    Legends, Healing, and Smarter Benefits: Robert Wagner, Dr. James Fricton, and Anthony McMahon on the Neil Haley Show

    In this rich and wide-ranging episode of the Neil Haley Show, Hollywood icon Robert Wagner sits down to reflect on a lifetime of working alongside some of cinema's most extraordinary women. The author of I Loved Her in the Movies: Memories of Hollywood's Legendary Actresses, Wagner shares the inspiration behind his heartfelt tribute book, co-written with Scott Eiman, and explains how leading ladies from Audrey Hepburn to Bette Davis shaped not just his career, but his life. With warmth and humility, Wagner reminds us that behind every great leading man is an even greater leading lady. Next, the conversation takes a fascinating turn as professor, physician, and author Dr. James Fricton joins Neil to discuss his ambitious trilogy, centered on the book The Butterfly and the Beasts. Drawing on over 35 years of academic research and clinical work at the University of Minnesota, Dr. Fricton introduces listeners to his concept of the "seven realms" — mind, body, spirit, lifestyle, emotions, social life, and environment — and how cultivating positive energy across all seven can combat chronic pain, mental health struggles, and even global crises. His butterfly effect philosophy argues powerfully that individual energy ripples outward, shaping communities and the world at large. Dr. Fricton's characters come vividly to life as he walks Neil through the novel's intertwining storylines — a grieving physician, a homeless teenager fleeing a dangerous billionaire, and a researcher organizing a world congress to address humanity's greatest challenges. What makes the fiction so compelling is that it is grounded entirely in real science, with Dr. Fricton's online prevention program at preventionprogram.com and a Coursera course on chronic pain offering readers a direct path to applying the seven realms philosophy in their own lives. The episode closes with a deeply practical conversation featuring Anthony McMahon of Claim Links, who joins tax expert and host Ed Lyon to pull back the curtain on America's broken health insurance system. McMahon explains how the entire U.S. healthcare model is rooted in World War II-era tax law, and how most businesses are overpaying for employee health coverage by as much as 40% — largely because traditional brokers are financially incentivized to let costs rise. McMahon and his team at Claim Links flip that model entirely, aligning their compensation with the savings they generate for clients rather than the premiums they sell. Across all three conversations, a single unifying thread emerges: the power of creative, outside-the-box thinking to improve lives. Whether it's Robert Wagner honoring the women who elevated his craft, Dr. James Fricton translating decades of medical research into accessible novels and wellness tools, or Anthony McMahon reimagining how businesses can save money on healthcare, each guest brings a refreshing perspective that challenges conventional wisdom. This is the Neil Haley Show at its best — celebrating people who don't just ask how things are done, but dare to ask how they could be done better.

    Champions, Comedians, and Creators: Featuring Jenae Noonan, Mikael Avatar, Rabbi Bob Alper, and M.B. McClain

