I’ve always been a lover and supporter of all people. I live a life of inclusiveness. Despite being open hearted/minded to all aspects of the #LGBTQIA community, I didn’t really understand transgender. I was, of course, sympathetic and supportive. However, being honest, I didn’t really understand it. In the first half of tonight’s show, I share a crazy story of coincidence and happenstance that led to a personal awakening and a deeper understanding. The story is almost unbelievable and I wish that anyone who didn’t understand could feel what I felt. The second half of the show will feature a great discussion with author/consultant/activist/actress/Superwoman, Eliza VanCort about her new bestseller book, “A Woman’s Guide to Claiming Space”. We talk about her journey and her desire to uplift and inspire others. It’s a discussion that both women and men can engage in to better open the lines of communication and mutual respect.

The first half of tonight’s show we talk Track and Field with Kevin Beck (author and sportswriter). We talk about the suspension of Shelby Houlihan. The science behind nandrolone and the possibilities that she could have tested positive from tainted pork. I share my own story of how I was accidentally on steroids 20 years ago. The second half of the show will feature a great discussion with author Willie Randolph about his first book, “Faith in the Eye of the Storm”. Like myself, Willie enjoyed a long career as an NCAA Division I coach. He was the head coach at The University of New Orleans when Hurricane Katrina hit and the need to step up in the face of massive adversity and lead. It’s about how his Faith is the foundation for strength when life hits you hard. Join me LIVE every Tuesday night at 8pm. With 1000s listeners in over a dozen countries, this variety talk show features discussion and guests from all walks of life. It is as eclectic as my life and it is a journey through all areas of my life. From being an elite coach to screwing up my own life and losing everything to becoming a fulltime actor and owning three successful businesses and starting my own animal rescue. It’s about how everyone’s life is a multi-act play.

This week Kevin talks about the Jamey Johnson concert he promoted at the Oil Palace in Tyler, Texas. The concert industry is a complex and risky business. Making everyone happy is impossible. Kevin talks about the moving parts and how they can, or cannot, fit together. Moving on to talking about acting and callback advice from Kevin's tremendous amount of experience, having done over 150 commercials and ads all over the country. The second half of the show digs into a fascination of Kevin, which he touched on in the last show, which is the unexplained. 10 years ago, Kevin was hunting in the Shawnee State Forest in SE Ohio, alone, in the pitch black of the early morning and he had a terrifying encounter with...well...we aren't sure. Joining Kevin to talk about that experience is world-renowned Bigfoot expert and researcher, Joedy Cook.

Owning my own LIVE music production and promotion company is fun and exciting. I have loved music my entire life and having the ability to be a promoter fits my personality. There is a huge risk and gamble and in this business you have to be a tough businessman. You have to be assertive or you will get taken advantage of. I talk this week about some of those challenges. However, one great thing I love about music is that it has led my on some incredible adventures. My best friend, Kramer (yes, he just goes by one name) is also a HUGE music buff and collector. We are going to share one of our epic road trip stories that music took us on in 2017 to Ireland and Northern Ireland. The second half of my show, I have an acting friend who is also a huge music lover and lives a very unique lifestyle,; similar to mine. Marco Rosario (IG and Twitch.tv: @djmarcofromphilly) joins me to chat about music and his life as a Mental Health Professional.

I live a very unique life as an actor and a businessman. This week we continue the discussion of how I have navigated the acting world over the last 10 years. From living out of my car for 18-months to booking over 150 commercials (no extra work) and numerous National TV and Feature Film roles. I treat my career as a business and these same principles apply to most businesses. Many lessons were carried over from my 20+ years as a high-level college NCAA Division I Head Coach One of the three companies I own is a concert production and promotion company. We do live music and performing arts concerts at venues around the country. It is a very unique business and high risk. I will touch on some of the issues we face on the music scene as we emerge from the pandemic.

Nearly a decade ago, I moved to NYC to become an actor. On a whim. I lived out of my car for 18 months to make it happen (two cold winters). Before I arrived, I had no connections. No training. No idea how I was going to do it. What I did have was a refusal to fail, a willingness to learn and an eagerness to succeed. What I learned was patience and the value of investing in myself and in the value of learning and working on the craft. Despite making the decision right away to never do Background work or Extra work, over the last decade: I have done over 150 commercials, dozens of industrials, 8 feature films and a dozen co-star National TV show appearances. I earned my membership into the @sagaftra and I have representation from legit agencies around the country. I book a tremendous amount of my auditions and I’ve been able to parlay my finances into now owning three companies. Even if you’re not an actor, there’s a lot of great takeaways from my story. Much of the information is transferable to most businesses, careers and athletics.
