We go straight at it today with Celebrity News! Is proposing during the Super Bowl the ultimate romantic gesture—or just a way to guarantee your engagement photos smell like buffalo chicken dip? The Rizzuto Show debates a listener's halftime proposal idea and somehow turns it into a full-blown relationship autopsy complete with ranch stains, Kid Rock jokes, and worst-case-scenario crowd reactions.From there, things go exactly where you'd expect: nowhere reasonable. The crew reacts to Bad Bunny's upcoming Super Bowl halftime show, discusses why performers make zero dollars for the biggest stage on Earth, and dives into newly discovered Ozzy Osbourne rehearsal tapes recorded right after his split from Black Sabbath. This naturally evolves into the accidental creation of a new music genre called Cigarette Mom Rock, featuring smoky kitchens, indoor ashtrays, and aggressively emotional 90s anthems.The nostalgia doesn't stop there. Childhood icons are dragged into the light as Mr. Wizard is exposed as possibly the angriest man to ever teach science to children. Bill Nye somehow escapes unscathed, dinosaurs make a triumphant return thanks to Spielberg and Morgan Freeman, and Guns N' Roses fandom takes over the studio with passionate debates over intros, ballads, and Axel Rose's voice.This episode is a perfect snapshot of a funny podcast doing what it does best—overthinking everything, oversharing trauma, and laughing through pop culture chaos. If you're looking for a daily dose of sarcasm, nostalgia, and unhinged conversation, this funny podcast delivers exactly what it promises. Consider this your warning and your invitation.It's messy. It's unhinged. It's extremely on-brand.

Menard: Greater Than Gravity, How Childhood Trauma is Pulling Down HumanityWhat if America's #3 leading cause of death has been hiding in plain sight?In Greater Than Gravity, Michael Menard exposes a devastating truth that will shock the world: Childhood trauma is killing 889 Americans every day—more than accidents, strokes, and diabetes combined. Yet it doesn't appear on any official cause-of-death list because we've been counting the bodies wrong.When someone with severe childhood trauma dies of a "heart attack" at 55 instead of 75, we call it heart disease. When they overdose, it's addiction. When they take their own life, it's suicide. But strip away the medical terminology and you see the truth: these are trauma deaths, pure and simple."This is the largest threat to the well-being of humanity known today." —Dr. Glenn Schiraldi, world-renowned trauma expertAfter building a corporate empire and creating fourteen revolutionary patents, Menard made a discovery that stopped him cold. While writing his memoir about growing up with thirteen siblings, he realized their "tough childhood" was actually complex trauma. Its deadly fingerprints were everywhere—two brothers lost to addiction, his family stalked by depression, and invisible wounds that bled across generations.His engineer's mind couldn't let it go.What he uncovered will change everything: Childhood Trauma is the #1 cause of addiction, suicide and incarceration. 89% of teen suicide attempts trace to childhood trauma. 85-100% of addiction patients have trauma histories. 90% of prisoners carry childhood scars. The $14 trillion annual cost exceeds our entire defense budget. We've been treating symptoms while the real epidemic claims nearly 900 lives daily.But here's what no one saw coming: The very force pulling humanity down could become the force that lifts us up.Greater Than Gravity isn't just a book—it's the battle cry that breaks the silence on America's hidden killer. Through his foundation UACT, Menard presents the first comprehensive plan to end childhood trauma entirely. Not reduce it. Not manage it. END IT. The 889 daily deaths we could prevent. The lives we could heal. The future we could change.It all starts with opening this book.Labeled as "non college bound" he was placed in a trade school program. At the age of twenty-one Michael Menard joined Johnson & Johnson to operate the blueprint machine. Twenty-five years later he was named the company's first VP of engineering and an officer of the company with responsibilities in forty-four countries. Now labeled as "exemplary creator", he has received fourteen US and multiple international patents, including the inventions of infant disposable diapers with elastic legs and sanitary napkins with wings for women.As co-founder and president of The GenSight Group, a company helping corporations find a systematic approach to strategic choice and resource optimization, Michael has advised senior leadership at institutions such as Fedex, Westinghouse, Cisco, Glaxo, Pfizer, Coca-Cola, and the US Department of Energy. Michael has contributed to numerous professional publications including Harvard Management Update, Gartner Research, and The Journal of the American Management Association.https://www.michaeljmenard.com/aboutBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/earth-ancients--2790919/support.

