I was inspired by Monica Kelsey and her safe baby boxes to where I approached our local fire station. They were not receptive to the idea, as the station is not manned Full-time. So I approached our nurse manager in the OB unit at the hospital that I work at , I told her about the program and sent her information. She was more than receptive. She is currently working on getting a baby box for the OB unit of our hospital. It’s a process, but at least our small community will hopefully have a baby box in the near future.

I’ve been a listener since day one. I find Coach Bill’s perspective, and his own journey learning about the people in his community, inspiring, relatable, and heartwarming. My views on so many things have changed because of this podcast and the people he highlights. I recommend this podcast every chance I get. Coach Bill’s heart and passion for humanity are evident; he makes me want to be better.

So far, so good…🤔🇺🇸 So what?…🏴‍☠️🤨😖 Just kidding.…😁😎 So bring on your best! 🦅 🇺🇸🏴‍☠️🗽🏴‍☠️🇺🇸 A small edit (not really) from my post of a year ago, an addition for your consideration: …a tweak-twist-suggestion to name of your new line of short form, normal-folks of the dead persuasion 🧐🤔 ‘Army of Normal Folks “Past”…’😎🤨 i.e. - (Passed), passed away, belonging to the ages, history speaking across time to the living,.…but no longer among the living, i.e. –dead– …has a nicer ring to it don’t ya think?? covers a bit more time & space & meaning🙂 Lovin’ the show, you’re doing great😝 Didja catch the bell pun I threw in there?? Ring-a-ding-ding🤪 Mike .…working way out in the woods on the Oregon coast ranges

The portion of the show where y’all talked about “hate speech,” and use of the “r” word as being offensive offended me. The only difference is I choose not to be offended. Y’all are addressing a first world problem that is a “problem” in privileged sectors of society. Yall need to grow some callouses. As it stands, I’m trying to buy food to get my family through this week. The majority of actual “normal” folk are focusing on surviving, not non-PC words. Go to the ‘hood and you are guaranteed to hear “offensive” words and phrases—just like Cioffi has probably heard in some of the prisons in which he worked. This is just as stupid as someone praying that their rescuers “look like them.” That’s about as ignorant a statement anyone can make. As a black man and retired military officer, I’ve worked for, with, and buried too many good men and women of all stripes to think like a pinhead (dang it! Almost made it without slipping). None of the five protections afforded in the first amendment bans the right to not like someone. Hating Biden or Trump is no better than hating someone based on their skin color. Hate is hate but everyone is still entitled to their opinion. I swore an oath to support and defend constitutional rights—all of them. Simply put, Voltaire, Oscar, Wilde, or Evelyn Beatrice Hall —whoever said it first—was right when they said, “I may not agree with what you say, but I’ll defend to the death your right to say it.”

We have been trying to find this amazing film in a theater near us, but not any success. Where can we go to find those theaters in South Eastern Idaho please?

Bill brings a sizable dose of reality to a society that wants to believe it takes governmental intervention to resolve issues people face daily. The truth is that normal folks can and do impact the world in extraordinary ways. These stories relate to our own lives and help us see that we are not alone and we CAN impact our world for good.

I love the show. I love the idea of the show. However, I’m on episode 3 and the host is constantly talking over his guests and telling his own stories. Stop it!

We were recently honored to interview Bill on our Northern AZ radio show, he’s the real deal. Please become a sustaining member of the Army of Normal Folks, and support Bill, his team and his wonderful guests in making America a more loving, compassionate, successful place for all of us.

Each week I look forward to Tuesday ! Listening and sharing this podcast is such a wonderful way to motivate both myself and my family and friends to go make a difference as just a normal person making a difference in the lives atound is! I love that you ask the hard questions and talk about the hard topics with care and compassion! Thank you for all you do to make our world a better more unified place 🙏🏼🎁