    In this wide-ranging episode of the Neil Haley Show and Storehouse Media Group Podcast, host Neil Haley sits down with four remarkable guests whose stories span combat sports, Paralympic athletics, interfaith comedy, and Hollywood production. From the boxing ring to the broadcast studio, each guest brings a unique perspective on resilience, reinvention, and purpose. Actress, boxer, and entrepreneur Jenae Noonan opens the episode with a candid reflection on a life lived at full speed. A former semi-pro soccer player who stumbled into professional boxing through a MySpace-era social media deal, Noonan went on to earn four gold medals in Pancration at the World Games and was recognized in 2024 as one of the world's most dangerous women. After retiring at the end of that year, she faced an even bigger fight — dual diagnoses of skin cancer and breast cancer within two weeks of each other. As of February 12th of this year, she rang the bell marking no sign of disease. Her story doesn't end there: she is now channeling her experience into Rise, a rebranded coffee community designed to help cancer patients raise funds and find support. Paralympic World Record holder Mikael Avatar shares one of the episode's most powerful origin stories. Born with a physical disability and clinically dead for 45 minutes, Avatar began training for the Olympics at age 10 — only to discover the Paralympics a decade later. He competed at the 1996 Atlanta Paralympics as the first athlete ever qualified for the long jump in his class, setting a world record along the way. Now a coach and artist, Avatar teaches his proprietary "Michaela-Tarn Method," guiding clients to clarify their goals and — critically — take action. His message is simple and universal: passion and focus can carry anyone beyond the limits others set for them. Stand-up comedian and Rabbi Bob Alper brings both laughter and depth to the conversation, joined by co-host Sherry Price-Clark. A performer who has shared stages with some of comedy's biggest names and been featured on Good Morning America, CNN, and the Today Show, Alper has built a ministry around the healing power of humor. His books, including Life Doesn't Get Any Better Than This and Thanks, I Needed That, have moved readers to both laughter and tears — including a Superior Court judge who reads a chapter when overwhelmed by tough cases. Alper also holds the distinction of winning Jimmy Fallon's "Joke with the Pope" contest in 2015, earning him the honorary title of Comedic Advisor to Pope Francis. Emmy-winning producer M.B. McClain rounds out the episode with a frank conversation about the state of Hollywood in the age of AI. A survivor of the 2011 Tohoku tsunami who went on to produce The Vow for HBO and win his Emmy for Netflix's Queer Eye Japan special, McClain pulls no punches about the industry's current upheaval. While AI tools have legitimate uses in speed and research, he argues they fundamentally cannot create anything original — only remix what already exists, often at the expense of uncredited human creators. His warning about the coming AI bubble, companies replacing skilled employees with hallucinating chatbots, and the gold-rush mentality currently gripping Silicon Valley is as timely as it is sobering.

    Grit & Glory: Brad Ledwith, Kristen Sweeney & Heather Freschette on Building Something That Lasts

    What does it take to turn a dream into something real — something that outlasts doubt, defies the odds, and leaves a mark on the world? In this extended episode, hosts Mitchell S. Karnes, Sherrie Price Clark, and Neil Haley sit down with three remarkable guests whose stories converge on a single truth: the most meaningful things are built slowly, on faith, grit, and the refusal to quit. Brad Ledwith reveals the decade-long journey behind The Mighty Oaks, a critically acclaimed documentary following a perpetually losing lacrosse team at Live Oak High School that refused to walk away — and ultimately transformed defeat into legacy. Now streaming on Amazon Prime Video and Apple TV, the film is proof that if you quit when you're losing, you'll never know what winning feels like. Kristen Sweeney gives an intimate look at what it means to step into the role of Abbey Rhodes in the upcoming film adaptation of the beloved mystery series. From consulting real female detectives in Nashville to training for American Ninja Warrior obstacles she once couldn't imagine conquering, Kristen brings the same fierce preparation to her craft as she does to her faith — and reminds us that new dreams are possible at any age. Heather Freschette, co-owner of Smiley's on the Roxx in Greenville, SC, shares how two bartenders saving tips in a box under the bed launched one of downtown's most beloved live music venues — 365 days a year, no investors, no loans, and no asking permission. Sixteen years later, the line still wraps around the block. Three guests. Three industries. One undeniable thread: the legacy you build is worth every year it takes to get there.

    Between the Trenches and the Fine Print: Keith Zlomsowitch & Randy Sadler on Survival, Risk, and What It Means to Be Truly Protected

