kavanaugh was in frequent contact with (Manuel) Miranda and received
material that had been stolen from the Senate Judiciary Committee server. These
emails contradict his testimony under oath. …” Robert Schiff served as chief
counsel for Senator Russ Feingold; Lisa Graves served as chief counsel for
nominations for Sen. Leahy; Jeff Berman served as chief counsel for Senator
Charles Schumer. Contact Bob Schiff at robertfschiff@gmail.com, Lisa Graves at
lisa@documentedinvestigations.org or Jeff Berman at jeffberman@gmail.com

2. ==> Democrats’ Bogus Judicial Temperament Claim

According to Andrew McCarthy, the most risible and blatantly political claim
posited by Democrats is their objection to Brett Kavanaugh’s purported lack of
judicial temperament. “Of course, the best measure we have of how someone will
perform in a government office is how that person has already performed when in
that office, or in a very similar one. And the best measure we have of the
seriousness and good faith of a critic’s claim against a nominee is whether the
critic consistently levels similar charges in analogous situations.” McCarthy
points to Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg and her derogatory comments about Donald
Trump. “If they practiced consistency, Kavanaugh’s critics would be calling for
Ginsburg to step down, or at the very least to recuse herself from any case in
which a component of the Trump administration is a party before the Court.”
Andrew McCarthy, a former top federal prosecutor, is a senior fellow at the
National Review Institute, a contributing editor at National Review, and a well-
known commentator on legal, national security, and political affairs. He also
writes regularly for PJMedia and The New Criterion. Contact him at

3. ==> Daytime TV’s Thom Bierdz’ Tell-All Sex Memoir

Best known for his portrayal of Phillip Chancellor III on the daytime drama “The
Young and The Restless,” Thom Bierdz is out with a bombshell tell-all sharing
his very scandalous (often amusing and embarrassing) sex adventures. In “Young,
Gay & Restless” he holds nothing back, including how a Republican Congressmen
who, when drunk, routinely FB messaged him nude photos of himself. Book an
interview with him and hear how he escaped serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer, was
sexually assaulted by a boss, a TV star, and a Hollywood photographer, and was
propositioned by a bishop and a billionaire. Bierdz has won multiple awards as
an actor, fine artist, writer, and filmmaker, but became disillusioned with the
entertainment industry, and has secluded himself in a cabin in Lake Arrowhead
without TV and minimal contact with the outside world for the past seven years.
His previous book, “Forgiving Troy,” recounts the murder of his mother by his
paranoid schizophrenic brother. Contact Harlan Boll at (626) 296-3757;

4. ==> What You Don’t Know: Prince in the Recording Studio

The wait is over for Prince fans eagerly awaiting his new album, ‘Piano & A
Microphone 1983.’ The previously unreleased material is finally available and
contains nine songs including a new version of “Purple Rain,” “Strange
Relationship” and a cover of Joni Mitchell’s “A Case of You.” Award winning
author Duane Tudahl interviewed more than 40 band members, singers, and
engineers chronicling Prince’s time in the studio during 1983 and 1984. He’ll
share an intimate look at Prince Rogers Nelson as told by those admitted into
his fiercely private inner circle. From the recording studio to his days on
tour, you’ll learn why Prince was so protective of his material, how his music
reflected his innermost thoughts and emotions, and the 3 very important keys to

6. ==> She Survived a Tsunami Like the One in Indonesia

Last week, an earthquake sent 20-foot high waves of water across the Indonesian
island of Sulawesi. Many homes were instantly washed away and many families are
missing. Tsunamis are relatively rare examples of nature at its unpredictable
worst and few people who experience them live to tell the tale. Sana Brauner is
one of the lucky ones. She will share the compelling story of how she survived
the wall of water when her holiday in Thailand turned deadly. Sana’s son and ex-
husband also survived but her mother did not. Her two-year-old daughter has
never been found. Sana can talk about what it is like to lose everything you
hold dear in an instant and the steps she has taken to recover from her 2004
ordeal. She is the author of “The Borrowed Daughter,” a memoir containing

9. ==> We Really Can Do Something About Our Most Massive Problems

Mark Landau says the problems surrounding us today are enormous. “Manmade
climate disruption escalates. The corruption of our democracy is nearly
complete. We edge closer to nuclear terrorism and war. We are ruled by money. We
must face these facts.” He says, “Those who deny them have their heads in the
sand and those who don’t, recoil, self-medicate and entertain them away. Unless
enough of us get behind doing something about them, they will likely reach their
logical end.” Landau says there’s still hope and we can turn the ship in a
better direction, but the time to act is now. Invite Landau on your show and
explore stunning, new, little-known developments and courses of action as well

