“I used to be the largest dairy consumer on the planet. I used to eat so much dairy and meat. The more that I looked into the dairy industry, the more that I saw that it was the singular, most inhumane industry on the planet, that we've all been lied to, including myself, for years. I always believed that the picture on the milk carton, the cow standing next to her calf in the green field with the red barn in the back was true. It’s certainly the complete opposite.” – Richard (Kudo) Couto Richard (Kudo) Couto is the founder of Animal Recovery Mission (ARM), an organization solely dedicated to investigating extreme animal cruelty cases. ARM has led high-risk undercover operations that have resulted in the shutdown of illegal slaughterhouses, animal fighting rings, and horse meat trafficking networks. Recently, they released a damning investigation into two industrial dairy farms outside of Phoenix, Arizona supplying milk to Coca-Cola’s Fairlife brand. What they uncovered was systemic animal abuse, environmental violations, and a devastating betrayal of consumer trust. While Fairlife markets its products as being sourced "humanely," ARM’s footage tells a very different story—one of suffering, abuse, and corporate complicity. Despite the evidence, this story has been largely ignored by mainstream media—likely due to Coca-Cola’s massive influence and advertising dollars.…

1 E538 - Tony Stewart - Carrying the Tiger - Living With Cancer, Dying With Grace and Finding Joy While Grieving 50:54
Episode 538 - Tony Stewart - Carrying the Tiger - Living With Cancer, Dying With Grace and Finding Joy While Grieving About the author Tony Stewart has made award-winning films for colleges and universities, written software that received rave reviews in The New York Times and the New York Daily News, designed a grants-management application that was used by three of the five largest charities in the world, and led the development of an international standard for the messages involved in buying and selling advertisements, for which he spoke at conferences across Europe and North America. Tony and his late wife Lynn Kotula, a painter, traveled extensively in India and Southeast Asia, staying in small hotels off the beaten track and eating delicious food with their fingers when cutlery wasn’t available. Carrying the Tiger is his first published book. An inspiring story of love, loss and recovery “[A] beautifully devastating memoir… a remarkable odyssey of learning to ‘live fully in the shadow of death.’” — Publishers Weekly BookLife (Editor’s Pick) In the spirit of Joan Didion’s The Year of Magical Thinking and Paul Kalanithi’s When Breath Becomes Air comes Carrying the Tiger , a life affirming memoir about the full circle of life and death. When Tony Stewart’s wife, Lynn, receives a sudden and devastating diagnosis, they scramble to find effective treatment, navigate life threatening setbacks, learn to live fully in the shadow of death, and share the intimate grace of her departure from this world. Then Tony slowly climbs out of shattering grief and, surprisingly, eases toward new love. There is uncertainty, fear, and sorrow, but also tenderness and joy, along with a renewed perspective on what it means to live and love with one’s whole heart. “Captures emotions and experiences that will be familiar to anyone who’s stood by a loved one facing a cancer diagnosis... this is a work that will strengthen all who read it.” — Khalid Dar, MD, Oncologist, Mount Sinai Morningside “A beautiful and very human love story which breathes an extraordinary generosity of spirit.” — David Newman, author of Talking with Doctors https://www.tonystewartauthor.com/ Support the show ___ https://livingthenextchapter.com/ podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/ Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks! https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca…

1 E535 - Lynn Greenberg and Jonathan Greenberg - Robby the Dyslexic Taxi and the Airport Adventure, what makes you different is what makes you great 40:33
Episode 535 - Lynn Greenberg and Jonathan Greenberg - Robby the Dyslexic Taxi and the Airport Adventure, what makes you different is what makes you great Robby the taxi has dyslexia, but he doesn’t let that stand in the way of doing a great job driving riders all around the city. Even though he can’t read the street signs, he has a wonderful memory and knows the streets by heart. One day, a regular customer asks him to go somewhere he’s never been… the airport! But Robby has solved problems like this before, and he finds his way to the airport using his unique outlook and creative skills. This delightful tale was co-written by Lynn Greenberg and her son Jonathan, who also illustrated the book. Jonathan was born with dyslexia, and with the help