    Some stories begin on a ski deck in Aspen. Others begin in a boardroom weighing risk against exposure. In this extended edition, two guests with vastly different backgrounds share one unexpected common thread — the profound cost of being unprepared for what life throws at you. Author Keith Zlomsowitch joins Neil Haley to recount one of the most quietly harrowing personal narratives connected to the O.J. Simpson murder case. As a man who dated Nicole Brown Simpson during her separation from O.J., Keith witnessed the escalating harassment, intimidation, and danger firsthand — and carried that weight in silence for decades. His book, Stalked: It Could Have Been Me, is finally his chance to speak. Keith walks listeners through the early days of his relationship with Nicole, the moment O.J.'s shadow entered the picture, and the chilling incidents that followed. He served as a pallbearer at Nicole's funeral, stood beside O.J. before his arrest, and turned down multimillion-dollar media offers to protect the integrity of the case. The trauma reshaped his life in ways that lasted long after the verdict. He wrote this book not for revenge, but for awareness — hoping that others might recognize the warning signs he once chose to look past. Then Ed Lyon welcomes Randy Sadler, Partner at CIC Services, for a conversation that trades courtroom drama for corporate discipline. Randy — a West Point graduate, former Army tank commander, and seasoned risk strategist — breaks down the world of captive insurance with the kind of clarity that's rare in financial circles. A captive isn't a tax loophole or a clever workaround. It's a licensed insurance company that a business owner controls — covering real risks, paying real claims, and built on real actuarial foundations. During COVID alone, CIC-managed captives paid out approximately $15 million in claims that traditional carriers refused to touch. Together, these two conversations form something larger than their individual parts. Whether the threat is a stalker at your door or an uninsured supply chain collapse, the message is the same: protection is only meaningful when it's real, when it's built with intention, and when it's in place before you need it. This is an episode about survival — personal, financial, and everything in between.

    AI, Tax Strategy & The Future of Work: Insights from Salima Lin, Alan Porter & Ed Lyon

    In this power-packed episode of the Neil Haley Show, three industry experts come together to explore the most pressing topics shaping business in 2026 and beyond. Salima Lin, Managing Partner at IBM Consulting, kicks things off with a deep dive into the IBM Institute for Business Values' Enterprise 2030 study, revealing what it truly takes for companies to become AI-first organizations. Alan Porter of Strategic Wealth Strategies follows with a sharp look at the hidden risks buried inside predictable tax legislation. Finally, tax attorney and Lion's Share Podcast host Ed Lyon rounds out the conversation with candid answers to listener questions about paying less in taxes — legally and strategically. Salima Lin pulls no punches when addressing the biggest challenge facing C-suite executives today: the glaring disconnect between AI expectations and measurable outcomes. While 80% of leaders expect AI to significantly contribute to revenues by 2030, only two in ten can clearly articulate where that revenue will come from. Lin urges leaders to build AI-first workflows from the ground up rather than patching the technology onto outdated processes, act with speed rather than waiting for perfect data, and above all, prioritize people. Her message is clear — humans who use AI will replace humans who don't, and companies must invest in continuous learning cultures to close the growing skills gap. Alan Porter brings a grounded, strategic perspective to tax planning under the so-called "Big Beautiful Bill," warning business owners not to mistake predictable tax rates for predictable risk. Porter explains that stability can actually breed complacency, causing owners to stop redesigning their financial structures. He highlights that the 20% QBI deduction remains powerful but still comes with income thresholds that can bite high earners without proper planning. His core message echoes throughout the segment: having a plan isn't enough — you must continuously improve that plan, because 93% of businesses are estimated to overpay their taxes by as much as 35%, a staggering figure that underscores just how much money is left on the table without proactive strategy. Ed Lyon delivers a masterclass in tax strategy for both business owners and retirees, dismantling the myth that conservative tax planning means waiting to see what changes. He pushes back on CPAs who refuse to use legal strategies because they fear future law changes, pointing to the S-corporation "loophole" that skeptics have predicted Congress would close for over two decades — and never has. Lyon also addresses the growing anxiety among accounting professionals about AI replacing their jobs, offering a nuanced take: AI will absolutely transform the profession, but the highest-value work — client relationships, storytelling, strategizing, and teaching — remains deeply human. The number crunching may go to machines, but the trusted advisor role is here to stay. Together, Salima Lin, Alan Porter, and Ed Lyon paint a vivid and urgent picture of a world in rapid transition. Whether the topic is AI adoption, tax legislation, or workforce evolution, the throughline is the same: those who adapt, upskill, and think strategically will thrive, while those who cling to the status quo risk being left behind. As Lin puts it, more than half of today's skills are expected to be obsolete by 2030. As Porter reminds us, a plan you never revisit is no plan at all. And as Lyon concludes, the best tax strategy isn't the one you used last year — it's the one built for where you're going next.

