The Land of Frozen Suns is primarily an action and adventure novel which takes place near the northern most reaches of British Columbia at the foothills of the Rocky Mountains. Bob Sumner, after having been shanghaied onto a boat heading north up the Mississippi from his comfortable home town of St. Louis, is put to work on the "New Moon" and finds himself in the much less comfortable territory mentioned earlier, where he is forced to learn all about treachery, double-crossing, and finds his trust in fellow man questioned more often than he was accustomed to. At the same time, he finds himself needing to learn how to survive in an environment which seemed the antithesis to his old style of life.

Qool DJ Marv For MamaSoul & Friends at The Harlem Connection on WBAI-FM NYC - Aired May 14 2021 After 18 years living in Washington Heights/Harlem, I moved to Crown Heights Brooklyn when my son, who I co-parent, was accepted to Yale...starting a new phase in his and our lives. I left Harlem after subtly, over time, becoming a contributor to its culture and vibe. DJ Stormin Norman started Sundae Sermon with DJs Cosi and me joining him as the original groove masters. Thanks to Lisa Yancey, DJ Damon Alston and me were the resident DJs for the Apollo Music Cafe, almost a decade ago! Shout out to Dwight Jordan and the Apollo Fam...still going strong, keeping on and on. I thought I died and went to heaven when Marcus Samuelsson's Red Rooster added me to their DJ roster where I would play 3x a week sometimes. First time in a long time (since Sylvia's), the Red Rooster restaurant in Harlem brought jobs, tourists and celebrities back to Harlem in droves in the early 20-teens. They keep on growing, Red Rooster is in the UK and recently opened in Miami. Lucky me, I got another turn at doing something on-going at the Apollo Theater when Bob Sumner had me join his vision for a comedy club experience at the Apollo in the Apollo Music Cafe. The Apollo Comedy Club was established in 2015 and will re-emerge in October 2021. The 1st 5 years were just the warm-up. A very special thanks to Glenn G-Man Holt, a Harlem born and raised man with a gift for bringing people together. My first true friend in New York City, my guide, my brother (RIP). Thanks to MamaSoul, I reminisced about Harlem and put together a set of Harlem influences on me. Her show, on WBAI 99.5 NYC, is called the Harlem Connection and she and her partners shine a light on the music, history and impact of the metropolis of Harlem. Here is the link to the entire episode with the interview + the mix + much more music, sounds and connections by the THC fam: https://wbai.org/archive/program/episode/?id=22515 https://linktr.ee/qooldjmarv

Def Comedy Jam co-creator and Laff Mobb's Laff Tracks producer Bob Freaking Sumner talks to Tokyo about growing up in a barbershop, the heaviest jazz clubs in NY circa 2008, and living on Palm Drive in Beverly Hills!

Welcome to the Creative Breakthrough    I am your host Shereen Kassam    This week, we continue our conversation with the Founder of Def Comedy Jam – Bob Sumner    Before we jump in to part 2 of our conversation with Bob –    This season, I’m going to spend a lot of time talking about monetizing your creative passion and side hustles.      With many cities starting to open up performance spaces such as bars, clubs, and theater spaces I want to share some personal thoughts.    Yes, people are struggling financially.  Yes, unemployment is high.  Yes, people are scaling back on their spending.    But – people are still paying Netflix, Hulu, and Disney+ their monthly subscription.  People are still eating out.  And people are still buying things they don’t need on Amazon.      So you do not need to start charging less than you are worth.      Yes, we are all excited to get back out there and start performing.  Yes, there may be less people in the seats due to social distancing.  Yes, the promotor may tell you he won’t be making as much money from each show.  But no, that doesn’t mean you are worth any less.    I’ve been getting tons of audition requests for acting.  Pre-Covid these requests were for $1500 to $2000 for a one year buy out.  Now?  These requests are for $400 and for use for life.  That’s cheap! And as much as I want to act again, and perform, I cannot allow myself to sell my image for life for $400 and neither should you.      The companies paying for these commercials stand to gain thousands of dollars from these ads, so why shouldn’t you also benefit?    As your cities start opening up and people start reaching out to you to perform, please do not perform for free if the producers of the shows/commercials stand to make money.    Because if we all go out and perform for free, we set a precedent of how much we value ourselves and of our talents.      And if you don’t get paid, how are you going to survive on your art?        This week I continue chatting with Bob Sumner –   On the previous episode, Bob shared his vision for Def Comedy Jam, what he looks for in talent, and his advice to creatives.      Bob is best known as the co-creator of HBO’s Russell Simmon’s Def Comedy Jam, a recognized force in the world of comedy and the man behind most comedy legends.  With over 25 years of experience, Bob has discovered many of the top gifted comedians that have graced the stages and big screens around the world, including Kevin Hart, Bill Bellamy, Mike Epps, Dave Chapelle, Sheryl Underwood, Chris Tucker, Cedric The Entertainer, and Bernie Mac.  One day, he will add me to this list!    Bob is the executive partner in LaffMobb Enterprises which has produced specials that have aired on Showtime, DirectTV and OnDemand.  He is also the executive producer of LaffMobb’s We Got Next and LaffMobb’s LaffTracks.     So what are we waiting for, let’s get started.     Key Questions answered by Bob Sumner:  Which is better LA or NYC for creatives  What Bob wants his legacy to be     Bob Sumner Discusses:  Bob’s advice for comedians and creatives   How to be successful as a creative  Next on Bob’s journey    Key Takeaways from Bob Sumner  Know your end goal or your legacy  Keep creating, even if there is nowhere to perform   Speak your goals in to existence    Contact Bob:  Facebook: .com/groups/130660473567  Twitter: twitter.com/bobsumner24  Instagram: Instagram.com/bob.sumner    Who am I?    I’m Shereen Kassam, the host of Creative Breakthrough and internationally touring speaker and comedian.  If you are looking for a speaker to talk on topics including creativity, branding, or work life balance, get in touch!

