Please join us in welcoming Andrew Cotto, co-founder and editor-in-chief of Appetito
Magazine. Andrew is also an award-winning novelist of seven books, a regular
contributor to the New York Times, and he loves all things Italy, particularly food and
wine. His passion is to write and talk about it, and share his experiences so we can fall
in love with the Italian way of living as he has.
Andrew likes to say that “food is his muse.” He draws a comparison between mental
health and healthy eating, and talks about how Italians instinctively know how to do
that. While he was raised in the states, Andrew fell in love with his ancestral homeland
the first time he visited, and decided to plant his own roots there for a time and learn
all he could about the Italian lifestyle and good health. He’s been a regular on Good
Day New York, and has interviewed some of the top culinary experts in his Appetito
magazine, including Rachael Ray. And now he joins us on our #LittleItalyPodcast,
#LittleItalyOfLAPodcast, and #DeborahKobyltLIVE, to share all he’s learned with us.
And there’s a lot.
Please find our show on all video and audio podcast platforms, and invite your friends,
too. I’m your host, #DeborahZaraKobylt, and it’s a pleasure to have you join us today

Please welcome to our show a woman who appears to have more hours in her day
than the rest of us, Zibby Owens. Zibby is an award-winning author who will join us
to talk about her latest book, “Blank.” She also hosts an award-winning DAILY
podcast, Moms Don’t Have Time To Read Books. In addition, she owns and
operates Zibby’s Bookshop in Santa Monica, which is an incredibly inclusive space
for writers, authors, and anyone interested in books and learning how to get
started as an author.
Want more? The Zibby-verse has become a mini empire, led by Zibby Media, which
includes Zibby books publishing house, retreats for authors, book club, writing
group, not to mention her bookstore on Montana Ave. and her podcast. She lives
in NYC with her husband and FOUR kids under the age of 16, attended Yale and
Harvard, and spends a good chunk of time working in LA, too. And she smiles a
lot, too, perhaps because she’s truly doing what she loves. But she’s faced a lot of
rough patches, too, and we’ll talk about that, because Zibby is an inspiration to
many, a woman who has followed her passion for books and reading, and sharing
that with the rest of us.

make sure to share with your friends, too. I’m your host, #DeborahZaraKobylt, and
I thank you for joining us.

Please welcome to our show, Stan Zimmerman, author, “The Girls: From Golden to Gilmore. Stories about all the wonderful women I’ve worked with...and Roseanne.” Let’s just say Stan has worked with them all, and is a prime example of someone living his dream by living his truth.
Stan Zimmerman grew up a self-proclaimed gawky Jewish kid from the suburbs of Detroit, who dreamed of becoming a wildly successful actor, rich enough to buy his own mansion in the Hollywood Hills. The actor part didn’t quite work out, but he found success as a writer, producer, director, and playwright on some of the most noteworthy shows in the business.
The book chronicles his days from acting in plays in his basement as a kid, to attending NYU on scholarship, where he met his first serious boyfriend and somehow became Andy Warhol’s photo subject at Studio 54 one evening.
This is a story about friendship, finding one’s sexuality after battling years of homophobia, and honoring the many women in his life who have been supportive through it all. This is about success and thriving in Hollywood. Did he get his big
house in the Hills? We’ll ask him about that, too.
Please join our interview on all video and audio platforms or #DeborahKobyltLIVE. I’m your host, #DeborahZaraKobylt, and it’s a pleasure to have you join us. Make sure to invite your friends, too

David Richman was once an overweight, sedentary smoker who was jolted into making big changes in his life. Now an entrepreneur, athlete, public speaker, and author, David joins us to discuss his latest book, “Cycle of Lives,” which chronicles the stories of 15 people, five-thousand miles, and the journey through the emotional upheaval of cancer that David and his family endured after his sister was diagnosed with brain cancer, which ultimately claimed her life.
“Cycle of Lives” was created as the result of many years of dedication to raising awareness and funds for cancer research and care, inspired after his sister was initially diagnosed in 2007. Over the past 15 years, David has completed several
events including a 104-mile run along the Pacific Coast Highway, 87-miles from Cancun to Tulum, numerous bike rides and other events to raise money for the American Cancer Society and Moffitt Cancer Society. David is also donating profits
from his book sales to the cancer organizations he supports.
The book talks about the emotional ride of dealing with loved ones with cancer, and we will talk about the bravery his sister displayed throughout her battle with this disease.
Please join us on all video and audio platforms of #DeborahKobyltLIVE, and share with your friends, too. I’m your host, #DeborahZaraKobylt, and it’s an honor to have you here with us.

Often, some doctors and teachers were advocates of using medicine to quiet the child diagnosed with ADHD, but we now know that may not be the best option. Remember all the talk about how Ritalin could quiet a busy mind? Well, medicine is not longer the first choice to help people with ADHD succeed and lead happy, productive lives, and today we’re talking about it.
Please welcome Dr. Connie McReynolds, author, “Solving the ADHD Riddle, The Real Cause and Lasting Solutions to Your Child’s Struggle to Learn.” 
Dr. McReynolds and I will discuss auditory and visual procession issues that very often disguise themselves as “problems” in the classroom for teachers. Essentially, ADHD is about the brain not being able to fully hold or interpret information coming in, so we will talk about some new therapies that have proven successful, in addition to the “gifts” of ADHD, because from my own standpoint, I believe there are gifts associated with ADHD, and instead of having kids feel like failures for not being able to focus, perhaps we can learn to celebrate it with the knowledge that there are therapies to help the mind focus and thrive that are not about taking medicine.
Through years of clinical research, Dr. McReynolds will talk about the success she’s had using neurofeedback. In fact, she says the results have been astonishing. Please find our full conversation on all video and audio platforms of
#DeborahKobyltLIVE, and invite your friends, too.
This is an important topic, and I hope you’ll join me in spreading the word. I’m your host, #DeborahZaraKobylt. Thanks for joining us, and please invite your friends.

Have you thought of taking weight loss drugs? Seems as though everywhere you turn, people are jumping on the craze, but perhaps there’s another way to control our weight and health, and today we speak with our dear friend, chef and acclaimed author, Amy Riolo, along with her colleague, Dr. Simon Poole, MD, who collaborated on the “Diabetes for Dummies” series which also includes “Diabetes Meal Planning & Nutrition,” along with the “Diabetes Cookbook.” 
Amy has written 17 books that include healthy eating and how to incorporate the Mediterranean diet into our daily routines, and Dr. Poole talks about the many health benefits from introducing extra virgin olive oil into our diets. In fact, the two met at a convention speaking about olive oil and healthy living, and have made it their mission to talk and write about how we can all live healthier lives and even turn around type 2 diabetes if we incorporate certain foods into our diets and eliminate others that are essentially “poison” to our bodies.
Our show will be simulcast on #DeborahKobyltLIVE, #LittleItalyPodcast, and also #LittleItalyOfLAPodcast, and we all know that #Italians are experts on the benefits of the Mediterranean diet. This is also something Amy has studied much of her life, as her mother was diabetic and she sought ways to help her mom with through food. And she’s been talking and writing about it ever since.
Please find our show LIVE on all video and audio podcast platforms, and invite your friends and family to participate in this important conversation. Thank you for joining us. Deborah