    Antonio Sabato Jr., Patrick Kennedy, Sheila E, and Tabatha Starcher on Faith, Racing, Mental Health, Recovery, Music, and Emmy Season

    This wide-ranging episode of the Neil Haley Show brings together four remarkable guests whose stories span the worlds of entertainment, politics, music, and television. Actor, model, and producer Antonio Sabato Jr. opens the conversation with a passionate discussion about his dual love of racing and filmmaking, sharing how he has dedicated himself to returning to professional motorsport as a tribute to his late father while simultaneously producing his proudest creative work to date, the upcoming film "Grace by Night." His journey from Rome to Hollywood to the racetrack is a testament to a life lived with relentless drive and deep personal conviction. Former U.S. Congressman Patrick Kennedy brings a deeply personal and policy-driven perspective to the show, speaking candidly about his own recovery from addiction and his lifelong fight to pass and enforce the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act. Kennedy discusses his new book, "Profiles in Mental Health Courage," which collects stories from everyday people navigating mental illness and addiction, arguing that transparency and storytelling are among the most powerful tools available to break down the stigma that continues to prevent millions of Americans from seeking the care they need and deserve. Music legend Sheila E joins the show with exciting news, including an upcoming performance in Pittsburgh and the release of her first-ever salsa album, "By Larr," a project years in the making that features an extraordinary roster of collaborators including Gloria Estefan, Ruben Blades, and her own father, Pete Escovedo. She reflects on the surprising challenges of recording in a genre rooted in authentic rhythmic tradition and in a language she does not speak fluently, while also sharing the beautiful origin story of her music career, a life-changing performance alongside her father at just fifteen years old that redirected her path from Olympic-level athletics to the stage. Tabatha Starcher, head of business development for the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences, pulls back the curtain on what goes into the Emmy Awards gift bags, revealing a thoughtful approach that prioritizes small businesses, minority-owned brands, conservation efforts, and community-minded products over flashy luxury items. From Biltmore wines to a children's book designed to spark meaningful conversations between parents and kids, and a gray wolf plush tied to National Wildlife Federation conservation funding, Tabatha illustrates how the Emmys use even their smallest traditions to reflect a broader commitment to storytelling, community, and purpose. Across all four conversations, a common thread emerges: each guest has found meaning not through fame or accolades alone, but through service, passion, and authenticity. Whether it is Antonio Sabato Jr. racing in memory of his father, Patrick Kennedy giving voice to those silenced by stigma, Sheila E channeling her heritage into bold new creative territory, or tabatha Starcher ensuring that even a gift bag tells a story worth telling, this episode is a vivid reminder that the most compelling lives are built on purpose far deeper than the spotlight.

    History, Healing, and Heroes: Teresa Knox, Amber Canavan, and Bazzelbaz on Music, Vegan Cheese, and Rescuing Children

