    His father escaped forced labor camps twice under Nazi Hungary and twice more under communism

    His father escaped forced labor camps twice under Nazi Hungary and twice more under communism. Once, he missed his train by going to the wrong station, and everyone who caught the right one was arrested. He went on to deliver 10,000 babies in Detroit with a big smile on his face. Devon Wieters sits down with Rob Wolf, MD, a retired neuroradiologist from Detroit and author of the award-winning book Not a Real Enemy: The True Story of a Hungarian Jewish Man's Fight for Freedom. Rob's parents wrote down his father's story in the 1970s. Years after they died, a historian friend handed Rob the disk it was saved on. He read it the way a radiologist reads a scan, with his dad's autobiography on one side and his own draft on the other, and turned it into a biography, an adventure, and a history of Hungary from the end of World War I to the 1956 Hungarian Revolution. Rob and Devon talk about the parents his father lost at Auschwitz, why only about 5% of the forced laborers in his area survived, and the team that helped bring the book to life. Rob also explains why he now spends nearly all of his time fighting antisemitism through education, starting at home. To finish, they pick a dream cast for the movie version. Real conversations. Fascinating people. Real hope.

    Queen D. Michele: Jumping Off the Wheel & Finding Your True Purpose

    Queen D. Michele: Jumping Off the Wheel & Finding Your True Purpose What happens when you realize life is about more than working, paying bills, and repeating the cycle? In this episode of the Wheel With It Podcast, I sit down with Queen D. Michele, a retired elementary and middle school teacher who made a life-changing decision to relocate to Mexico after realizing she would otherwise need to continue working to supplement her retirement income. She describes the move as “jumping off the wheel”—a decision that ultimately opened the door to writing books, building her brand, and discovering a new sense of purpose.  We also dive into her 52 Insights for Gen Alpha: A Conscious Curriculum, a mindfulness-focused curriculum designed for middle and high school students that was piloted in two Detroit middle schools during the 2024–25 school year. Queen D. Michele discusses what she believes Generation Alpha needs, what she learned from the pilot, and why she decided to incorporate AI and adaptive learning technology into the curriculum. QUEEN D Later, we explore what Queen D. Michele means by “New Earth,” her ideas about consciousness and the ego, and her book Traveling Home Together. QUEEN D MICHELE_ Interview via … Learn more about Queen D.

    Can We Talk Politics Without Fighting? Finding Common Ground in a Divided America w/ David Deighton

    Can We Talk Politics Without Fighting? Finding Common Ground in a Divided America w/ David Deighton In this episode of the Wheel With It Podcast, I sit down to talk about how we can communicate across our differences, listen to people we disagree with, and find common ground in an increasingly divided world.We discuss the importance of having real conversations without immediately writing someone off because they see an issue differently. At a time when political, cultural, and social disagreements can quickly become personal, this conversation explores what it looks like to listen more, disagree better, and treat one another with respect.Different views don’t have to prevent real conversations. In fact, those conversations may be exactly what we need to build a stronger tomorrow.

    The 12th Known Case in the World | Josh and Riley Turner’s Incredible Story | Wheel with It Podcast

    The 12th Known Case in the World | Josh and Riley Turner’s Incredible Story | Wheel with It Podcast Riley Turner spent 12 years without a diagnosis before her family finally received an extraordinary answer: she was the 12th known case in the world with her rare genetic condition. In this episode of the Wheel With It Podcast, Riley and her dad, Pastor Josh Turner, share her remarkable story—from doctors initially believing she had spinal muscular atrophy and telling her family she might only live a year, to eventually receiving her diagnosis and discovering her own voice. Josh shares the emotional story of the first time Riley spoke after her family had been told her vocal cords weren't strong enough for her to speak. Today, Riley is pursuing a degree in ministry with the goal of becoming a preacher. We also talk candidly about disability stereotypes, faith, Medicaid waivers, the challenges that forced Riley's family to move from Florida to Georgia, disability-related marriage and financial issues, and what needs to change within the Medicaid system.
