    Why Do Writers Write? an interview with author Kevin Spark

    Author of the psychological thriller Id, Kevin Sparks joins us from Australia to discuss his writing process, good science fiction versus bad, the grandmother of SciFi and author of Frankenstein, Mary Shelley, losing time in a sensory deprivation chamber, and of course, Star Trek. This is a fun episode. ABOUT KEVIN SPARK: Novelist Kevin Spark has always been driven by telling stories, even as a kid. “I don’t know why or what it is that makes a writer want to write, whether it’s the spirit of self-indulgence or a need to be liked or heard? I’m certainly not arrogant enough to believe I have a message the world needs to hear. Nope, I just want to tell a good story that hopefully keeps you entertained,” says Sparks. Kevin Spark has been working as a graphic designer since leaving university, working on brands big and small, developing ad campaigns and working on various TV shows in the UK, mainly in the art department developing props. His passion for writing never ceased and he utilized the time during the Covid-19 outbreak to finally pen his first book, Id, a psychological thriller. He’s currently working on his second novel.

  4. Vindicating Trump with Dinesh D'Souza

    Vindicating Trump with Dinesh D'Souza

    Whether you like former President Donald Trump or despise him, filmmaker and political commentator Dinesh D'Souza explores the campaign against Trump that the mainstream news refuses to expose in his new film Vindicating Trump. Host of Awakened Nation Brad Szollose sits with Dinesh to discuss the three types of assassination: 1) Character Assassination 2) Legal Assassination a.k.a. "Lawfare" and 3) Physical Assassination. Trump has endured all three. In an effort to stop him, the left has censored free speech on Social Media, arrested and harassed his supporters targeting leading Republicans like Roger Stone, Steve Bannon and Rudy Giuliani. Corrupt judges have broken the law and in some cases changed the law, while elevating misdemeanors to felonies...just because Trump is a threat to their power. Like the lone gunman from old American Western films who rides into town to stop the local gangsters, Trump is recognized as the only person who can stop them...and they know it. This is a fascinating discussion with one of the most iconic documentary filmmakers of our generation. ABOUT DINESH D'SOUZA: Dinesh D’Souza has had a prominent career as a writer, scholar, and public intellectual, and has also become an award-winning filmmaker. Born in India, D’Souza came to the U.S. as an exchange student at the age of 18 and graduated Phi Beta Kappa from Dartmouth College. Called one of the “top young public-policy makers in the country,” D’Souza quickly became known as a major force in public policy through his books, speeches, and films. His films include Hillary’s America, Death of a Nation, Obama’s America, 2000 Mules, Police State, and his new film and book of the same title, Vindicating Trump. He has made several financially successful films, and written over a dozen books, several of them New York Times best-sellers. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/awakenednation/support

    The Coming American Revival: an interview with Chris Widener

    As The United States of America faces a new election cycle, is it possible we are seeing Americans turning back towards family, tradition and God? Chris Widener believes so. Brad Szollose sits down with Chris to discuss his latest book, The Coming American Revival. Chris starts the book with this... "America sits in a precarious place. The once mighty “greatest country in the world,” is broken and fractured. Division is rampant, driven by nefarious forces of evil, seeking to destroy a country that once stood as a “city on the hill,” brightly lighting up the world with the hope of Jesus, freedom, and justice." The Coming American Revival describes why our nation needs revival, what that revival would look like, and what it would take to see it happen. Not just about Christians, but everyone turning inwardly to their faith. Chris reveals the 7 steps it takes for a country to turn back to God: They love God and serve Him He blesses them with all blessings They get fat and happy and turn from God and instead worship their wealth and blessings God strips them of their blessings to draw them back to Himself The people fight and rebel and wallow in their sin Tired, they finally repent and realize they have turned their backs on God God, seeing their heartfelt repentance, brings them new life by sending revival After Trump? This is a positive discussion on what Faith can do for America. ABOUT CHRIS WIDENER: Chris Widener has been named one of the top 50 speakers in the world, one of the top 100 leadership speakers by Inc Magazine and one of the top 10 sales speakers by SUCCESS Magazine. He is a NYT and WSJ best-selling author, having authored 25 books some of which have been translated into 14 languages. Chris has given 2500 speeches all over the world and was personally mentored by both Zig Ziglar, and Jim Rohn. He is also the co-founder with Dinesh D’Sousa of the Red Referral Network giving conservatives the chance to not be cancelled.