    This wide-ranging episode of The Neil Haley Show brings together three fascinating guests — Teresa Knox, Amber Canavan, and Bazzelbaz — each passionate about their unique fields and the communities they serve. From the storied halls of a century-old recording studio to the growing vegan food movement to the urgent fight against child trafficking, this episode covers remarkable ground with remarkable people. Teresa Knox, founder and steward of The Church Studio in Tulsa, Oklahoma, opens the episode with a deep dive into the building's rich history. Originally a Methodist church built in 1915, the space was transformed in 1972 by legendary musician Leon Russell into one of America's most iconic recording studios. Knox shares how she purchased the dilapidated building nearly a decade ago as a passionate music memorabilia collector, and has since spent years restoring it and documenting its history through interviews with nearly 400 people — ultimately resulting in a book celebrating the studio's full provenance. Knox goes on to describe how The Church Studio has evolved into far more than a recording space. Today it operates as a music museum with a 6,000-piece archive, an audio engineering school, and a sought-after destination for artists from around the world. Recent recording artists including Taj Mahal, Kenny Loggins, Elle King, George Thorogood, and Tedeschi Trucks Band have all been drawn to what musicians simply call "the vibe" — that ineffable combination of analog warmth, sacred history, and the creative legacy left by legends like Tom Petty, JJ Cale, and Willie Nelson. Amber Canavan of PETA then joins the conversation to discuss the booming vegan cheese market, currently valued at $3.5 billion and projected to reach $9.8 billion by 2033. Canavan makes a compelling case for plant-based cheeses on multiple fronts — animal welfare, environmental impact, cholesterol-free health benefits, and even the addictive casomorphins found in dairy cheese. She highlights popular brands like Violife, Kite Hill, and Tree Line, and encourages consumers to explore the rapidly expanding options now available in mainstream grocery stores. Finally, Bazzelbaz, former CIA operative, Marine, actor on The Blacklist, and founder of the Association for the Recovery of Children, closes the episode with a powerful and sobering conversation about child sex trafficking in America. Drawing on over 30 years of frontline experience, Bazzelbaz recounts how a chance encounter with two young girls in 1993 Mogadishu, Somalia set him on a lifelong mission to rescue missing American children. With a 100% success rate over 34 years of operations and a robust volunteer-driven organization, El-Bas urges listeners to visit recoveryofchildren.com to learn more, donate, or enroll in their gold-standard six-day child trafficking awareness and rescue training course.

    Legends, Wealth & Legacy: Kenny Nolan, Alan Porter, and Bruce Buffer on Music, Money, and the Entrepreneurial Fight

    In this jam-packed episode of the Neil Haley Show, host Neil Haley sits down with three remarkable guests who have each carved out legendary careers through talent, tenacity, and relentless reinvention. From the halls of music history to the financial boardroom to the iconic octagon of the UFC, Kenny Nolan, Alan Porter, and Bruce Buffer deliver raw, inspiring conversations that span creativity, wealth, and the entrepreneurial spirit. First up is singer-songwriter Kenny Nolan, the genius behind some of pop music's most enduring hits, including Lady Marmalade and I Like Dreaming. Kenny opens up about his new inspirational album, Oh, Peaceful Mountain, released on Star Vista Music and produced by his son Brett Nolan. He reflects on decades of writing for legendary artists, the timeless craft of songwriting, and why after all these years, he still has so much music left to give the world. Next, financial strategist Alan Porter joins Neil for a fascinating deep dive into what he calls "the control illusion" — the surprising way wealth can begin to feel less liberating the more it grows. Porter breaks down why high-net-worth individuals often feel less free as their assets scale, how complexity creates dependency, and why surrounding yourself with a specialized team of tax attorneys, CPAs, and financial advisors is no longer optional in today's rapidly shifting economic landscape. Then, the legendary UFC announcer Bruce Buffer takes center stage with one of the most electrifying life stories you'll ever hear. Bruce shares how discovering his half-brother Michael Buffer led to a complete reinvention of his career, how he cold-called his way into the UFC, and why his philosophy of BSC — Balls, Skill, and Confidence — has guided every major move he's ever made. He also talks about his new bourbon brand, Puncher's Chance, and his enduring devotion to his 92-year-old mother. Together, Kenny Nolan, Alan Porter, and Bruce Buffer paint a vivid picture of what it means to pursue passion without apology, build wealth with intention, and show up fully — whether on stage, in the boardroom, or inside the octagon. This is an episode about legacy, resilience, and the relentless pursuit of purpose at every stage of life.