of Lynn, learned to overcome his learning differences through creativity and art. By sharing Robby the Dyslexic Taxi with your little one, you’ll start them on their journey to learning how to solve their problems as well, whether they have dyslexia, ADHD, autism, or just need a boost in the direction of finding creative solutions for interesting, unexpected, and difficult problems. Jonathan Greenberg Author and Illustrator Jonathan Greenberg was diagnosed with dyslexia as a young child. While he always knew that he learned differently than others, he did not let it personify who he was. Like most kids, Jonathan had a bookshelf full of books, however since he couldn’t read them at first, he became captivated with the artwork and illustrations of every one of them. Jonathan worked hard and overcame his disability, however, his love for art developed into his own passion. Jonathan is currently a graduate student at The School of the Art Institute of Chicago so teaming up with his mother, an advocate for neurodiverse children, to co-author and illustrate a children’s book was a natural evolution. Jonathan looks forward to continuing to create and illustrate stories with neurodiverse characters while also expanding his own artistic endeavors through other mediums. To learn more about Jonathan and his work, visit Creationaire Arts. Lynn Greenberg Author Lynn Greenberg has focused her life on being a champion for children. As a trained Attorney, Lynn spent her time in the legal world practicing family law, providing pro bono work for kids, and advocating on their behalf. When her youngest son Jonathan was diagnosed with Dyslexia, becoming his advocate, as well as others, came easy. Understanding how to gather facts and create strategic plans, Lynn developed a road map to success for her son and has since become an active supporter of all neurodivergent children. Writing a children’s book with Jonathan was simply the natural progression for Lynn. Robby the Dyslexic Taxi and the Airport Adventure was born out of Lynn’s desire for neurodivergent children to be able to see themselves in characters in a storyline. Lynn plans to continue creating stories relatable for all children. https://creativecabcompany.com/ Support the show ___ https://livingthenextchapter.com/ podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/ Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks! https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca…
1 E534 - Peter Gribble - Welcome to the City of the Magicians - a looming crisis is about to reinvigorate Magic in all its wonders and dangers 44:35
Episode 534 - Peter Gribble - Welcome to the City of the Magicians - a looming crisis is about to reinvigorate Magic in all its wonders and dangers Canadian Author, Peter Gribble has written for NUVO and other magazines in British Columbia. For over ten years he wrote a monthly gardening column for a local Vancouver paper. The City of the Magicians is his first published series. I wondered how a pacifist, non-violent city-state could effectively prepare for a barbarian invasion while keeping their integrity intact. The City Council comes up with a decent solution plus a way of delivering it but as usual with good ideas they can hit unexpected snags. Then there were the images hanging about in my head patiently waiting for me to write towards them. When they are ready (or I am) they pop onto the page as if readymade. It’s not writing; more like taking dictation. One of these images haunted me for years until it finally found its place in the third book of the series: In the midst of a fire, an unknown book’s flyleaf is blown smoking into your grasp. On it is a dedication inscribed to someone you know. https://petergribble.com/ https://publishing.tellwell.ca/ Support the show ___ https://livingthenextchapter.com/ podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/ Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks! https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca…

Episode 532 - Courtney Hennis - Mailbox Friends, The Loss of A Spouse, Grief and the Power of a Letter Hi everyone, I’m a new author, and I’m excited to share my latest book, Breaking: Understanding the Loss of a Partner. This book is deeply personal—it reflects my journey as a widow and was written in the wake of my spouse’s passing. My hope is that it brings comfort and understanding to others navigating this profound loss. I released my first book, The Healing Letter , in 2023, but it didn’t gain much traction. Still, I believe in the power of writing to heal, and I’m hopeful that Breaking will reach those who need it most. If you or someone you know is struggling with loss, I’d love for you to check out my books: Breaking: Understanding the Loss of a Partner – https://www.amazon.com/Breaking-Understanding-Partner-Courtney-Hennis/dp/B0DWKN7GF8 The Healing Letter: How Writing Can Help You Process and Overcome Difficult Experiences – https://www.amazon.com/Healing-Letter-Overcome-Difficult-Experiences/dp/B0CM64T59C Thank you for your support! https://www.facebook.com/groups/1066430593453475/user/100079661670797/ https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100079661670797 Support the show ___ https://livingthenextchapter.com/ podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/ Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks! https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca…
