    304: WGT Classics: Do Soulmates Exist, What is a Parallel Universe, and How to Help Earthbound Souls, with Psychic Malaurie Hotier

    In this WGT Classics episode, psychic Malaurie Hotier (@MalauriePsychic) tells us why there is no such thing as a "new soul;" how souls can exist on other planets; how to help an earthbound spirit; what happens when we pass; and more.

    She is not a crystal ball, but can enter into a conversation with her clients' spirit guides and ancestors and see what they have to say. The answer might not always be what her clients want to hear but it is always grounded in love and with the client's greater good in mind.

    300: How to Throw a Party Even a President Would Love, with White House Social Secretary and Author, Deesha Dyer

    300: How to Throw a Party Even a President Would Love, with White House Social Secretary and Author, Deesha Dyer

    She's thrown parties for the Pope, Beyonce, and world leaders from dozens of countries, so who better to ask for good party tips than the former White House social secretary?!

    This week I'm joined on the pod by Deesha Dyer, who worked with President Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama on throwing ragers for some of the most important people on earth.

    Not only do we talk about amazing party planning, but we also talk about how she went from a 31-year-old community college student to a staffer at the White House; the lessons she's learned about perseverance and staying true to yourself; the crazy party stories from 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue; and of course her tips to throw a party that even a President would love.

    Check out Deesha's new book, Undiplomatic: How My Attitude Created the Best Kind of Trouble, on Amazon here and on Bookshop here.

    299: WGT Classics: Who Really Killed JFK? Dr. Cyril Wecht Has a Few Theories

    299: WGT Classics: Who Really Killed JFK? Dr. Cyril Wecht Has a Few Theories

    Dr. Cyril Wecht, famed pathologist known for his work on cases including Casey Anthony; Scott Peterson; the Menendez brothers; Chandra Levy and most famously, his review of the Warren Commission report on the JFK assassination, has died at the age of 93.

    In honor of a career that spanned decades and impacted thousands of people, I'm re-releasing my interview with him that I did after the release of his latest book, The JFK Assassination Dissected.

    I had the opportunity to interview him multiple times over the course of my career, and was honored to reconnect with him after the release of this book.

    If you're into "alternate theories" on what may have really happened with the JFK assassination, this episode is for you.
