Hug It Out America Live

Co-host of Un-safe space and  creator of "Civilty Dinners".  Can't wait to find out more about this bad ass woman.

Lots of changes in my life, but I missed wrapping my arms around America so I am back to talk about all the new things in my life and a new vision for my show. No longer Hug It Out America Radio. Now Huge It Out America Live. On the show I will get into more what that means.  

My oldest came up with this great idea to spread love and unity with ordinary rocks and a relaxing walk around the neighborhood. Her sister joined in on the love mission too. They join me to talk about it and we discuss other ways folks are creating unity beyond zoom calls, Facebook Live and anything involving a screen. 

Renee comes on to talk about her book  “Allies & Demons: Working With Spirit For Power and Healing,” We also chat about her work in spiritual psychology and some of her cool art.

Ken Harris a chiropractor, educator,lector, and author talks about his life, the concept behind synchronicity and some of the stories from his best selling book "Synchronicity.".

Through Hug It Out America (50hugs.org ) I have wrapped my mind and arms around thousands of people. Curt's story heartbreaking but seismically inspiring, I will never forget. Hear it this Monday straight from him. If you listen to only one show this should be it.

Mark is a long time musician. Growing up in Illinois and now residing in Houston Texas, music has always been his companion. For a while he had his own night club where he played and let us others take the stage to, then he decided to sell it and go back to touring around sharing his music and songs with the nation. Bam the Coronavirus hit. Tour is postponed for who knows how long. My good fortune. Now he has a little time to talk to me about his music and the life it has given him. Join us this Friday.

Friends. Family. Doctors... You can tell them about being a parent with an ADHD child until they are blue in the face, they will never truly understand. They need to live it day to day to truly get it. Trust me I get it. My youngest daughter has ADHD and I live it every day. This crisis makes it even harder too. Let's talk about it today at noon EST parent to parent ABOUT HUG IT OUT AMERICA Not 12 hours after Trump was elected president I lost my cool with a man with a red hat. I nearly went to prison for mere seconds of uncontrolled emotion. That was just the beginning of the hell hole I walked into. When I climbed out, I was a very different person. Ever since I have been on a mission to find humanity in everybody most importantly the people I have big disagreement with. Last year I started to give hugs in every state. ( www.50hugs.org. ) Funny thing, I am not really a hug guy. Just ask my wife. I just like talking to people and the hugs sometimes help get the conversation going and certainly make some people feel better. Others not so much. Anyway, I have visited 23 states on my road trip already. Often my kids are in tow but sometimes it's just me and my SUV. The plan was to visit the other 27 this year then this damn Coronavirus hit. Now just like you, I am stuck at home, Can't go anywhere strangers are. No live sports are on tv now. Just the damn news. .Not crap to do with my free time but watch Netflix or my kids try to kill each other. So I started this show. I know jack about the radio business, but I am sick of all this screen to screen connection, social media, Emojis, and all that virtual crap. Radio is not fa  

Chris Agyei is one of those artists who does more than just create beautiful paintings. He has a soul just as spectacular. Chris always had a talent for art but when he got older he used that skill not only to support himself but lift others up too. His community like many has been devastated by drugs and gang violence. Chris opened an art gallery to give back to where he grew up and still lives today. Hear his story.    ABOUT HUG IT OUT AMERICA Not 12 hours after Trump was elected president I lost my cool with a man with a red hat. I nearly went to prison for mere seconds of uncontrolled emotion.

Marla Estes is a woman I met through Hug It Out America on social media. Like me, she is committed to getting past politics and seeing we have more in common than not no matter who we are. While I travel around hugging one person at a time with my words and arms.  She moves around the northwest talking to people in large groups and showing them face to face the secret to bringing our nation back together. She is literally shrinking the divide one seminar at a time. Hear about her love potion Monday at noon.

We will get into the good, bad, and ugly of prosecuting the people you. normally only hear about in movies.    ABOUT HUG IT OUT AMERICA Not 12 hours after Trump was elected president I  lost my cool with a man with a red hat.

SOUTH VS NORTH I was born & bred in South Carolina & my good friend Pamela Goodwin has spent most of her years in New England. Today we discuss the differences living in the two areas.

A couple of months back I  met this cool guy hugging on the streets of my town. His name is Jason Hosey. We have gotten to become friends through sharing our hardships and just love of people and life. Turns out he has had a lot of rough experience from being homeless and now fighting in the courts for the rights to even spend time with his baby boy. Like me he is Christian too. Join us as we discuss religion and other things. Who knows where this discussion will go.    

I have been on a mission to give hugs in every state (50 Hugs). Nope, I am not really a hug guy. Just ask my wife. I just like talking to people and the hugs sometimes help get the conversation going and certainly make some people feel better. Others not so much. Anyway, I have visited 23 states on my road trip already then this damn Coronavirus hit. So I can't really hug anybody in America six feet apart, and I'm not giving air hugs any time soon. So I am stuck at home. No live sports to save me. Just the damn news. Nothing to do with my free time but watch Netflix or gander all day at my kids try to kill each other. So I started this radio show until I can get talking to people face to face again. So what? I know jack about the radio business. This beats the hell of emojis, likes, and all that social media stuff. Radio is not in person but at least it is a real way to connect with somebody without typing and still be in my boxers while doing it. So here I am. Welcome to show that can go anywhere just not outside of my house.