10. ==> This M.D. Has a Cure for ‘Trump Anxiety Syndrome’

If you’ve been feeling anxious, hopeless, angry, fearful and depressed since the
2016 presidential election, you’re not alone. Trump Anxiety Syndrome (TAS) is a
thing, and physician Steven M. Hall has seen an uptick in patients suffering
from this. According to Dr. Steven, this is exactly what Trump wants. “This
feeds Trump; he lives on this,” he says. “Reasoning doesn’t work with Trump
supporters. Liberal people want to do everything with reason, but it just
doesn’t work. You can’t change other people’s minds.” Not only does TAS affect
people mentally, the stress it causes can also impact their physical health. Dr.
Steven can share simple yet powerful ways to combat the stress, on both the
mental and physical levels. Dr. Steven received his medical degree from
University of Utah School of Medicine and has been practicing family medicine
since 1985. He is the author of “The 7 Tools of Healing: Unlock Your Inner

15. ==> Is Staying in Your Home the Best Choice for Retirees?

Many retirees want to stay in their home as long as possible. After all, it’s
often where they raised their children and is located near their faith community
and familiar shopping spots. Financial planner Penelope Tzougros helps people
dispassionately evaluate whether staying put or going makes the best economic
sense. Tzougros (pronounced Sue-grows) will share stories, insights, fears and
clever solutions her clients made when facing the same dilemma. “Ultimately,”
she says, “this is not a real estate decision but a decision about what retirees
need to have the best life possible.” She adds, “And the reality is that when a
house’s maintenance costs are draining people’s savings, it is no longer an
asset.” Penelope S. Tzougros, Ph.D., ChFC, CLU, is a Financial Consultant,

18. ==> Is Cell Phone Addiction Hijacking Your Family?

Being a child used to be filled with possibilities: playing in the mud, climbing
jungle gyms and pretending to be anything that could be imagined. But today,
more children than ever are dealing with ADHD, anxiety and depression. Digital
addiction may be to blame, says Patsie McCandless, a retired primary school
teacher. She says, “We can’t turn back the clock on cell phones, video games and
tablets, all of which take parents and children away from each other, but we can
and must decide to be more present in our children’s lives to support the magic
of their growth and learn how to have fun with them again.” You’ll learn why the
original tech leaders didn’t allow their children to have digital devices and
how parents end up choosing their cell phones over their children without even

1. ==> Kavanaugh: Senators’ Bear Biggest Burden

As the Senate considers Dr. Christine Blasey Ford’s
accusation that Judge Brett Kavanaugh sexually
assaulted her 30 years ago, senators find themselves
asking a basic question familiar to all lawyers: Who
bears the burden of proof—the accuser or the accused?
Adam J. White says, “The greater burden is the one
borne by the Senate itself, which now must come to a
decision on Kavanaugh’s nomination, and do so in the
manner that will best promote transparency and fact-
finding in this nomination and all future nominations.”
White says, “If belated accusations without significant
evidence are enough to halt this nomination, then every
future Senate Judiciary Committee hearing to consider a
Supreme Court nomination will occur under a cloud of
uncertainty as to whether post-hearing accusations are
imminent. Adam J. White, a research fellow at the
Hoover Institution, and director of the Center for the
Study of the Administrative State at George Mason
University’s Antonin Scalia Law School, testified
before the Senate Judiciary Committee in favor of Judge
Kavanaugh’s nomination. Contact him at (212) 599-7000;
communications@manhattan-institute.org or @adamjwhitedc

2. ==> The Problem with ‘Boys Will Be Boys’

According to Jill Filipovic, the #MeToo reckoning is
still coming — not just for the prominent men who use
their power to exploit others, but also for the boys
they once were. She says, “Teenage boyhood continues to
accept, sometimes even hinge on, misogyny and ill
treatment of girls — usually girls over whom boys have
relative social power. Then we wonder why those same
boys become the men who mistreat women, discriminate
against us in the workplace, or look the other way when
other men harass, bully or abuse us.” She adds, “We are
recognizing, finally, that misogynist men are made, not
born. The task, now, is to interrupt the making.
Whatever happens with the Kavanaugh nomination, one
hopes that this ugly turn through his teenage past will
at least help us to stop raising boys in this way.”
Jill Filipovic is a journalist based in New York and
Nairobi, Kenya, and the author of the book “The H-Spot:
The Feminist Pursuit of Happiness.” Contact her at
jill.filipovic@gmail.com