Episode 530 - Wendy A Horwitz - Author of Milkweed and Honey Cake - A Memoir in Ritual Moments Raised in small-town Connecticut, educated in public schools, then Harvard and Temple Universities, I’ve had a mixed metaphor of a career. I’ve been a (happy) fish out of water: a doctoral student in psychology with an undergraduate history degree; a psychologist in pediatric medicine; a clinician among academic scholars; a social scientist working with English professors, engineers, and philosophers; a writer teaching medical students. But I promised a mixed metaphor. My life is also an improvised, patchwork quilt of pieces gathered from sojourns in Costa Rica, Israel, Gambia, Provence, Ecuador, and the best, continuous journey of all--being a mom. Now, I teach writing workshops on Cape Cod and in Philadelphia. I’m a haphazard birder and a passionate observer of butterflies, unspoiled habitats, and turtles. Hiking, family, books, close friends, religious observance and secular ritual, music and dance: all lend my quilt color and sublime, if elusive patterns. And I’m still working on it, with clumsy stitches that depict me starting to learn the piano, and along the rough edge, a new design for my next book. In Milkweed and Honey Cake: A Memoir in Ritual Moments , Wendy A. Horwitz shares stories about celebration, loss, change, and the best way to open a pomegranate. Holidays delight – and disappoint. A couple marrying in the pandemic finds a surprise after a rainstorm, and a topsy-turvy search for a gravestone honors her ancestors. When a graduation is cancelled, Horwitz serves pomp and circumstance on the front porch, and through the shifting seasons of a life, amid the scramble of pet guinea pigs and birthday parties, her children add wonder and comedy to tradition. With observations from nature, religion, and literature, Horwitz explores how ritual can exalt ordinary moments and frame the extraordinary. A blue heron, an old cupboard's scent, and the lingering feel of an engagement ring long gone prompt reflections laced with yearning and humor. Guiding us along a wooded path, to the kitchen table, in a messy garden, and under a tent reverberating with song, she traces the boundaries of ritual, considering what we do when ritual falls short, and how we might adapt each other's practices. And when the wider world seems broken, new rituals provide hope. Lyrical and funny, thought-provoking and deeply moving, Milkweed and Honey Cake is at once a meditation on our desire for meaning and the story of a woman's lifelong efforts to create it https://www.wendyhorwitzauthor.com/ Support the show ___ https://livingthenextchapter.com/ podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/ Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks! https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca…
Episode 529 - Karen Essex - Award-winning journalist and a screenwriter and author of Kleopatra About the Author Karen Essex is the author of Kleopatra , Pharaoh , Stealing Athena, Dracula in Love, and the international bestseller Leonardo’s Swans, which won Italy’s prestigious 2007 Premio Roma for foreign fiction . An award-winning journalist and a screenwriter, she lives in Los Angeles, California. Here’s a bit more about my novels: KLEOPATRA: The Early Years , tells the little-known story of the princess’s harrowing rise to the throne, surviving her murderous family members, exile, war, riots in the streets of Alexandria. If you think your family has problems…at least they’re probably not trying to kill you! “Keenly researched and brimming with exotic, erotic detail, Essex’s style is as seductive as her subject.” — Dallas Morning News PHARAOH: Book II of Kleopatra begins when twenty year-old Kleopatra meets Julius Caesar and takes the reader on her fascinating journey partnering with him and another powerful Roman, Mark Antony. But rather than concentrate on mere romance, the novel also explores Kleopatra’s extraordinary political acumen, diplomacy skills, and foresight. “This stunning sequel to Kleopatra completes the story. Readers will enjoy the vivid portrayal of Kleopatra and the period in which she lived.” — Library Journal