Keith Petty believes he would likely be dead from alcohol consumption if cannabis had not entered his life, as he consumed alcohol daily for years and engaged in destructive occasional drinking.Childhood trauma began early for Keith with his mother's incarceration and substance abuse problems, his grandparents' divorce when he was six or seven, and eventual placement in foster care at age 13 due to medical neglect.Foster care placement initially created culture shock as Keith moved from a chaotic household where his uncle sold marijuana to a strict religious family with no television and church three times weekly.Violence occurred in Keith's second foster home over sexuality issues and an AOL gay chat room incident, leading to his placement with a neighbor who became his permanent foster mother until age 19.Alcoholism escalated after Keith's first relationship ended, leading to ten years of reckless destruction including credit card fraud using his company's credit card for partying purposes.Legal consequences resulted in Keith facing jail time for credit card fraud and forgery at age 26, but he qualified for Virginia's first-time offenders program requiring two years of drug court and outpatient rehabilitation.Recovery through court-ordered sobriety was challenging as Keith had no family financial support system, forcing him to give up his leased home and handle legal consequences independently.A severe accident occurred in 2020 when Keith fell while day drinking during COVID quarantine, breaking his tibia, fibula, talus, and calcaneus bones, requiring surgery with rods and screws and causing permanent nerve damage.Blood alcohol content measured 0.34 the morning after Keith's accident, more than four times the legal limit of 0.08, highlighting the severity of his alcohol consumption.Pain management options were rejected by Keith due to family history with opiates, and high-dose ibuprofen consumption threatened organ damage, leading his doctor to suggest cannabis as an alternative.Cannabis treatment began with edibles and vaping cartridges, successfully managing Keith's pain while allowing his doctor to discontinue his Xanax prescription and break a generational cycle of benzodiazepine dependence.Mental health improvements from cannabis included reduced stress, better ADHD management alongside his Vyvanse prescription, and clearer thinking without sedation or brain fog.Business opportunity emerged when Keith was overcharged at a vape shop, inspiring him to convert his old party bus into a mobile cannabis dispensary serving farmer's markets, biker events, and local fairs.Sobriety from alcohol has been maintained for two years without AA meetings, as cannabis helped Keith view alcohol differently and removed its appeal entirely.  Visit our website: CannabisHealthRadio.comFind high-quality cannabis and CBD + get free consultations at MyFitLife.net/cannabishealthDiscover products and get expert advice from Swan ApothecaryFollow us on Facebook.Follow us on Instagram.Find us on Rumble.Keep your privacy!

The panel explored the intersection of natural and man-made materials in landscape design, highlighting the balance between aesthetic, sustainability, and functional concerns. Participants discussed how interior and landscape designers borrow nature to create cohesive environments, including outdoor “rooms” and hardscape features softened with plantings. Material selection — stone, metal, glass, composite decking, and synthetic turf — was debated, with attention to local sourcing, durability, environmental impact, and client expectations. The panel also emphasized the sensory experience of landscapes, touching on sight, sound, smell, and taste, and how design can evoke memory and emotion. Sustainability, fire safety, maintenance, and longevity were recurring themes, particularly in the adoption of synthetic materials that mimic natural ones while reducing environmental or upkeep costs. Borrowed landscape: Using surrounding natural colors and textures to inform material choices in hardscape design. Softening hardscape: Plantings and layered design to maintain depth without overwhelming the property. Context-appropriate material selection: Stone, metal, glass, gravel, and concrete chosen according to environment, use, and climate. Trend toward natural imperfection: Broken edges, less precision, biophilic design responding to a highly digital, precise world. Sustainability tensions: Balancing natural and synthetic materials for longevity, cost, and environmental impact. Synthetic decking and recycled composites: TimberTech and similar products for durability, low maintenance, and fire safety. Artificial turf considerations: High-use areas, water savings, lifespan, recycling challenges. Sensory-driven design: Sight, sound, smell, and taste incorporated into landscapes for holistic human experiences. Childhood memory and emotional recall: Design that evokes personal sensory memory for users. Fire and climate constraints: Materials must meet modern safety and insurance standards.