3. ==> Why Women Don’t Report Sexual Assault

Many people believe as Donald Trump does, that victims
of sexual assault or their parents would surely report
such incidents to the police. That’s just one of the
myths surrounding sexual assault that Dr. Jeanne Sanner
can bust at a time when the country’s attention is
riveted to the confirmation hearing for Supreme Court
nominee Brett Kavanaugh. When she was 19 and a virgin,
Dr. Sanner was raped by a stranger poolside at an out-
of-town motel where she was staying with a girlfriend.
She’ll explain her reasons for not reporting the crime
which led to pregnancy and reveal the most important
lesson she learned from being sexually abused. Dr.
Sanner has a doctorate in spiritual studies, a master’s
in education and a bachelor’s in psychology. She is the
author of “Finding Unconditional Love a Little Peace at
a Time.” Reach her at (949) 460-9450;
jeannesanner@yahoo.com

4. ==> What Parents Need to Know: The Dark Side of
College

Studies of American campus life indicate that between 3
percent and 8 percent of college women will report
being raped by the time they graduate and nearly a
quarter will experience some type of sexual assault.
Almost 700,000 college students—male and female—will be
assaulted by someone who has been drinking. About
100,000 will be sexually assaulted or raped while
someone is abusing alcohol. Samuel Staley, author of
“Unsafe On Any Campus? College Sexual Assault and What
We Can Do About It,” says while colleges and
universities ramp up their programming to help students
cope with such tragedies, parents are virtually ignored
in the discussion. He says parents need to become more
informed about modern campus life, especially its rocky
sexual terrain. “Most parents will be shocked to learn
how different the world their children are stepping
into is from their own experiences at the same age. The
hyper-sexualization of campus life, for example, has
relegated emotional intimacy to a post-sex thought. The
side effect has been to further marginalize women in
college culture.” Samuel Staley is a Research Fellow at
the Independent Institute and Director of the DeVoe L.
Moore Center in the College of Social Sciences at
Florida State University. Contact Robert Ade at (510)

5. ==> Trump on Iran: Who’s the Terrorist?

Donald Trump, speaking about Iran at the UN this week,
said, “We cannot allow the world’s leading sponsor of
terrorism to possess the planet’s most dangerous
weapons.” But Beau Grosscup says, “In Trump’s speech,
as is often the case from U.S. government
pronouncements, the emphasis is on counter-terrorism
with Saudis. Among other things, this ignores how U.S.
and Saudi policies have enabled groups like ISIS and al
Qaeda. We saw this same ‘us vs. them’ approach in the
State Department ‘report on terrorism’ that was just
released last week. Particularly notable was Trump
painting the Saudis as part of the solution in the
Yemen war when they have been unleashing horrific
bombing in that country with catastrophic results.” He
adds, “The demonization of Iran was particularly ironic
given that civilians were just killed in what would
ordinarily be called a terrorist attack there.”
Grosscup is emeritus professor at California State
University, Chico. His books include “The Newest
Explosions of Terrorism” and “Strategic Terror: The
Politics and Ethics of Aerial Bombardment.” Contact him

6. ==> Can the U.S. Win This Weekend’s Ryder Cup?

The best golfers from the USA and Europe will face off
this weekend at the 89th Ryder Cup at Le Golf National
in France. Will the team of U.S. golfers which includes
Brooks Koepka, Dustin, Johnson, Justin Thomas, and
Tiger Woods prevail, taking the cup for the first time
on European soil in 25 years? Interview Andre Huu for
some insight on that topic as well as whether Tiger
Woods will continue his inspiring comeback and what the
game of golf can teach anyone about resilience and
living life to the fullest. Huu is a former physical
therapist and golf enthusiast who has written “The
Round of Your Life.” Reach him at (832) 418-8860;

7. ==> Saturday is National Ghost Hunting Day!

What’s it like growing up in family homes surrounded by
ghosts and their stories? Interview Ivan Obolensky and
find out! Ivan’s rich personal history includes his
grandfather Serge Obolensky – the famed ‘Prince of New
York’, and his grandmother Alice (of Astor fame), who
died holding an Egyptian book of the dead on her chest.
Convinced that people live on after death, she proved
it by scaring off governesses and attracting a large
number of black cats that kept returning to her home on
61st Street in NYC even after extermination was tried.
The family home was finally exorcised. Ivan’s
grandfather, Serge, had his own ghost stories to tell
including one about a Captain, supposedly recovering
from TB in the Crimea, appeared to Serge’s mother and a
butler at the family country home many miles away… and
then vanished before their eyes! They later learned he
was already dead. Ivan Obolensky is an author and a
true Renaissance man in his own right. His novel “Eye
of the Moon” won Best First Book (Fiction) in the
IRDA’s. Contact Ivan at (818) 662-9731;

