Aidan and Noah dive deep into the evolution of weight loss reality television and its portrayal of body image over the years.

He says his philosophy has served him well—he's always comfortable with who he is. But he's had to deal with uncomfortable situations. He shares with Jeanne how he bounced back from his biggest career setback, what he learned from his beloved grandfather that still rings true today, why a support system is key to survival, how cutting across the grain feeds your passions, how being an identical twin shaped his life, and why your job title isn't your identity.About Dr. Ian:Dr. Ian Smith is the author of the 21 books including #1 New York Times bestsellers, Shred: The Revolutionary Diet, and Super Shred: The Big Results Diet, and Blast the Sugar Out.

Rhonda Britten became an orphan at fourteen when she was the sole witness to the tragedy that no child should have to witness. This traumatic experience led Rhonda down a path of three suicide attempts, three DUI's, addiction, and spending time in jail.  When she woke up from her third failed suicide attempt, she knew she had to find the answer to her pain, or she'd stay forever stuck in a spiral of depression, suicidal thoughts, and addiction forever.After looking for relief in therapy and searching for answers in books, she found that she still believed that no matter what she did or how hard she tried, she couldn't overcome her past. But one day she started putting gold star stickers on a piece of cardboard when she accomplished a small task, and it was this exercise that not only set her free but led her down a path of success that she never could have imagined.   This simple yet life-altering method was the beginning of a successful coaching program called Fearless Living that has helped thousands of people.  Rhonda established The Fearless Living Institute in 1995. It hosts book groups, online courses, in-person experiential workshops, “Fearless You” membership, and certifies Fearless Living Life Coaches and trainers based on Rhonda's teachings. The Fearless Living Life Coach Certification Program is considered the Ivy League of Life Coaching Training.Rhonda is also an Emmy Award-winner, four-time Bestselling author, Repeat Oprah guest, TEDx Speaker, and has devoted her life to one thing: teaching people how to master fear.  Rhonda was the first Life Coach on television on the show, "Help Me, Rhonda." She is also known for her work on the hit NBC reality show "Starting Over." After all her success celebrities came calling, and she joined the cast of "Celebrity Fit Club." She has also been interviewed on “Steve Harvey,” and “The Early Show.” To date, she has been featured in Good Housekeeping, London Sunday Times and The New York Times heralded her as "America's Favorite Life Coach.”  Oh, and if that is not enough Marianne Williamson, the author of A Course in Miracles said, "Rhonda Britten has risen from the ashes of genuine catastrophe. She has seen the deepest darkness and found her way beyond it. Hers was not an easy path by any means. What she has accomplished within herself, and now helps others to accomplish as well is nothing short of miraculous." And today she is with us on Cracking Open to teach resiliency, empower growth and be a deep example of still being able to love.Learn more about Rhonda Britten here:  https://fearlessliving.org/Get her books here: https://www.amazon.com/Rhonda-Britten/e/B001IU0NHQ%3Fref=dbs_a_mng_rwt_scns_shareLearn more about Molly Carroll here: https://molly-carroll.com/Get your free Body Emotion Map: https://mollycarrollprograms.com/mapFree Monthly Training: https://mollycarrollprograms.com/freetrainingFind me on SocialInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/mollycarrollinc/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Molly-Carroll-Writes-420796934793507/ 

Join us as we take a journey through Celebrity Chef Adrian Perez's rise to the top! Adrian Perez was born in the small quaint town of Beeville, Tx. He spent his childhood, knee hi, watching his father, Ruben Perez, run a Tex-Mex restaurant, and mother Leticia Perez, run a women's gift shop and boutique. His father finally decided to end his 30 year long run in the restaurant industry selling the business. Never having a job outside the family businesses, he started his first outside work experience at the HEB Grocery Store Chain. Adrian attended Culinary School at Del Mar College. He soon was promoted to Manager. A call from corporate HEB and the local Corpus Christi Channel 3 news station opened the first door into an extended career in media. Live cooking demos on the 30 year long running show, Domingo Live, was his first TV appearance as a chef. Soon after, local hip hop station offered him a position as an Emcee Hosting shows at a nightclub, cutting commercials for the radio, and broadcasting live from club events. He then made the move, with HEB, to Houston, TX. In Adrian's first week in Houston, he became the official HEB TV Correspondent for Houston's live audience show, Great Day Houston with Debra Duncan on KHOU Channel 11. Other TV cooking spots came about for Channel 2 News “Cooking Time with HEB”, Good Taste TV with Emmy Award winning Tanji Patton, and News Channel CW 39. Adrian also had the pleasure of working on television with Skinny Girl Mogul Bethany Frankel and Celebrity Fit Club and weight loss expert Dr. Ian Smith. Continuing his steady career with television, a full-time position at HEB, and Complete Eats growing as a business, Adrian decided to take the plunge, and leave HEB after 11 years of service. Adrian made it to national television as a competitor on The Food Network, but soon found himself living out of his jeep and sleeping in his rented commercial kitchen common area just to make ends meet. It was during the darkest and most difficult time of his life that his determination and passion for excellent customer service earned Adrian a referral and opportunity to serve as private chef to the late President Bush Sr. and Mrs. Barbara Bush. President Bush & Mrs. Bush had not only granted him an opportunity for work, but served as a reminder of how far he had come. Over the next 2 years Adrian's presence on local news channels expanded from Houston to multiple others in San Antonio, Beaumont, El Paso, Laredo, Austin, Dallas & Corpus Christi providing culinary infotainment all over Texas & more. As a creative, Chef Adrian recently added “actor” to the list of outlets as he walked into his first and only audition, and booked his first role in a movie. Aside from a life of daily work and following numerous passions, Adrian dedicates all philanthropic time and efforts to raising up women. Starting with his mother, a breast cancer survivor and business owner herself, to his entrepreneurial great great great grandmother, he credits the female influences in his life to be the unsung heroes and true mentors that have taught him the important keys to happiness, emotional intelligence and success.