In this episode, we're exploring the first of Francis Weller's Five Gates of Grief: "Everything we love, we will lose." This isn't just another depressing truth about life—it's a surprisingly liberating gateway to deeper love, presence, and joy. We'll share some stories and practical wisdom about how savoring practices can help us hold both love and loss simultaneously. Most importantly, we'll highlight why grief is a skill, not just a feeling, and you'll learn a simple five-minute micro-ritual for tending to loss before it accumulates. This conversation weaves together Buddhist teachings on impermanence, neuroscience research on grief and savoring, and the vital reminder that grief is absolutely a team sport.  p.s.

Wild Edge of Sorrow by Francis Weller "Grief is not a feeling, grief is a skill." — Francis Weller "Ritual is a maintenance practice that offers us the means of tending wounds and sorrows, for offering gratitude, allowing our psyches regular periods of release and renewal." — Francis Weller "Half of any person is wrong and weak and off the beaten path. Half the other half is dancing and laughing and swimming in the invisible joy." — Rumi "We are all the walking wounded in a world that is a war zone. Everything we love will be taken from us. Everything. Last of all life itself. Yet this reality does not diminish love. It shows us that loving is the most important business." -Christina Pinkola Estés' Website  Skye Cielita Flor & Miraz Indira, The Joyful Lament: On Pain for the World. 2023 Access here Learn more about Joanna Macy's work from the Commons Library.  Beckes & Sbarra, Social baseline theory: State of the science and new directions.

In today's episode, Christina Dinur and Amanda Metropolus from RECONNECT MILWAUKEE talk about how and why they founded this group and what they hope to offer kids instead of endless (and mindless) screen time. A screen free childhood movement is growing (see links below) and it's powered by local folks who are trying to offer other ways for kids to connect, play, and experience the world IRL instead of behind a screen. There are so many ways to tap into the movement, but here are a few links, and we talk about more in this episode. And it's so much more helpful to navigate this journey with screens (and kids) together. Links from the show: RECONNECT MILWAUKEEWait until 8th PledgeSmartphone Free Childhood USOff February (global) Off February (Milwaukee) Support the showI'd love to hear what you think.

She advocates for connection over policing, treating "the talk" similar to teaching a child to cross the street. By offering simple definitions and "what-if" scripts, Greta aims to remove the stigma of these "brown bag" topics, helping families find where true healing begins.

He doesn't remember a life without it.The first experience came early — too early to fully understand, but not too early to feel. A hallway. A bedroom. A new blue teddy bear placed into a child's world still learning what was real and what wasn't. Then a voice where there shouldn't have been one.Fear came first. Then familiarity. What frightened him became something he couldn't be without.Years passed. Decades, even. He moved away, grew older, built a life — and eventually returned to the same area, closer than he ever expected to where it all began. The bear was long gone, but the sense of openness never closed. Objects still vanish. Moments still shift. The feeling of something unseen moving just beyond understanding remains constant.#RealGhostStories #Paranormal #HauntedChildhood #TrueGhostStory #Unexplained #SpiritualAwakening #LifelongHaunting #GhostPodcast #RealEncounters Love real ghost stories?

Dylan Syer speaks publicly for the first time about the high-profile accusations that upended his life, including allegations of fraud, identity theft, and grand larceny stemming from his work as a celebrity personal shopper. Prosecutors claimed Dylan used access to clients' finances to make unauthorized luxury purchases, accusations he firmly denies. In this episode, Dylan explains what he says really happened, how the charges caused his business to collapse overnight, and what it was like being sent to Rikers Island while fighting to clear his name. He also opens up about the emotional toll of the case, navigating the criminal justice system, and ultimately being sentenced to one year of weekends at Rikers — a punishment that kept him trapped between freedom and incarceration. _____________________________________________ #RikersIsland #PrisonStories #TrueCrimePodcast #CelebrityLifestyle #LifeAfterPrison #JusticeSystem #RedemptionStory #lockedin _____________________________________________ Thank you to AVA & GOLD DROP SELTZERS for sponsoring this episode: AVA: Take control of your credit today.

E439 Inner Voice A Heartfelt Chat with Dr. Foojan Zeine & Dr. Howard T. Woodruff In this deeply moving episode of Inner Voice: A Heartfelt Chat, Dr. Fujan Zain sits down with Dr. Howard T. Woodruff—life coach, trauma expert, ordained pastor, and creator of Reclaimed Living—to explore how humans transform suffering into meaning, purpose, and resilience.