8. ==> HBO’s ‘The Deuce’ – Meet the Princess of 42nd
Street

HBO’s acclaimed series The Deuce is back! The show is
set in New York’s Times Square when pornography,
prostitutes and drugs were rampant. Romola Hodas says
watching the series with an actor playing her dad is
surreal; like watching her life play out on TV! Romola
s father was known as Times Square’s King of Porn. He
almost single-handedly developed Times Square into New
York’s hub of pornography and adult entertainment in
the 60s through the 80s, when peep shows and live sex
acts lined the streets. As the oldest daughter of
Martin Hodas, Romola grew up in a chaotic whirlwind of
swingers, mental illness, drugs and organized crime. At
the same time, she was also protecting her three
siblings from a mother with bipolar and personality
disorder. Invite her on your show and hear how she
survived two attempted kidnappings, took family
vacations with mobsters, and what she thinks about the
series. Listeners can even win a copy of her book “The
Princess of 42nd Street surviving my childhood as the
Daughter of Times Square’s King of Porn.” Contact

10. ==> The Best Kept Secret in Your Insurance Policy

Most people buy insurance from a friendly agent at a
specific time and for a specific purpose… but did you
know that 90% of all policies lapse before maturity? Or
that when you don’t need your policy any longer you
could sell it? For cash? Chances are you have no idea
the hidden cash value of your policy… or that you are
paying more than you should for the policy you have.

these and other best kept secrets that insurance
companies don’t want you to know! He can explain what

12. ==> What’s it Like to Work for a Narcissist?

Imagine what it would be like to work for someone who
lacks empathy, constantly lies and only views the world
through their own self-interest. Sharon Bahrych
(pronounced Bear-rich) was on the faculty of a new
physician assistant program led by a director who had a
borderline/narcissistic personality disorder. Nearly
everything the director said was a lie, Sharon reports,
and she made other people’s working lives hell. But as
Sharon will tell you, she now believes that God
intended for her to undergo this torment as a means to
bring needed change to the program and that God is
always in control even when bad things happen to us.
She’ll also share the amazing encounter she had five
years later that put the whole experience in
perspective for her. Sharon is a physician’s assistant
who trained at Baylor College of Medicine. She has a
master’s in public health from the University of Texas
School of Public Health. She is the author of

13. ==> How to Use Procrastination to Your Advantage

Maybe it’s you, maybe it’s your kid. When faced with a
decision or assignment, you wait until the last
possible moment to act. Procrastination can turn into
the enemy, but Mariann Adams will show you how to use
it to your advantage! She’ll explain the neuroscience
behind procrastination and how we’re all hard-wired to
do it, as well as how it affects ability and self-
esteem. She says, “Procrastination is a form of
performance anxiety. It isn’t a defect, it actually
means the brain and body are working as they should.
And procrastination isn’t overcome by force; it’s
overcome by a core understanding of how the body and
brain work, and using it to one’s advantage.” Mariann
Adams, MS, NCTM, has decades of experience as a teacher
and performer, has presented internationally, and is
experienced with radio and TV. She has done extensive
research on the psychological, physiological,
neurological, and interpersonal aspects of anxiety
elimination. She’s the author of “Boost Core Power and

14. ==> This M.D. Can Cure Autism and ADHD in 30 Days

While the majority of medical professionals believe
that there is no cure for autism, Dr. Rajalakshmi
Kandaswamy strongly disagrees. In fact, she has helped
hundreds of children with non-verbal autism and ADHD,
without ever meeting them in person! She accomplishes
this through her unique remote healing method called
Intent Healing™. “I am the only autism expert and
expert in nonverbal autism who is a medical doctor and
a healer who is helping nonverbal autistic children
from all over the world communicate through speech in
10 (or less) remote healing sessions, without meeting
or seeing any of them in person,” she says. With over
25 years of experience in remote healing, she recently
was recognized by Buzzfeed as one of five professionals
in the world to watch out for in the autism arena. She
is the author of the book “How to Heal Autism and ADHD
in 30 Days: The Phenomenally Powerful Breakthrough of
Intent Healing,” and a graduate of India’s premier
medical college C.M.C Vellore. Contact her at

fries? Would it surprise you to learn that these foods
might also lead you to experience more stress? It’s
true, says Gillian Padgett, a psychotherapist,

16. ==> Mental Health Day is Oct. 10: What is Emotional
Conditioning?

