Phoenix Episode 3 is here! After my first episode, I met Kim. Her cousin reached out to me and told me that we had to connect. Kim, too, is a home fire survivor. In many ways, her story is very much like mine - even down to the cause of the fire and the lack of a working smoke detector.

Kim is in the process of rebuilding her life now as well as her home. But she is transformed her struggles into Ember Entertainment, a publishing company that empowers people.

Yesterday, I had a minor surgical procedure. I am okay, but wish to keep details to my family. I will be temporarily suspending the podcast for this week and next week. But I plan on coming back strong.

This is definitely one of the funniest episodes I've ever recorded. Meet John Paul Demirdjian. "The Captain" developed his own hot sauce and it is delish. But from the first sentences, this episode will have you laughing.

Congrats Brookfield Little League on your Regional Victory against Kentucky! Keep it going!

Congratulations to Brookfield Little League on becoming the 2023 Little League Illinois Champions. It was my pleasure to watch one of the most exciting games of baseball I have ever seen (sorry, I'm a Cubs fan). Congrats to my niece, Cam, and the team on an awesome victory.

Anyone want to guess who my next guest(s) are on the podcast?

This week's episode of EB is one of the best I have recorded. It was an incredibly impactful conversation with Rev. Martha Daniels of the Holy Covenant Metropolitan Community Church. Holy Covenant MCC is home to the beloved rainbow stairs that were defaced this March. It is a conversation about love, about hate, about redemption and about the LGBTQIA+ community.