A lot can happen in 30 years of broadcasting, and in this episode Bob Sumner, AKA News Bob, walks us through his lengthy career in broadcast media, from his first TV job at the Calgary '88 Olympics through the golden age of broadcasting and up to today when Twitter drives the news cycle. We talk about about witnessing history 5 feet in front of your nose, the importance of objective journalism, how to stop fearing change, and the bizarre Calgary icon known as Crack Macs.When Calgary's craft beer scene began to develop Bob would have the opportunity to meet Mark and other key players in the local beer scene, and would find himself gravitating towards doing news stories about the amazing things going on in this community. It would prove to be a welcome reprise from the doom and gloom that normally dominates the news cycle that put Bob at the epicentre of every fire, car crash, and murder in the city.Even with the inspiration of Calgary's brewers Bob would find himself feeling burned out on being a bad news dude and as he approached 60 felt it was time for a change. Today Bob is the Director of Media Relations and Business Development at Parker PR, a boutique Public Relations firm based in Kensington. Now News Bob gets to be only a good news dude, helping local businesses and brands to build up their following through news appearances, community building, and giving back to the community around them.What's next for Bob? Who knows! In five years he thinks perhaps he'll retire, but doesn't think he'll ever truly be out of the game. One thing is for certain though, Bob will be heeding the call of the open road atop his motorbike.—Get your own copy of the books and music discussed in this episode:Mark Manson | The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck—Let's Meet For A Beer!Alberta Beer Festivals: website | twitter | instagramBob Sumner: website | twitter | instagram

Episode 488 of Folk Roots Radio features a great interview with Annie Capps, from the Michigan based duo Annie & Rod Capps, who joins us to chat about their latest album “When They Fall”, a wonderful collection of songs that really fits every mood – from the light and cheery, to the serious and dramatic. What all these songs have in common is they are all very well-written, and beautifully sung and played – by a fine group of musicians. When They Fall deservedly became one of 'Our Favourite Albums of 2019'. We also take a look back at more of the albums we enjoyed last year, and this time around we hear from Burnstick, Bob Sumner, Ken Tizzard, Jackson Grimm, Còig, Linda McRae, Celeigh Cardinal and Forest Sun. Check out the playlist on the website: https://folkrootsradio.com/folk-roots-radio-episode-488-feat-annie-capps-annie-rod-capps-more-favourite-albums-of-2019/

