In Other Words

This is one of the most fun shows I've done.  And there is some powerful information in here.  Especially for women, but for everyone.

This one's invaluable.  Deanna talks you (well, me) through finding the plug that does what you want it to do, installing and activating it, and setting it to work the way you want it to.

Less than 20% divorce rate.  (This while the country as a whole has a divorce rate of about 53%.)  It's the swing community.  Yeah, really.  They have a stronger commitment to marriage than most of the country.  Everything image you have about swingers will be blasted by this podcast.  To listen to the full broadcast, click here.

Transgender is becoming more understood in our culture.  Or at least, it's more recognized.  But that's the problem, it isn't understood.  I spoke with Erica Burns, a transgender female and Robert Lee, a gender-neutral person.  That was a new one for me. 

Erica's story is one you've heard before: She always knew she was born into the wrong body.  About 9 months ago, at 23, she took action ... and hormones. 

Robert goes by "he" because he was born into a male body, and he is comfortable with it.  But it doesn't stop there.  He is not a hermaphrodite.  He calls himself "gender fluid."

This podcast is the first 20 minutes of the show.  To hear the full hour, click here after July 29.

The longest continuously-running jazz supper club in the country, known around the world, turns 50 the week of this broadcast – July 25, 2015.  The club has hosted pretty much every jazz name you can think of, and many of them are returning to the club in its 50th Anniversary year.  Owner Harry Schnipper is also passionate about jazz education, developing the next generation of jazz performers and jazz listeners.  These are the highlights.

Our oceans provide us with most of the oxygen we breathe.  But the oceans are dying.  Our world is very interconnected.  If the oceans die, we die.  George and Carol Stover of Adventure Videos knew they had to do something to raise awareness of this problem.  So, they created Aqua Kids, a really fun TV show hosted by kids.  In every episode, the kids walk us through a different environment and talk about how we can help save it. 

James Piper Bond (the names Piper and Bond go back to  the origins of Baltimore) runs Living Classrooms, a learning-by-doing school system.  He has taken over failing schools, and now their graduates are going on to college! Their programs for ex-offenders boasts a recidivism rate in the single digits.  The organization is beginning to be used as a model across the country.

I started working with online marketing experts Social Buzz Pros about 2 months ago.  Look at how much they've increased my visibility in that brief time!  And tips on doing this for yourself.

Are vaccines bad for you? We know they prevent diseases such as measles, diphtheria, and of course, small pox. Or do they?  And if they do, is there a risk involved?  Does it outweigh the benefits?  Do childhood vaccines cause autism and other conditions?  If we don't use them, will we have massive outbreaks of diseases we thought we'd seen the last of?  

I am not taking a stand on this, that's not my job.  But Claire Dwoskin, the director of Children's Medical Safety Research Institute, makes some very compelling arguments.  Click here to listen to the full hour.

This was my most fun show ever!  Never have I had a guest flirt so outrageously with me (it went both ways, of course). And as a country singer, this guy is good!  If you haven't heard of Woody Bradshaw yet, you will.  You'll love this one.