This week I’m joined by Dr. Ian K. Smith. Many of us know Dr. Ian from his various appearances on Celebrity Fit Club, The View, as corresponding anchor on NBC news and anchor contributor to HealthWatch. He’s also a New York Times best selling author, having written 16 books with the 17th releasing soon - keep an eye out for Clean and Lean: 30 Days, 30 Foods, A New You!He takes us on a journey of truth and we do a bit of a deep dive into his book, Ancient Nine. It’s the most autobiographical of his books, about a kid from the other side of the tracks who is mysteriously invited to join one of Harvard’s ancient, elite, secret societies where he unknowingly and unwittingly joins the process to try out for membership. This story was a 20 year work in progressTune to hear Dr. Ian drops gem after gem about the importance of hard work, the power of relationships, and living life on full blast.Host: Dr. Seku GathersGuest: Dr. Ian K. SmithResources:Dr. Ian Smith - website@doctoriansmith - Instagram@driansmith - TwitterDr. Ian Smith - FacebookThe Ancient Nine - FacebookThe Ancient Nine - AmazonThe Road to 20 Challenge - FacebookClean & Lean: 30 Days, 30 Foods, a New You! - Amazon (Pre Order)Time Stamps: [3:28] Personal & Professional Truth: Dr. Ian talks about his third year in medical school when he was going through rotations in various disciplines. During a particular rotation, he was called into the office of one of the professors on service - a meeting he thought was going to result in a mentorship or him receiving kudos on his work. Turns out, he was told that he was carrying himself and dressing in a manner that was above his station. This was a tricky moment for Ian. He had been dressing well to present himself in the most professional light. In that moment, he had to figure out what was truly going in with the conversation and how to best handle it (he typically has a very direct approach) without jeopardizing his grade. Ian chose to tread lightly - he thanked the professor for sharing and explained that he dressed that way because he wanted to put his best foot forward. It was then that he realized the truth, he is not someone who can operate well in a hierarchy. That instance taught him, very early on, that being in the hierarchy of medicine, in a traditional sense, wasn’t his path - especially in situations where he’d have to hold his tongue for the sake of being politically correct.[12:19]Hard Work and Motivation: Dr. Ian explains that he’s a very motivated person. He likes to work, likes the feeling of working and likes what it brings him; he feels better when he works for it. I asked him about his Instagram post “I may not be as good as you but I will outwork you,” and he said it’s how he’s won the game. He will work and work, this is something he tries to impart to his followers, particularly those seeking weight loss transformations; you have to work hard for what you want in life. Dr. Ian says putting in that effort and yielding your result tastes so much sweeter and feels so much better.[23:06]Leave Something in the Tank: We talked about his writing process; he says his writing is zone like and he’s constantly in the flow. He offered a key piece of advice: he makes sure that when he’s done writing, he doesn’t stop when he runs out of ideas, he stops where he still has more to tell. This is done so that he has somewhere to pick up the next day. Dr. Ian doesn’t run his tank down to E, he leaves with about a ¼ remaining and that has stopped him from getting writers block, helping him to continue to create. His advice to young writers is to spend time just writing and then go back to make your edits. Trying to do, what his son calls, “surgery” on your writing while in the midst of creating can be challenging to the process.[30:01]Doctors and Artists: Dr. Ian and I share similar passions for art and medicine, this struck me when I read that he calls himself an artist and I asked when he came to that realization. At nine years old he knew he wanted to be a doctor and that he was a very creative person. He knew that his life was going to be involved in story in some form. During his first year in college his aunt, who is an avid reader, told him to pick up The Firm. That book was a game changer for him, the story was so gripping - he knew that he wanted to create story to ignite those same feelings that he had while reading the book.Yes or BSDr. Ian Smith prefers wearing the goatee?Weight loss is primarily psychological?In life shooting your shot is always the right choice?The number one status symbol for men is settling down and starting a family?Dr. Ian K.

