Dave Lieber is intrigued when he receives an invitation to attend a real estate seminar hosted by Tarek and Christina of hit HGTV show Flip or Flop. The event is packed with fans and hopeful real estate flippers, but instead of meeting their favorite stars, attendees sit through a pitch for get-rich-quick seminars costing thousands. Dave, a journalist for the Dallas Morning News, is so shocked at what he sees, he investigates further, uncovering a slew of unethical practices by Zurixx LLC, the seminar company, that ultimately attracts the notice of the Federal Trade Commission.

Dave moved to the NY metro area from Wisconsin to work building sets for the stage and television. He loved working with his hands to create set pieces but when Covid hit, his work shut down and he had to come up with a Plan B. He relocated to Sullivan County, NY and opened a small food stand in his backyard. At the stand, he and his partner Jin sell seasoned grilled meat skewers and not much else. It's simple, delicious, and it seems to be a great idea for Dave and his family.

This episode's guest is Dave Lieber who is “The Watchdog” columnist at The Dallas Morning News. He is also on a mission to bring back to life a forgotten historical figure of North Texas – Amon G. Carter – who owned the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, WBAP-AM and what’s now NBC 5. Carter is credited with bringing a trillion dollars worth of businesses to North Texas. Dave’s eighth book is called "AMON! The Ultimate Texan." He’s also written a play of the same name that was performed before more than a dozen sellout audiences at Artisan Center Theater in Hurst in May 2019. I got the chance to see the play following our sit down interview and this trip through history was amazing! Seeing actor Kelvin Dilks portray such a larger than life person in the flesh was a roller coaster of highs filled with big bravado and laughs and the touching, sad lows that made you feel his personal tragedies. If you have lived, worked, dreamed, or played in Fort Worth, I highly recommend you see the play! Catch it if you can at the Artisan Center Theater! For tickets, visit www.artisanct.com. During our conversation, I got to sit behind the desk on the set as in between performances as we discuss his new play, the death of journalism, and so much more on episode number 45, of the Avert Your Eyes Podcast!

Dave Lieber, Certified Speaking Professional (CSP) is unique. He is an amazing writer and journalist. He is the watchdog for consumer rights issues at the Dallas Morning News. He’s co-founder of Summer Santa, one of North Texas’ largest children’s charities. He also is an amazing long jumper. Well, now, he like meek is a short jumper. He has lived 100 lives since moving to Dallas, TX from the East Coast. He tried to make an impression on his new neighbors and failed miserably. In Texas, to establish relationships, there are at least two questions asked of everyone who passes by. Dave was asked: Texan: "Son, you ain't from around here are you? Where you from?" Dave replied, "No Sir, East Coast." Texan: "Yea, a Yankee huh? Well, what church do you attend?" Dave: "Uhm, I'm Jewish, I don't attend church." Two strikes. But he turned it around in the 9th inning of the ball game and hit a grand slam to get back on top. How did he overcome the odds? Well, he shares that and more in this edition of "Life's New Normal." John Register, Paralympic Silver Medalist | Inspirational Catalyst| Change Management Speaker | Author | Long Jump Record Holder | Gulf War Vet | Disability Rights Advocate | and Home-made Funnel Cake Lover. Shows business leaders how to hurdle adversity and create life’s new normal.