Big news – we are trending in Kenya!! Thank you to my Kenyan listeners.   This is my last episode for 2019.  Last year, I did an episode on goal setting and how much I love the end of the year because it’s a time to reflect on the past year and plan for the next year.  If you struggle with goal setting check out last year’s episode and download my goal setting worksheet.   December is a difficult month for me.  I always find myself in a funk.  This year I feel like I’m in a funk because I feel I didn’t accomplish as much as I had hoped.  But thank goodness for Instagram for reminding me of all the things I did accomplish!   I knew 2019 was not going to be the best year.  I was in a miserable job and would spend the first 7 months of the year actively job searching.  And when you start a new job, most of your time is focused on the learning curve and doing a great job.  I did get super lucky with my new job – I was on the launch team for Disney+ so there’s a win there, but man was I busy!    Comedy took a back burner this year.  I didn’t do half as many shows as I would have liked, but I also didn’t try.  I said no to more shows then yes.  And as I’m saying this I’m contemplating if it’s time to stop doing comedy and focus my attention elsewhere.  Perhaps comedy is a stepping stone to something else.  Or maybe it was a means to find myself.    I also feel I’m in a funk because I have no idea what I’m doing with my life.  I want to do everything and I did, this year. I did comedy, I acted, I did radio, I did this podcast, I started a business, I played competitive sports, I tried to do it all.  But where am I going?  What’s the end goal?   I have no idea! And as the year went by, auditions stopped coming my way, I stopped being invited to come on the radio, my relationship began to fall apart, and by December all I have is this podcast.  And while I love doing this podcast, I felt by now it would be further along.   I didn’t accomplish the goals I was hoping to.  I didn’t do a TED talk.  I didn’t write a second screenplay.  I didn’t write a one-woman play for the Fringe, crap I even forgot to submit to the lottery. Or maybe I didn’t forget and I’m scared of failing?   I didn’t advance my creative career.  I mean both Jeff Friday, the founder of American Black Film Festival, and Bob Sumner, the founder of Def Comedy Jam commented on my lack of presence in the comedy scene this year and that put me in a bigger funk.      I feel stagnant this year as if I lack motivation and inspiration.      Yes, I had big wins. I started a business that may lead me to financial freedom.  I have been podcasting for 1 full year now! Woot woot!  I made it to the finals of Florida’s Funniest and did comedy in Africa.  And those are big wins! But for some reason, I don’t feel fulfilled.   I didn’t win any competitions. I didn’t travel as much for comedy or speaking.  I didn’t attend any festivals.  I didn’t have those moments where I felt all my hard work was paying off.      I’ve been having urges to start writing.  But that could be because I binged watched 5 seasons of Jane the Virgin.  Which is how I’ve been spending most of my free time lately – watching TV.  Which is not like me.  But even with that I’ve been asked to submit writing samples for various competitions and I just sat back and watched the deadlines pass.  I don’t know why I didn’t submit.    I’ve started researching MFA programs.  If anyone listening has an MFA, please reach out, I would love to pick your brain.  But again, I’m not sure if I really want an MFA or I’m doing it because it will surround me with creatives and hopefully inspire me.    I know in 2020 I want to select one of two goals to focus on. I realize that I can’t do everything.  Over the past few weeks I’ve been in a state of exhaustion.  Maybe it’s because I’m doing better waking up before work to work out lol.  But I feel I need to focus my time on my main goals, because if I try to do everything I may never succeed.   The question is – what are the main goals? I have no idea!!   So I know for the next few weeks before 2020 gets here I am going to spend a lot of time thinking about what is next for me.  What do I want to accomplish in 2020.  And if you have any thoughts or advice, please let me know!   And it wouldn’t be a Creative Breakthrough episode without some Instragram love.  If you’re new to this podcast, I love Instagram quotes.  The quote for 2020 is:    Don’t be surprised if you go from depending on a paycheck to making the FORBES list! It’s your winning season.   Id love to know what your goals for 2020 are! Send me a message at info@funnybrowngirl.com or drop it on the facebook page.   So what I’m trying to say is, if you feel unsure of your creative career or goals, it’s OK.  We can figure it out together.  Perhaps we can have a virtual round table or conference call with a handful of listeners and brainstorm and help each other flush out 2020 goals and ideas to act upon them.  If this is something you would be interested in, let me know and let’s make it happen!   Again, as the year comes to an end, I want to say thank you to each and every one of you for tuning in to this podcast.  I love sharing guest stories with you and I do hope they are informational and insightful.  I wish you and your families a Happy Holiday’s.  And remember, if you don’t know what to get me for Christmas, an Apple review will be awesome!   Now go flex your creative muscle and keep winning.

Lexington Steele streams LIVE right here on Wednesday at 9pm PT. August 28, 2013 THE LEXINGTON STEELE LIVE SHOW http://toadhopnetwork.com/ Show #13 GUEST: XXX Superstar BRIDGETTE B and TV Executive BOB SUMNER The most engaging hour of online programming, The Lexington Steele Live Show (@LexSteeleLive), hosted by Lex Steele (@LexSteele11) and Thomas Ward (@BadTweetTWard), welcomed adult media, blond bombshell, Bridgette B (@SpanishDollxxx). Arriving deep into the hour, one of the most influential men in comedy, Bob Sumner (@BobSumner24) joined the show, as well. Bridgette B is the covergirl and star of over 200+ movies in her career of just over 3 years. She stars in "Lex's Breast Fest" a Lexington Steele Production/ Evil Angel Video. Her popularity has jettisoned over the last two years as her reputation for great performances and prescence has grown. While she is cast most often as a "latin" performer, she expressed her heritage is actually Spanish, as in from Barcelona. She credits her command of the language and her incredible all natuarl tan for her popularity fitting the Spanish Doll fantasy held in greatest esteem by most redblooded men. Ms. B. tours the U.S. and may be dancing at a gentlemen's club near you. The interview was tremendous, as she shared some of her most intimitate moments and unique perspectives for the fans and view of the show. Late in the hour, hosts Steele and Ward were happy to welcome Bob Sumner to the studio. With less than the time necessary to really engage Mr. Sumner, his visit was brief. Tward enthusiastically introduced Bob to the show and there were a few important points of interest shared within the brief segment closing out the episode. Bob is responsible for establishing the careers of some of the biggest stars in comedy today. Watch the show to find out just a few of the stars he discovered. The Lex Live Show looks forward to having Bob on again, such that a full hour can be dedicated to what goes into creating mega star comedians. All in all, a wonderful hour of entertainment for our most appreciated audience. "The Lexington Steele Live Show," airs every Wednesday, from 9-10pm PST on ToadHopNetwork.com. Calls are welcomed at 323-622-8623. "LexLive" will continue to broaden the subjects of discussion to ensure that sex talk meets real talk. "RADIO WORTH WATCHING!!!"