We're serving a double dose of white nonsense this week, as we dive into not one but TWO albums by pasty, melanin-deficient emcees. VQ of the Boston League of Wicked Wrestlers joins us as we discuss Playing With Fire, the first and last release from former Britney Spears beau, WWE superstar, and Celebrity Fit Club alum Kevin Federline. Later on, our good friend Brittni joins the fray as we shift gears from white trash to cursed white liberals and subject ourselves to Long Island trio Northern State's debut album Dying In Stereo. Chock full of forced literary references, cringeworthy boasts and reckless cultural appropriation, Dying In Stereo was depressingly well received by music critics upon its release. Will we also give these talentless young white women a pass because they're so well read? Find out today on Make It Stop!

The Boyz of OUTSpoken talk to Bruce Vilanch and Jeffery Johns creator of “Waiting in the Wings”OUTSpoken Jeffrey A Johns started singing and dancing ever since he was old enough to walk and talk. In fact, he was performing in his church choir before he even knew how to read! At a young age he performed in local theatre and the oldest running Minstrel Show in the world. I guess it’s no surprise that Jeffrey still loves the music of Vaudeville. When he wasn’t on stage, Jeffrey was a competitive swimmer and a Boy Scout. To many people’s surprise, this song and dance guy eventually earned the rank of Eagle Scout. After high school Jeffrey went off to college and continued studying theatre, but decided he also wanted to focus on children’s entertainment. He graduated from Manhattanville College with a degree in Elementary Education and Performance. Following college, Jeffrey moved to California where he was performing at Disneyland, with regional theater companies, on national/international tours, sweeping movie theatre floors, and living off peanut butter and jelly while enjoying the life of an actor. Eventually he headed to Las Vegas performing with the cast of Naked Boys Singing and Tony ‘n Tina’s Wedding at the Planet Hollywood. With his return to California, Jeffrey continued to performing in theatre, but also started working in film and television. He appeared several times on America’s Got Talent and a variety of television series, web-series, and feature films. He wrote a children’s book entitled, “Have You Ever Tried To Stop The Rain?” and the feature film, Waiting In The Wings: The Musical.   Synopsis: Waiting In The Wings: The Musical is a feature film where two entertainers, destined for the big time, are mismatched in a casting office from two very different online contests. Tony, a stripper from New York, is cast in an Off-Broadway musical and needs to trade in his tear-away trunks for tap shoes and tights. Anthony, a naive musical theatre enthusiast from Montana, needs to decide if he can strip all the way down just to stay in town. Hilarity ensues as they realize that “to make it” they’re gonna have to learn some new tricks. Shirley Jones, Sally Struthers, and Lee Meriwether round out this heartwarming homage to Broadway with some delightful cameos.

He has co-authored twenty-three Academy Award spectacles, winning two writing Emmys in the process (almost as good a nominee/win ratio as Meryl Streep’s). He has also been nominated for seven other Emmys — one of them was for his participation on the celebrity panel of HOLLYWOOD SQUARES, where he resided for six years just to the left of Whoopi on your screen. For two years, he starred on Broadway and the road as Edna Turblad, Baltimore’s most glamorous plus-sized tootsie, in the musical HAIRSPRAY. His one-man show, ALMOST FAMOUS – he had that title first, dammit – was a big hit a few years before that. He is so well-known as a provider of comic material for other performers that Harvey Weinstein made a documentary about it (during the Miramax years). GET BRUCE features comic deconstructions by such Vilanch collaborators as Bette Midler, Billy Crystal, Robin Williams, Whoopi Goldberg and a roster of others from Michael Douglas (soon to be seen as Liberace!) to Nathan Lane to Paul Reiser to Lily Tomlin to Shirley MacLaine. In addition to the Oscars, he has co-written many Tonys, Emmys, Grammys, Peoples Choice, American Comedy Awards, TV Land Awards, SAG Awards, and a ton of other pageants, roasts, tributes and various trumped-up reasons for people to enjoy t&a on a red carpet. Many of his collaborators have gone to Broadway with his material, including Diana Ross, Michael Feinstein and Michael Buble’ and the late Peter Allen, whose stage shows he wrote and subsequently re-wrote for Hugh Jackman when he played Peter in THE BOY FROM OZ. He has co-authored multiple dozens of variety television shows and actually put words in the mouth of Cher. People recognize him a lot – some think he’s Michael Moore, but no – from his appearances on MILLIONAIRE MATCHMAKER, CELEBRITY FIT CLUB (where he lost 21 lbs, which he subsequently found), THE WORLD’S DUMBEST CRIMINALS, THE 100 MOST SHOCKING MOMENTS IN SHOW BUSINESS, LIVE WITH REGIS & ELLY (where he shaved his beard to play Edna), JIMMY KIMMEL LIVE, THE VIEW, THE JOY BEHAR SHOW, MATCH GAME (a special version hosted by Ricki Lake) and a raft of others. He’s also a lyricist, scoring gold and platinum records for disco songs he wrote for Eartha Kitt (WHERE IS MY MAN?) and Village People. Pre-HAIRSPRAY, geeks of all ages will remember him as Weird Wendon, the evil emperor with a big head but no body, in ICE PIRATES, or in THE MORNING AFTER (with Jane Fonda). Musical theatre geeks will remember him as the co-author of the Broadway misfire called PLATINUM, which was revived off-Broadway last season for reasons which continue to mystify Bruce.