Psychiatrist Christine Adams says emotional dysfunction
and illness are far more widespread than mental
illness, even though the two are frequently lumped
together. She explains, “Most of us have emotional
distress and upheaval on a continuum from mild to
severe. Compare that to the one to three percent of
people who have mental illnesses such as schizophrenia,
bipolar disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and
autism. What the rest of us suffer are problems arising
from our emotional conditioning that create
relationship conflict, not from brain pathology.” Dr.
Adams says we experience emotional illnesses in the
form of anxiety, depression, sleep problems, eating
disorders, substance abuse, and psychosomatic aches and
pains. Invite her to discuss the ways we are
emotionally conditioned in childhood and why it leads
many people to live life on autopilot. Christine Adams,
M.D., is a child, adolescent, and adult psychiatrist
who has been a guest on numerous radio shows and
stations across the country. She is co-author with the
late Homer B. Martin, M.D., of the new book “Living on
Automatic: How Emotional Conditioning Shapes Our Lives
and Relationships.” Contact her at (502) 473-0093;

17. ==> What Your Parents Never Taught You About
Overcoming Adversity

When you were young, did your parents protect you by
attempting to fix your problems? Did they encourage you
to keep smiling and suppress any painful emotions? If
so, they may not have realized their kids could face a
lifetime of pain from all the emotional baggage they’ve
been carrying around. “Parents may say, ‘Don’t
embarrass me, make me proud, you’re an adult now,’ but
never fully deal with the emotions behind each of those
statements,” Dr. Dee Carroll says. As a result, when
teens go off to college or move away, they’re likely to
run into problems they don’t know how to handle. “It’s
not until they get to a point of no return that they
reach out. At this point, they are knee deep in
adversity and never got the memo on how to deal with
it.” Dr. Dee urges parents to start early in teaching
their kids how to face adversity and stop hiding from
their emotions. She can also share her story of how she
overcame insurmountable odds using her ‘freedom’
technique. She is a speaker, coach, management
consultant and the author of “Emotional Emancipation:
Step into Your Freedom, Reinvent Your Challenges and
Move Beyond.” Contact her at (301) 587-0700;

18. ==> Tips to Get Boys Talking

For countless parents, the question “what happened in
school today?” is met by a grunt or a terse “nothing.”
This is especially true when parents ask their sons for
an update. Diane Auten is an expert on communicating
with boys and the parent of two sons. She can explain
the gold mine of information parents can glean by
driving their sons and their friends to school and
other activities and the ways communicating with sons
differs from communicating with daughters. She can also
share funny stories from her book, about common,
relatable things that happen to boys at school. Diane
Auten is the author “The Joys of Raising Boys: the
Good, the Bad, and the Hilarious.” A professor and
communication expert, she wrote down the crazy
questions her sons Bradley and Nate asked in the first
ten years of their lives and recorded the conversations
that ensued after she answered them. Diane frequently
speaks to parents about communicating more effectively
with their kids. Reach her at (805) 440-6532;

19. ==> This Autumn, Don’t ‘Fall’ for Meds: Use Sound

Fall season doesn’t just change the weather but changes
our body. Cold weather brings many pains, aches to the
joints, eye strain, and for many, emotional pain. Many

=======================================
1. ==> Live from New York – Trump Addresses UN

Heads of state, including Donald Trump, are scheduled
to begin addressing the UN General Assembly Today.
Tomorrow, with the U.S. as the rotating president of
the UN Security Council this month, Trump is
scheduled to chair a meeting of the Council. Invite
John Paul, author of the new book “Of Foxes and
Chickens: Oligarchy and Power in the UN Security
Council” to discuss what is expected to go on. “The
biggest question will be whether Trump will use the
opportunity to announce new sanctions or even military
operations against Iran. Rumor has it that Washington
is pressing NATO and other allies to join
it, Israel and Saudi Arabia in a coalition of the
willing to overthrow the perfidious mullahs and restore
democracy to Iran.” He adds, “For Trump in particular,
it is a chance to reach for global
grandiosity, to rail against foreign enemies, to
‘disrupt’ the status quo and to bask in the limelight
of the frenzied news media.” John Paul is also author
of “Syria Unmasked” and was executive director
of Global Policy Forum, a think tank that monitors the
UN, for nearly 20 years. He was a longtime editor of
the Oxford Companion to Politics of the World and
executive director of the Middle East Research
and Information Project. Contact him at
james.paul.nyc@gmail.com

