    Katlia Earth Day Interview

    What if the way we think about the Earth is part of the problem? In this episode, I'm joined by award-winning Dene activist and writer Katłı̨̀ą to discuss her powerful book Mother Earth Is Our Elder: A Northern Indigenous Perspective on the Climate Crisis. Drawing from Indigenous knowledge and lived experience, Katłı̨̀ą challenges modern perspectives on the environment — inviting us to see the Earth not as a resource to be used, but as an elder to be respected and learned from. This conversation explores climate change, cultural knowledge, responsibility, and what it means to live in relationship with the natural world.

    Carol Lin Interview

    What does it mean to deliver the news… when you're living through history in real time? In this episode, I'm joined by groundbreaking journalist and former ABC News and CNN anchor Carol Lin, whose voice helped guide millions through some of the most defining moments of the 21st century — including her historic live coverage during the September 11 attacks. In her memoir, When News Breaks: A Memoir of Love and War, she shares a deeply personal and powerful account of life in journalism — navigating breaking news, global conflict, and the emotional toll of reporting from the front lines, while also balancing love, family, and identity. This is a conversation about truth, resilience, responsibility, and what it means to bear witness to history.

    Dr. Joe Lex Interview

    History isn't just found in textbooks — sometimes, it's written in stone. In this episode, I'm joined by author and historian Joe Lex to discuss his book All Bones Considered: 52 Laurel Hill Women. Set in the historic Laurel Hill Cemetery, the book brings to life the stories of 52 remarkable women whose lives helped shape Philadelphia — and in many cases, the nation itself. From reformers and pioneers to artists and unsung heroes, this conversation uncovers the powerful, often overlooked contributions of women whose legacies deserve to be remembered.

    What if your memory, focus, and problem-solving skills weren't fixed traits… but abilities you could train like a muscle? In this episode, I'm joined by six-time U.S. Memory Champion and two-time Guinness World Record holder Nelson Dellis, author of Everyday Genius: Hacks to Boost Your Memory, Focus, Problem-Solving, and Much More. Nelson has dedicated his life to mastering memory — not just as a competitive skill, but as a tool for everyday life. In this conversation, we break down practical techniques to improve recall, sharpen focus, think more clearly, and unlock what he calls your "everyday genius." If you've ever forgotten names, struggled to concentrate, or wanted to think more effectively — this episode is packed with tools you can start using immediately.

    Peter Jones Interview

    In this episode, I'm joined by medieval historian Peter Jones, author of Self-Help from the Middle Ages: What the Seven Deadly Sins Can Teach Us About Living. We explore how medieval thinkers used the idea of the Seven Deadly Sins not just as religious warnings, but as a surprisingly practical guide to understanding human habits, desires, and flaws. From pride and envy to greed and sloth, these ancient ideas reveal timeless truths about psychology, morality, and the challenge of living a balanced life.