LEONARDO’S SWANS puts Leonardo da Vinci’s rivalrous female muses at its core, aristocratic women who shaped the art and politics of the Italian Renaissance. The novel was a runaway bestseller in Italy and won the prestigious Premio Roma for foreign fiction. “Essex combines art, political intrigue, family feuds and sex to create a page-turner.” — USA Today STEALING ATHENA is a sweeping historical saga from the perspectives of two fascinating women, Aspasia, philosopher and mistress to Pericles, and Countess Mary Elgin, who twenty-three hundred years later saw the demise of Pericles’s great Athenian monuments. “Stealing Athena firmly entrenches Karen Essex as one of the top historical novel writers of our time.” — Bookreporter.com DRACULA IN LOVE , born from my love of fellow New Orleanian Anne Rice’s work and a childhood fascination with reruns of DARK SHADOWS, retells Bram Stoker’s classic tale from the perspective of the vampire’s obsession, Mina Harker, who surprises readers with her own supernatural lineage. “Brilliant. Sweeping. Breath-taking. Essex’s journey into the social expectations of Victorian women through the telling of the Dracula story is genius.” — Book Banter “An intensely erotic story of romance and obsession. . . . Lusciously sexy and outrageously chilling by turns.” – Newark Star-Ledger https://karenessex.com/ Support the show ___ https://livingthenextchapter.com/ podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/ Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks! https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca…
1 E528 - Samantha Rose - Emmy award-winning television writer and bestselling author, specializing in literary support and book collaboration with celebrities 39:14
Episode 528 - Samantha Rose - Emmy award-winning television writer and bestselling author, specializing in literary support and book collaboration with celebrities Samantha Rose is an Emmy award-winning television writer and a New York Times and USA Today bestselling author who specializes in literary support and book collaboration with celebrities, experts and industry leaders. Her narrative, non-fiction projects fall under the categories of health & wellness, spirituality, personal growth, how-to, business, parenting and memoir, including titles that have been translated into more than 20 foreign languages, featured in the Wall Street Journal, Harper's Bazaar, Time and selected as Reese's Book Club and Target Bookmarked picks. Samantha is the principal of literary development and the head of client relations for Yellow Sky Media, her company in Petaluma, California. On an ordinary Wednesday I received the call every writer wants to get. It was from a New York literary agent who’d been following my blog. She said, “I think you have a book here. I wonder though--could you go a little bit deeper? Keep the humor, but also tell your story with more vulnerability?” More vulnerability? I cringed. I’d already made my personal life very public. Putting myself even further out there felt scary. It also felt daring. I csn say now that writing The Package Deal: My (not-so) Glamorous Transition from Single Gal to Instant Mom was one of the most challenging and liberating experiences of my life. I told my story as honestly and authentically as I could. I extended myself beyond what was comfortable in an effort to help other women like me feel a little more normal and less alone Redbook called it a “refreshingly honest memoir.” Library Journal praised it as “clear-eyed,” “candid and optimistic.” Fellow stepmothers cheered me as "heartfelt" and "hilarious." I learned that readers respond well to honest storytelling and to storytellers who dare to be seen and heard. By telling my truth, I was giving others permission to tell theirs. Since The Package Deal published in 2009 (Penguin Random House) and premiered on the San Francisco Chronicle bestseller list and as a Target club pick, I’ve been giving voice to and empowering others who have a story to tell. I’ve collaborated with celebrities, experts, entrepreneurs and all sorts of amazing individuals who need that first shot of courage and clear guidance forward, to help striking the right tone, organizing ideas into chapters, and building your book― word to word― from beginning to end. Translating your voice and singular story onto the page is what I'm trained to do, and I'm uplifted, instructed, and both challenged and inspired by your one and only perspective. So tell me: what's your story? What have you always wanted to share with the world? Together we can manifest the book inside you waiting to be written. https://www.yellowskymedia.com/ Support the show ___ https://livingthenextchapter.com/ podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/ Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks! https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca…
