Today Jean takes the reigns as host, welcoming author and playwright Gladys Matar to the show, discussing her book "Delaying Sunset: A Study of The Arab Woman's Mind." Gladys Matar grew up in an environment ideally suited for nurturing the growth ofher artistic and literary talents fron an early age. In Latakia, the city with the distinction of being the most important port of Syria, Ms. Matar attended Les Carmelites Catholic school from kindergarten through middle school, and then moved to the public school system following legislative changes that prohibited private religious schools. Later, she attended the foreign literature program at the University of Latakia, graduating in 1984 with a degree in French Literature. Ms. Matar has published ten books to date, with several more currently under production for future publication. She is a playwright and screenwriter, and regularly publishes articles on literary critique and world politics in a multitude of Arabic periodicals and reputable literary websites. She has been awarded and celebrated by many nationally and internationally distinguished cultural associations and organizations. Her time is dedicated to research, writing, translating and delivering lectures on current world affairs. She also produces works for others and is perhaps one of the few ghostwriters in the Arab World. www.gladysmatar.net

For this very special edition of The Backstage Pass Radio Program, we get together on a Sunday evening with our guest, the one and only "Oracle" of Fat Guy Across America history: Kat Orleans! We discuss the "new season" of Eric Hites' continuing saga of going nowhere... If you'd like to learn more about this story, Google "Fat Guy Across America Scam/Fraud" or "Fat Guy Across America Dr. Phil" to find out about how a man on a bike scammed nearly $30,000 from people to never lose a single pound. It's (unfortunately) one of many GoFundMe fraud stories, but we've been following this one for some time. We're revisiting this because when we last had Kat on, we unfortunately had numerous audio issues. Kat was such a popular guest that we had tons of requests to have her back on, so we're giving the listeners what they want: MORE KAT! :) We hope you'll join us for more Kat and more FGAA hijinks this Sunday, 12/4/16 at 6:00pm PST/ 9:00pm EST for this special edition episode!
