Welcome to the Eyewitness History podcast, where we view history through the eyes of the people that watched the events that shaped our world.  If you have a story from history that you would like to share, I would love to hear it!

    "Dr. Death's" Ex Talks How He Maimed Patients, Crippled His Best Friend, and When He Showed Up To Her House Covered In Blood

    We sit down with Wendy Young, the ex-girlfriend of Christopher Duntsch—better known as Dr. Death. Duntsch, a once-promising neurosurgeon, left a trail of maimed and murdered patients before his eventual conviction and life sentence. Wendy shares firsthand accounts of his disturbing behavior, from his professional downfall to his personal descent into chaos. She recounts the terrifying moments when Duntsch broke into her home covered in blood, the bizarre ransom note written in his own hand, and the emotional toll of raising his children while grappling with the reality of his crimes. This is an episode you don’t want to miss. Tune in for an inside look at the monster behind the mask and the people who survived his destruction. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

  4. Holocaust Survivor Describes Being Taken To And Life Living In Auschwitz

    Holocaust Survivor Describes Being Taken To And Life Living In Auschwitz

    Today is the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz. In recognition of this, please listen to this re-release of an interview I did with Holocaust survivor, Gene Klein. In the spring of 1944, a teenage Gene Klein and his family were taken from their village in Hungary and thrown into the infamous Nazi extermination camp known as Auschwitz. His father was taken straight to the gas chamber. Klein was forced into slave labor until liberated in the spring of 1945, and he spent two years as a refugee before his and other family members were allowed to immigrate to the United States. “Eventually, I decided that, like [Elie ] Wiesel, I needed to be public about being a survivor and that, in my own small way, I should contribute to the mission of educating the world about the Holocaust,” he wrote.“I will tell our story,” he continued, “and I will speak — especially in these times — about the tolerance and compassion necessary to prevent what happened to us from happening to others.”   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Broadway Star Talks Wicked, Nerves, and Her New Book!

    In this episode, I sit down with Jody Gelb, an accomplished actor and author whose forty-year career on stage and screen includes roles in Tony Award-winning Broadway productions like The Who’s Tommy, Titanic, Big River, and Wicked. You may also recognize her from guest appearances in hit television shows like Law & Order and Dr. Death. Beyond her impressive acting career, Jody Gelb is the author of the profoundly moving memoir She May Be Lying Down but She May Be Very Happy. In this poetic and emotionally rich book, Gelb reflects on the life of her daughter, exploring the complex experiences of love, loss, and resilience that come with raising a child with profound disabilities. Her writing has earned praise from luminaries like Elizabeth Gilbert, who called the book “a stunning work of art, of truth, and of love.” Check out her website: https://www.jodygelb.com/ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

  8. Brent Butt: Stand Up Comedy, Corner Gas, and the impact of Entertainment on Culture

    Brent Butt: Stand Up Comedy, Corner Gas, and the impact of Entertainment on Culture

    Today on Eyewitness History I have the privilege of sharing an interview with Comedian, Writer, Director, Producer and the creator of my favorite Sitcom, Brent Butt! In addition to creating "Corner Gas" which is the number one Canadian Sitcom in history, he continues to produce content that has uncharacteristic staying power and an international audience. This has uniquely positioned him to understand the role of entertainment in culture as well as the responsibility (and whether or not there really is one) for those who have large platforms. This was a great conversation that entertains and informs while motivating you to stream another episode of "Corner Gas."