2. ==> Lock Up Cosby & Throw Away Celebrity Role Models

Bill Cosby’s sentencing hearing began yesterday and
we’re once again forced to watch a hero’s very public
fall from grace. Regardless of Cosby’s legal sentence,
John Huber, Ph.D., says millions who grew up
watching The Cosby Show thinking of Bill Cosby as a
pseudo-surrogate father – will feel shock and betrayal
again. “These days it seems to happen far too often
that beloved personas and role models are
revealed to have reprehensible skeletons in their
closets. Who is really who they say they are? Can
anyone be trusted to set the right example?” The
lesson, Huber says, is “Children and adults don’t have
to turn on the TV to find an adequate role model and
they don’t have to search far and wide. They just have
to live their lives with honor and integrity and they
will become a role model unto themselves.”
Dr. John Huber is a clinical forensic psychologist and
the chairman for Mainstream Mental Health, a non-profit
mental health organization. Dr. Huber has appeared on
hundreds of radio shows and dozens of
national television programs. Contact Ryan McCormick at
(516) 901-1103; (919) 377-1200.

3. ==> Why Women Don’t Report Sexual Assault

Many people believe as Donald Trump does, that victims
of sexual assault or their parents would surely report
such incidents to the police. That’s just one of the
myths surrounding sexual assault that Dr.
Jeanne Sanner can bust at a time when the country’s
attention is riveted to the confirmation hearing for
Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh. When she was 19
and a virgin, Dr. Sanner was raped by a
stranger poolside at an out-of-town motel where she was
staying with a girlfriend. She’ll explain her reasons
for not reporting the crime which led to pregnancy and
reveal the most important lesson she
learned from being sexually abused. Dr. Sanner has a
doctorate in spiritual studies, a master’s in education
and a bachelor’s in psychology. She is the author of
“Finding Unconditional Love a Little Peace
at a Time.” Reach her at (949) 460-9450;
jeannesanner@yahoo.com

4. ==> Is Trump’s Robust Economy All ‘Smoke and
Mirrors’?

President Donald Trump says we have “the best economy
ever!” Professor Kenneth Barnes begs to differ. Author
of “Redeeming Capitalism”, Barnes refers to our current
economic system as ‘postmodern
capitalism’, and argues that we have created a system
devoid of a moral compass and resistant, if not
impervious to ethical constraint. “Built on mountains
of debt and driven by greed and excess, we are
repeating the sins of the recent past,” he claims.
Rejecting utopian alternatives, however, Dr. Barnes
argues instead for ‘virtuous capitalism’- an economic
system with all of the wealth-generating
possibilities of the capitalism, plus the wider social
benefits of the capitalism we desire. Prior to his
academic career, Kenneth Barnes spent many years as a
senior international executive for multiple
multibillion dollar companies. He currently teaches at
Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary. Contact Jason
Jones at (512) 720-2996; Jason@jonesliterary.com

5. ==> What You Don’t Know about Prince in the
Recording Studio: Told by Those Who Knew Him Best

The wait is over for Prince fans eagerly awaiting his
new album, ‘Piano & A Microphone 1983.’ The previously
unreleased material is finally available and contains
nine songs including a new version of
“Purple Rain,” “Strange Relationship” and a cover of
Joni Mitchell’s “A Case of You.” Award winning author
Duane Tudahl interviewed more than 40 band members,
singers, and engineers chronicling Prince’s
time in the studio during 1983 and 1984. He’ll share an
intimate look at Prince Rogers Nelson as told by those
admitted into his fiercely private inner circle. From
the recording studio to his days on
tour, you’ll learn why Prince was so protective of his
material, how his music reflected his innermost
thoughts and emotions, and the 3 very important keys to
Prince’s incredible success. Duane Tudahl is a
long-time documentary director and producer in the
entertainment industry and a former stand-up comic. An
expanded paperback version of his best-selling book,
“Prince and the Purple Rain Era Studio
Sessions: 1983 and 1984,” which includes details about
hundreds of his recording sessions, is set for release
in this fall. Contact him at (818) 726-8638 (CA);

6. ==> Real Life Russian Spy Story

With the news this year of Sergei Skripal’s poisoning
in Salisbury, England, as revenge for spying for the
West, as well as the ongoing revelations about Russia’s
interference in democratic elections here
and abroad, invite historian Roland Philipps to share a
real life Russian spy story from 1951. You’ll hear
about British diplomat turned Russian spy Donald
Maclean, one of the most notorious spies ever
discovered in the British government. Maclean was a
member of the infamous “Cambridge Five” espionage ring,
a group of young ideologues who believed Communism was
the only path to world peace. While a
respected diplomat at the head of the American
Department in Britain’s Foreign Office he was also
transmitting diplomatic and military secrets to the
USSR. Roland Philipps is the grandson of Sir Roger
Makins – a British Foreign Officer and the last person
to see Maclean before he fled to the Soviet Union. “A
Spy Named Orpha: The Enigma of Donald Maclean” is his
new book. Contact Johanna Ramos-Boyer at