1 E527 - Bruce Bishop - Future Historical Fiction, A Trilogy and a new book, Grow up, Rory Rafferty 52:26
Episode 527 - Bruce Bishop - Future Historical Fiction, A Trilogy and a new book, Grow up, Rory Rafferty Why I write fiction Like many authors, I began writing stories from a young age. I was lucky to pursue a career in travel writing from the mid-1990s to the mid-2010s, both online and in print. Those assignments literally and figuratively opened the world to me, but it wasn't until the Covid19 pandemic that I began to take fiction writing seriously. Oddly enough, having to stay at home for a prolonged period sparked some creative juices to flow. I devoured online instruction about the business of self-publishing. Now that I have four novels published I can't see a return to non-fiction writing. (But never say never , eh?) My "author brand" If you had asked me what an author brand is before I self-published Unconventional Daughters in 2020, I probably would not have known the answer. While 'Daughters' and the interlinked two follow-up novels, Uncommon Sons and Undeniable Relations , are technically historical fiction, I'd rather not be pigeon-holed as only that kind of author. My newest work, Grow up, Rory Rafferty is set in Toronto in 1979, rendering it contemporary adult fiction. It won't be considered 'historical fiction' until 2029... but the story most definitely involves a vintage, pre-Internet era. ...and what that brand truly is I want to give a voice to characters who are often left out in mainstream storytelling. Some may be loosely based on people I've met or known in my sixty-plus years on earth; others are entirely figments of my imagination. I'm comfortable in researching the backgrounds of characters who might not be White, male, or gay - characters unlike me who I feel should be given a role in historic or contemporary fiction. I always use sensitivity readers from that minority group to ensure I'm telling the truth. The service industry jobs I had as a young man - from being a short-order cook to waiting on tables - were of great value. They were opportunities to be a silent witness and observer. For example, I've seen or experienced bullies, rich and poor, from all corners of the earth. I don't want those characters to have the last word. The writer doesn't forget these experiences and people; they inhabit his or her fiction. https://brucebishopauthor.com/ Support the show ___ https://livingthenextchapter.com/ podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/ Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks! https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca…

Episode 526 - Brenda May Whiteman - UNMET NEEDS NEVER GO AWAY - A New Paradigm for Raising Our Children in the 21st Century We are all individuals with personal life experiences that shape and mold us in both constructive and challenging ways. It is necessary to integrate and metabolize the emotional, psychological, spiritual and physical components of our total life experience in order to expand and deepen our consciousness. In this way, we move towards a mature, comprehensive and stable personality, capable of experiencing the full human emotional continuum of joy, elation, love and relationship as well as the challenges of pain and sadness inherent in every person's life. As an experienced Psychotherapist, I approach all life issues from a perspective that seeks to illuminate these fundamental aspects of our human structure that comprise the spirit of every individual. Optimism, faith in oneself and universal creativity, positive psychology and transformative emotional experience are vital to a rewarding and uplifting life journey. This is the one true path to healing. https://www.brendawhitemanpsychotherapy.ca/ Support the show ___ https://livingthenextchapter.com/ podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/ Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks! https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca…

She and her team quickly find themselves in pursuit of a domestic terrorist - an M.I.T. educated, military trained missile genius with Ted Bundy-like psychopathy - to stop him before he carries out his next devastating attack. This one is even more lethal than the overhwelming inferno he just unleashed on Boston. As Eve closes in, she discovers these attacks are orchestrated by a US senator and a powerful cabal of highly placed leaders and lawmakers with a hidden agenda. https://a.co/d/2yD92bj Support the show ___ https://livingthenextchapter.com/ podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/ Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks! https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca…