In this introduction to our 10-part grief series, we'll explain why a podcast about joy is diving deep into grief—and why you can't truly have joy without grief. During this series, we'll mainly lean on Francis Weller's "gates of grief." And importantly, as we move through these gates, the goal is not to help you "get over it" or rush through some prescribed grief stages so you can dismiss "bad" feelings. Instead, we'll explore more about the healing power of grief, how you can see and accept loss with less resistance, and we'll share some practices and realistic ways you can build skills to navigate grief in more nourishing ways.  p.s.

In this powerful and deeply moving episode of the Tick Boot Camp Podcast, we sit down with Julia Bruzzese, a 22-year-old Lyme disease survivor, disability advocate, and future physician whose life was forever changed by an untreated tick bite in childhood. After developing a classic bull's-eye rash at age 9, Julia went undiagnosed for nearly two years, despite textbook symptoms of Lyme disease. By age 11, she experienced a catastrophic neurological decline that left her paraplegic and wheelchair-bound. Over the next decade, Julia saw more than 100 doctors, endured profound medical gaslighting, and navigated an exhausting journey through antibiotics, IVIG, IV antibiotics, plasmapheresis, stem cells, ozone therapy, and integrative care. Julia's story became internationally known after a moment with Pope Francis on the JFK airport tarmac went viral in 2015—an event that opened doors to care, advocacy, and awareness. She later became the emotional centerpiece of the award-winning documentary The Quiet Epidemic, appeared at New York Fashion Week as a Lyme disease advocate, and was profiled by renowned journalist Mary Beth Pfeiffer. Today, Julia is finishing her undergraduate degree and has been accepted into medical school, determined to become the kind of doctor she needed when the system failed her. This episode is a masterclass in: Pediatric Lyme disease Medical gaslighting vs. lack of education Clinical diagnosis vs. unreliable testing The patient-doctor relationship Chronic illness, disability, and purpose Why Lyme disease changes lives—and why early treatment matters Childhood Lyme Disease & Missed Diagnosis Tick bite and bull's-eye rash dismissed at age 9 Two years of worsening symptoms labeled as “growing pains,” viruses, or psychological Why early Lyme treatment saves lives Neurological Collapse & Hospital Trauma Sudden onset of paralysis, vision loss, fevers, hair loss, and weakness at age 11 Over 100 doctors and repeated hospitalizations Being accused of malingering and conversion disorder The devastating impact of medical disbelief on children The Quiet Epidemic Documentary How Julia became the heart of the film at age 12 Why she initially hesitated to share her story The emotional impact of seeing her illness reflected on screen How the documentary helps families explain Lyme disease to others Meeting Pope Francis & Global Awareness How a school principal secured last-minute tickets The Pope walks directly to Julia's wheelchair The moment that changed everything Media coverage that led to access to lifesaving care Treatment Journey Lyme-literate diagnosis by NP Somer DelSignore Oral and IV antibiotics IVIG (including under-dosing issues) Plasmapheresis POTS, Babesia, Bartonella, and autoimmune complications Stem cell therapy abroad Ozone and integrative protocols Why there is no single silver bullet for Lyme disease The Medical System & Lyme Denial Why doctors often say “it's all in your head” The difference between malice and lack of training How medical education fails chronic illness patients Fear of insurance companies, lawsuits, and “accepted guidelines” Why Lyme is a clinical diagnosis, not a test result Reframing “Medical Gaslighting” Why anger is understandable—but not always healing How patients and doctors can become better partners Understanding doctors' limitations without excusing harm Advocacy with clarity, not hostility Disability, Identity & Resilience Navigating life and education as a wheelchair user Accommodations, accessibility, and invisible illness “I have Lyme. I am not Lyme.” Learning when to rest, when to fight, and when to live Becoming the Doctor She Needed Working as a medical assistant and hospital volunteer in a wheelchair Applying to and being accepted into medical school Becoming the first wheelchair-using medical student at her institution Why lived experience belongs in medicine Medical Malpractice Lawsuit Lawsuit filed in NYC (March 2021) against multiple doctors and hospitals Failure to diagnose and treat Lyme disease despite clear evidence Why Lyme malpractice cases are rare—and necessary Seeking accountability, not revenge Purpose, Faith & Meaning From “Why me?” to “Why not me?” How suffering clarified her calling The role of faith, family, and community Why Julia wouldn't give this journey back—even now Memorable Quotes “I was criminalized as an eleven-year-old child for being sick.” “It actually was in my head—the bacteria was in my brain.” “I have Lyme disease. I am not Lyme disease.” “There is no silver bullet for Lyme. Healing is trial and error.” “I wouldn't be who I am—or know my purpose—without this journey.” Why This Episode Matters This episode is essential listening for: Parents of children with unexplained symptoms Lyme disease and chronic illness patients Medical professionals and students Advocates fighting for better diagnostics and care Anyone who has ever felt dismissed, unseen, or unheard in healthcare Julia Bruzzese's story is not just about Lyme disease—it's about truth, resilience, accountability, and hope.