7. ==> Getting Back to Business after a Hurricane

Hurricane Florence not only destroyed homes throughout
the Carolinas, it also battered thousands of businesses
in the region. Donna Childs, a former reinsurance
executive, can explain what businesses now
face after the massive storm, where they can turn for
help, and how business owners, just like home owners,
should plan for disasters. Donna’s been honored by the
American Red Cross for her volunteer work
helping small businesses in the Gulf Coast states
recover from Hurricanes Katrina, Gustav and Ike. She’s
dealt with disasters around the world and at Ground
Zero, where her business and home were based on

8. ==> How to Grow Your Business Without Working on
Your Business

Are you working hard? Or working smart? Growing a
business can feel like a daunting task. What most
people don’t realize is that they aren’t focusing on
what will yield long-term success. It’s not what you
say or how you present. It’s not what you look like,
what you wear or your posture. The most critical
success factor you bring to the table is the inner
VALUE you represent. Founder of ThroughConversation
Personal Development Inc., Jean-Paul Gravel will
provide insight on how people perceive your real
“value”. Your audience will learn practical tools for
how to raise their value in the eyes of everyone
around them. He’ll take them through 3 simple steps

conviction and persuasiveness. Gravel has spent 15

thought would be perfect for television? Well now you
can find out! Invite award-winning screenwriter,
author, TV/film producer, journalist, and TV host
Maryann Ridini Spencer to reveal what it takes to write

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: “Who am I now? What
weaknesses are holding me back, and how can I conquer
them? How can I reinvent myself to be who I
truly choose to be?” She’ll also share 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. “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.” She is the author of “Becoming Madam
Widow.” Contact her at katherine@katherinewebster.com

11. ==> How to Get the Best Medical Care: When Should
You Get a 2nd Opinion?

Are you really getting the best medical care? We like
to believe that when we’re being treated by a physician
or medical team that they know all the answers related
to our illness and treatment. But Nancy
Michaels, a patient satisfaction expert says patients
can no longer rely on the pros alone. “As consumers, we
need to claim control over our health and be sure we
understand what all of our options are
related to diagnosis and recommended treatment,” she
warns. Michaels, who regularly speaks to medical and
health-care audiences about ways to improve patient
satisfaction, engagement and the overall
patient experience, also delivers advice gleaned from
her own personal experience as a patient. In 2005, in
what seemed like an instant, she found herself in a
health crisis that nearly killed her twice.
She’ll explain what every patient should know when
seeking medical treatment including when—and how—to get
a 2nd opinion, how to research your condition and how
to access your doctor’s notes in your files.
Nancy Michaels provides inspirational speeches on such
topics as “Lessons Learned from Dying” to audiences
around the world. Her latest book is “Patient Speak, 7
Communication Practices to Improve Patient
and Family Experience.” Contact her at (617) 905-4711;

12. ==> TMI? When Artists Share Health Issues

Whether it’s Demi Lovato and addiction, Michael J. Fox
talking about Parkinson’s Disease or Selena Gomez
discussing Lupus, celebrities these days seem very
willing to publicly discuss their health issues.
Lisa Sniderman (Aoede), a pop singer/songwriter
herself, applauds their honesty and using their

chronic illness. She says sharing your journey is
powerful—and healing–for you and others who are

art, focused on the art of healing.” Lisa has been

13. ==> It’s Pain Awareness Month: Are You Starting to
Make Dad Sounds?

Oy! Do you find yourself making the same noises your
parents make when they get up from a chair or sit down?
If this sounds like you—or someone you know—you’ll want
to interview Anna Lee, M.D., a board-
certified pain management physician. During Pain
Awareness Month in September, Dr. Lee can answer such
questions as why are so many people walking around in
pain? Why do we sometimes wake up with numb
hands? Where does pain really originate? Why are so
many physicians so bad at treating pain? Anna Lee,

Pennsylvania and is the developer of an FDA-approved
pain treatment that draws clients from across the

14. ==> How Being Disorganized Can Endanger Your Life

We have all heard how you can save money, time,
property and possessions by being more organized. But
wise vs. lackluster organization habits can even save
your life! That’s the message of RN/APRN (nurse
practitioner) and author Anne McAwley-LeDuc, who is
creating a new movement for maintaining personal health
history — a life-saving practice! With the release of

