I’m starting a new podcast with a friend, and the first episode will be released this Tuesday, April 1st. You can find us wherever you fetch your podcasts. Laura is an attorney with a calm disposition and a great mind. She’s as frustrated, scared, and overwhelmed by what’s happening in this country as I am,…
Desperately Seeking Post Production
I love doing podcasts because they involve researching, writing, and recording. People can listen while they drive, do chores and exercise, or read the transcript if listening isn’t an option. But I hate the editing part of podcasting. As creative as post-production is, I’m limited by technology. Although online DIY podcasting software is very user-friendly,…
The Biden Backlash Doesn’t Surprise Me One Bit
I recorded this for my podcast (Episode 3: Democrats are the Worst at Marketing and Messaging) a few weeks ago. It turns out I’m a psychic! For those who would rather read my snarky remarks, here they are for your perusing pleasure. Are you better off than you were four years ago? Hmmm…. I’m not…
My Incredible Shrinking World
There are no straight lines when treating diseases, conditions or syndromes. Doctors rarely give an exact regimen to follow. Ask cancer patients how many micro and macro therapeutic decisions they are forced to make. Speak with a Type 1 Diabetic about the different insulins and glucose monitoring kits he must choose from. Ask someone suffering from…
F**K Anatoly’s Mom’s Disease
The Neubie is still impressing the heck out of me. I’ve made more lasting improvements and experienced more carryover with this machine than with all of my other treatments combined. After 4 months of home use, I’m happy to report the following improvements in my left leg: Am I walking better? Nope. Am I improving…
Good Advice
I LOVE reading advice columns and gravitate toward any sort of instructional teachings in general. That’s probably why The Dear Abby and Erma Bombeck infatuations of my youth, have led my down the digital rabbit hole of today’s podcasts, Am I The Asshole (AITA) Sub Reddits, Ted Talks, and Twitter feeds not to mention a…
30 Years
How ironic that today, on my thirtieth wedding anniversary, I just finished reading, Heather Havrilesky’s New York Times article, Marriage Requires Amnesia: Do I hate my husband? Oh for sure, yes, definitely. I’m happy to say that after three decades, I don’t hate my husband. I fell in love with a handsome, hard-working, good man…
100 Days of Self-Care Results Post
On December 7, 2020, I decided to commit to 100 days of self-care. I’m happy to report that I woke up today, Day 100, feeling lighter, more stable and moving better. I’m lighter because I started Weight Watchers in February and have lost 10 pounds. I like WW because there are no good or bad…
A Nice, Boring, Government Transition
Michael Lewis’ book, The Fifth Risk, gave me a peek behind the scenes in terms of the running of our government and what happens when a new administration takes over. About 4000 people need to be hired, 1200 of which need to be confirmed. Then of course there are the many background checks and security…
Will We Get Up?
In 1987 Oral Roberts, a televangelist from Oklahoma told his followers that if he didn’t receive 8 million dollars in donations within 3 months, God was going to “call him home.” Ultimately, 9 million was raised and Roberts lived another twenty-two years. I remember hoping back then Roberts would only receive $7, 999, 999 then…