In this solo episode, I talk directly to parents about how to show up for our kids when the world feels heavy and unsettling—without turning the conversation into politics. I share what research tells us about stress, co-regulation, and why our kids absorb our emotional state even when we think we're hiding it. I also offer practical guidance for talking to children at different ages, setting healthier boundaries around the news and doom scrolling, and staying grounded so we can provide safety, connection, and hope while raising compassionate, resilient humans.I WROTE MY FIRST BOOK!

Send me a DM here (it doesn't let me respond), OR email me: imagineabetterworld2020@gmail.comToday I'm honored to have back on the show for a second time: Satanic ritual abuse, sex trafficking, and Harvey Weinstein survivor and whistleblower, acclaimed actress, model, artist and painter, and a brilliant woman who has risked her life to shine a light on the darkness of her life and the lives of other victims and survivors: Paz de la Huerta Born on September 3, 1984, in the vibrant heart of New York City, Paz grew up in Tribeca surrounded by art, privilege, and hidden shadows. The daughter of a women's rights activist mother (referred to here as Judith) and a Spanish duke from noble aristocracy, her early world blended creativity with horrendous abuse - including childhood exploitation, family fractures, and a childhood marked by control and trauma that spanned continents.From a tender age, Paz turned to art as her lifeline - painting imagined safe havens and dollhouses to escape the chaos. That same creative fire propelled her into acting, where her raw, magnetic talent shone. With her striking beauty, fierce sensuality, and depth that evoked classic Hollywood sirens, Paz earned a scholarship to Saint Ann's School and graduated with one of the highest IQ scores in its storied history - proof that her intellect burned as brightly as her beauty and on-screen presence.Yet beneath the spotlight, Paz life hid unimaginable horrors. Childhood incest, familial trafficking by those closest to her, exploitation tied to powerful figures like Harvey Weinstein, and brutal assaults that shattered her trust.The last time Paz was on, we discussed her childhood, upbringing, early abuses by her father that later led to her mother selling and trafficking her to the ‘hightest bidders' like Harvey Weinstein, the emotional and physical turmoil Paz was suffering throughout her successful career as an actress and model, how art was her saving grace and outlet, a scandal involving Lana Del Ray, her pursuit for justice, and much more. I'll have the link to that episode in the show notes and highly recommend listening if you haven't already.Today, we will be continuing where we left off - exploring the devastating and severe attempts on her life that were orchestrated on-set of her films and during her treatment by doctors who were supposed to be caring for her, the spiraling health crises including brain trauma, the relentless control that came from those closest to her, her journey into whistleblowing, her spiritual awakening, her safer life on the farm with her beloved animals after escaping brutal abuse in Madrid five years ago, her newest projects and aspirations, animal rescue efforts, and her dreams of building orphanages to protect vulnerable children.DONATE TO PAZ'S GOFUNDME: https://www.gofundme.com/f/justice-for-paz-fundraiser-for-spanish-criminal-lawyers-andCONNECT WITH PAZ:TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@paz.de.la.huertaIG: https://www.instagram.com/thefugitive1984/CONNECT W/ EMMA:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@imaginationpodcastofficialEMAIL: imagineabetterworld2020@gmail.comSubstack: https://emmakatherine.substack.com/BUY ME A COFFEE: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/theimaginationVENMO: @emmapreneurCASHAPP: $EmmaKatherine1204All links: Support the show

In this episode, Caitlin continues the psychology mini-series on Erik Erikson's stages of psychosocial development. The focus is on Stage 3: Initiative vs Guilt—the developmental era where kids try things, make up games, ask why a thousand times, and learn whether their creativity is safe or shameful.We talk about how discouragement and criticism can create guilt, how neurodivergent kids get punished for being inventive, and the way early guilt can become adult executive dysfunction, perfectionism, and discomfort with doing anything “just for you.”

Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Brian Custer. Summary of the Interview On Money Making Conversations Masterclass, Rushion McDonald interviews Brian Custer—Emmy Award–winning sportscaster, ESPN anchor, play-by-play commentator, cancer survivor, fashion enthusiast, and HBCU graduate of Hampton University. The discussion moves through Custer’s early life in Columbus, Ohio; the influence of Black media figures on his career; his journey from a childhood dreamer sitting beside his grandmother watching Walter Cronkite to becoming a nationally recognized sports broadcaster; and his path into fraternity life as a member of Kappa Alpha Psi. Custer describes how he discovered broadcasting at an early age, secured internships in high school, and worked grueling night shifts in radio before transitioning into television. But the most powerful portion of the interview is his emotional recounting of his battle with aggressive prostate cancer at age 42—a diagnosis he initially wanted to hide. He shares the moment his doctor insisted he use his platform to educate men of color about prostate cancer, a mission he now treats as a calling. The interview ends with sports talk—including commentary on the Gervonta “Tank” Davis vs. Ryan Garcia fight—and a heartfelt exchange about mentorship, legacy, and the importance of Black excellence and representation in media. Purpose of the Interview 1. To spotlight Brian Custer’s broadcasting journey He shares how childhood influences, mentors, and early opportunities shaped his journalism career. 2. To promote awareness about prostate cancer in men of color Custer uses his personal story to break stigmas surrounding screenings, early detection, and open discussion. 3. To inspire listeners to pursue their dreams despite obstacles He emphasizes resilience—from working overnight radio shifts to confronting a life-threatening diagnosis. 4. To highlight the impact of HBCUs and Black fraternities He explains how Hampton University and Kappa Alpha Psi shaped his identity and leadership. 5. To celebrate representation in sports media Custer honors trailblazers like Irv Cross, James Brown, and Carol Simpson, showing how visibility opened doors. Key Takeaways 1. Early exposure builds dreams Watching Walter Cronkite, Friday Night Videos, and Ted Koppel developed his passion for broadcasting.His grandmother’s nightly viewing rituals deeply influenced him. 2. Representation matters Seeing Irv Cross, James Brown, and Carol Simpson on television affirmed his ambition and provided powerful role models. 3. Hard work—not shortcuts—built his career Custer’s first job was midnight–8 a.m. radio, reading hourly newscasts.He later interned and volunteered long after programs ended to gain experience. 4. Prostate cancer is a silent but deadly threat His routine physical revealed a suspicious PSA level (5.4), leading to a biopsy and an aggressive cancer diagnosis.He initially refused repeat screenings due to stigma but credits his doctor’s persistence with saving his life. 5. Using his platform for good became a mandate His surgeon urged him to become an advocate for prostate cancer awareness—particularly for Black men, who are disproportionately affected. 6. Vulnerability creates connection Custer’s openness about fear, masculinity, and mortality mirrors Rushion’s own thyroid cancer journey, creating an intimate, healing conversation. 7. Career longevity requires authenticity and relationship-building Custer praises mentors like James Brown and the brotherhood of Black media professionals.He underscores the importance of connections—not shortcuts—in building a respected brand. Notable Quotes (All directly from the transcript.) [Brian Custer | Txt] On childhood dreams & representation “I knew what I wanted to do when I was five.” “Ted Koppel… the way he interviewed people… I was enthralled.” “Irv Cross was the guy… then it became James Brown for me.” On fraternity life “All I knew was Kappa Alpha Psi.” “The streets of heaven are crimson and cream.” On breaking into broadcasting “My first job… midnight to eight… delivering the newscast every hour.” “The news director said, ‘You certainly don’t look the way you sound.’” On prostate cancer “You got cancer. It’s aggressive.” “All I heard was cancer.” “My doctor said, ‘Use your platform… men of color need a young face like you.’” On stigma and survival “People stereotype what a cancer survivor looks like.” “Cancer doesn’t go away when you ignore it.” On sports and life (On Garcia vs. Tank Davis):“That liver shot… it was a business decision. He’s too pretty to get his face rearranged.” On brotherhood and mentorship “You’re a legend in this business.” “We’re brothers now… I’m lumping you in with my best friend.” #SHMS #STRAW #BESTSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Brian Custer. Summary of the Interview On Money Making Conversations Masterclass, Rushion McDonald interviews Brian Custer—Emmy Award–winning sportscaster, ESPN anchor, play-by-play commentator, cancer survivor, fashion enthusiast, and HBCU graduate of Hampton University. The discussion moves through Custer’s early life in Columbus, Ohio; the influence of Black media figures on his career; his journey from a childhood dreamer sitting beside his grandmother watching Walter Cronkite to becoming a nationally recognized sports broadcaster; and his path into fraternity life as a member of Kappa Alpha Psi. Custer describes how he discovered broadcasting at an early age, secured internships in high school, and worked grueling night shifts in radio before transitioning into television. But the most powerful portion of the interview is his emotional recounting of his battle with aggressive prostate cancer at age 42—a diagnosis he initially wanted to hide. He shares the moment his doctor insisted he use his platform to educate men of color about prostate cancer, a mission he now treats as a calling. The interview ends with sports talk—including commentary on the Gervonta “Tank” Davis vs. Ryan Garcia fight—and a heartfelt exchange about mentorship, legacy, and the importance of Black excellence and representation in media. Purpose of the Interview 1. To spotlight Brian Custer’s broadcasting journey He shares how childhood influences, mentors, and early opportunities shaped his journalism career. 2.