“Personal Health Organizer: Record Your Medical and
Dental History, Birth Through Life,” Anne is helping
people keep their health records, including: medical
conditions, surgeries, childhood health
history, orthopedic history, immunizations, allergies,

easy to forget key health facts, to your peril,

involve travel, moving, and establishing relationships
with new doctors/clinics/hospitals. Invite Anne to
discuss her strategies for staying “in the know” about
your health journey. Contact her at (860)

15. ==> Simple Remedies for Burnout and Compassion
Fatigue

Being a caregiver, whether professionally or within
your family, is a hazardous job currently held by some
43.5 million Americans. Sheila Collins, Ph.D., says the
stress not only puts caregivers at risk
for serious health problems, they’re also at risk for
burnout and compassion fatigue. “Self-care continues to
be all but neglected in the professional programs that
train people in helping careers and is
an essential skill for caregivers to master for their
own health.” Collins can explain why caregiving is so
dangerous, what healthy anger is and how to express it,
as well as some interesting trends in
caregiving. Collins and Christine Gautreaux, MSW, are
co-authors of “Stillpoint: A Self-Care Playbook for
Caregivers to Find Ease and Time to Breathe, and
Reclaim Joy.” Collins’ other books include
“Warrior Mother: Fierce Love, Unbearable Loss, and the

caregiving to her two adult children and her best
friend. Contact Sheila Collins at (817)

16. ==> Stop Blaming Social Media for Kids’ Depression

Social media has a firm hold on Americans, especially
kids and young adults. With rising rates of depression
and suicide among the same group, many wonder if
there’s a connection. Joffre McClung says there
is, but it’s not really the root of the problem. “The
issue isn’t so much the social media itself, it’s that
young people are constantly looking outside of
themselves for their worth, value and sense of
being good enough.” She’ll explain the many ways lack
of self-love affects our lives and share concrete ways
to take your power back from social media. You’ll hear
how parents can help kids develop their
own sense of self-love and why you should incorporate
five simple self-gratitude practices into your daily
life. Joffre McClung has appeared on numerous radio and
TV programs including CBS TV-Austin TX,
Hay House Radio and The Joe Franklin Show. A former
media producer, independent filmmaker, and author,
Joffre takes the esoteric and brings it back down to
earth with a big dose of common sense. Her latest

17. ==> Why Kids Who Hate School Are Often Smarter than
Everyone Else

You would think that the students in school who are
making the highest grades would be the ones who love
learning the most. “Not so!” says Lee Jenkins, author
and former school administrator. “Those
students have figured out it’s nothing more than a
game, a game that they play and that they win.” The
game is the “cram it and forget it game” – which some
students really excel at. Ever since grade 1
spelling they know to study for that Friday quiz and
then they can forget it… because it will most likely
never be seen again. Lee was determined to come up with
a different way to organize learning… a
different way to look at learning and encouraging our
kids so that how they learn in the classroom keeps the
joy of learning alive – he calls it “the intrinsic
motivation” that every kindergartener brings
with them on the first day of school. Lee Jenkins,
author of “Permission to Forget”, is currently working
on his next book “The Perfect School.” He consults and
writes full-time with his firm LtoJ
Consulting Group, Inc. Contact him at (800) 559-9798;

18. ==> Is Our Rude Way of Treating One Another Bad for
Children?

These days, nothing’s more American than telling it
like it is – but author Wade Meadows says people are
too blunt, even brutal with each other, all in defiance
of this thing called “political
correctness.” A survivor of verbal and physical abuse,
Wade will reveal the lasting damage harsh, nasty
language does to children and grown-ups, and discuss
the power of words to build up or break down our
relationships. Wade can be reached at (225) 397-0785;

kickboxing with love of family? “The Lonely Eagle” by
national South African wrestling champion Stephanus J.
de Klerk is a raw look at kickboxing and

reckless behavior almost destroys his

separate ways. When the family is in danger of losing
their farm, Paul prepares for one last championship

understand why he fights: for money, for glory, or for
family. Filled with action and drama, “The Lonely
Eagle” is an intense read perfect for fans of movies

20. ==> How to Make Small Talk with a Trump Supporter

You arrive at your new friend’s party only to discover
they and all of their friends are fervent Trump
supporters. And you despise Trump! This could be your

shouting match, find out what it is they love about
Trump, which of his policies speak the most to them,
and why. Understanding could be the key to bridging
the great divide in America at the moment. So