To highlight the impact of HBCUs and Black fraternities He explains how Hampton University and Kappa Alpha Psi shaped his identity and leadership. 5. To celebrate representation in sports media Custer honors trailblazers like Irv Cross, James Brown, and Carol Simpson, showing how visibility opened doors. Key Takeaways 1. Early exposure builds dreams Watching Walter Cronkite, Friday Night Videos, and Ted Koppel developed his passion for broadcasting.His grandmother’s nightly viewing rituals deeply influenced him. 2. Representation matters Seeing Irv Cross, James Brown, and Carol Simpson on television affirmed his ambition and provided powerful role models. 3. Hard work—not shortcuts—built his career Custer’s first job was midnight–8 a.m. radio, reading hourly newscasts.He later interned and volunteered long after programs ended to gain experience. 4. Prostate cancer is a silent but deadly threat His routine physical revealed a suspicious PSA level (5.4), leading to a biopsy and an aggressive cancer diagnosis.He initially refused repeat screenings due to stigma but credits his doctor’s persistence with saving his life. 5. Using his platform for good became a mandate His surgeon urged him to become an advocate for prostate cancer awareness—particularly for Black men, who are disproportionately affected. 6. Vulnerability creates connection Custer’s openness about fear, masculinity, and mortality mirrors Rushion’s own thyroid cancer journey, creating an intimate, healing conversation. 7. Career longevity requires authenticity and relationship-building Custer praises mentors like James Brown and the brotherhood of Black media professionals.He underscores the importance of connections—not shortcuts—in building a respected brand.

It doubts itself.This week's episode is for the daughters who didn't have a buffer. The ones who survived systems, not just people.

Your nervous system looking for proof.You didn't imagine how bad it was. And you're not the only one.Learn More: MayhemDaughters.com

What if spiritual growth isn't about belief, manifestation, or bypassing reality — but about understanding how reality actually works? In this episode of Why Isn't Everyone Doing This?, Emily sits down with Sarah Elkhaldy, mystic, teacher, and host of Mystery Teachings on Gaia, for a clear, rigorous conversation about free will, karma, destiny, and spiritual evolution. Sarah explains how ancient mystery teachings were designed to initiate real changes in consciousness, not to comfort or inspire. Together, they explore how free will operates between fate and karma, what sovereignty truly requires, and why responsibility is central to spiritual growth. This conversation bridges mysticism and natural law, offering a grounded framework for understanding evolution beyond spiritual aesthetics. They also discuss the concept of homo luminous, the next stage of human evolution, and why presence in the simplest moments can become a profound initiation when awareness is fully engaged. Throughout the episode, Emily and Sarah examine discernment, embodiment, and why not all spiritual paths lead to the same outcomes. This episode is for anyone who feels called to move beyond inspiration and into a deeper understanding of how consciousness evolves through choice, presence, and responsibility.
