Today on Too Opinionated we visit with Television historian, archivist and podcast pioneer Stu Shostack!  Award-winning filmmaker CJ Wallis' latest documentary STU'S SHOW, chronicling the relationship between legendary actress Lucille Ball and TV historian Stu Shostak, premieres on digital May 2, 2022 from Upstream Flix. The story of TV historian and archivist Stu Shostak, the documentary features screen-legends Tony Dow (“Leave it to Beaver”), Michael Cole ("The Mod Squad"), the late Ed Asner (“Lou Grant”), Butch Patrick (“The Munsters”), Academy Award Winner Margaret O'Brien, Geri Jewell and many, many more. Shostak got his start handing out tickets to Norman Lear sitcom tapings to people in Hollywood and parlayed that into doing audience warm-ups prior to tapings for shows such as “All In The Family” and “One Day At A Time”. The film also indirectly tells the story of television legend Lucille Ball who, contrast to popular belief, was an extremely kind and generous person who treated those around her like family. Ball is hired to hold Q&A's at a Los Angeles based College which provides a window of opportunity that alters the course of Stu's life. Shostak's encyclopedic knowledge of Ball's career earns his way into becoming an essential part of her small inner circle as her archivist and assistant to her husband Gary Morton. After Ball passes away, Shostak pioneers what we know now as “podcasting”, hosting internet shows interviewing celebrity cast and crew of the golden age of television. He also co-produces the widely successful LOVING LUCY conventions which welcomed prior cast, crew and superfans from around the world to come together for a few days to celebrate their love of I Love Lucy. At one of these Loving Lucy conventions Stu meets Jeanine Kasun, a music teacher and Lucy super-fan, who noticed Shostak hosting game shows, events and trivia contests. The two speak on the phone at length and eventually begin dating until Jeanine suffers a brain aneurysm and the two, alongside the legends of television, enter into a war with the medical industry to keep her alive. STU'S SHOW will be available on major digital platforms May 2. Want to Preorder: https://itunes.apple.com/us/movie/stus-show/id1620465541 Want to Watch: YouTube Meisterkhan Pod (Please Subscribe)

This week we will be speaking to the pubs surviving lockdown by sitting down with Jen Dalby, landlady at the Hand in Hand in Brighton and Angela and Gary Morton from the Hail to Ale pub in Wolverhampton. You can learn about CART - the Campaign for Real Takehome in 1984 and a review of supermarket brews from 1975. We also have a new recipe from Sue Nowak of beer baked bramleys available at What's Brewing and below: https://wb.camra.org.uk/2020/06/22/beer-recipe-beer-baked-bramleys/You can discover more by joining the campaign for just £26.50/year - visit https://join.camra.org.uk/Beer Baked BramleysEVERY Monday lunchtime, regular as clockwork, a smiley bloke wheels a trolley up our path bringing our weekly shop. This is an entirely alien concept for me. I like to shop haphazardly, choosing what’s in season, what’s BOGOF, what’s half price due to sell by date. I love delis, farmers’ markets, the old-fashioned butchers and bakers in Tavistock, the wet fish shop getting its catch direct from a Plymouth trawler. The sort of shopping many of you probably enjoy too, especially if it includes a pub stop for a pint and a pasty, perhaps a game of dominoes. Do you miss pub games? (Incidentally, my brother and I have invented a brilliant game to while away lockdown: we call it Best Films Ever Poker. So, I e-mail him: “I’ll see your On the Waterfront and raise you Gone with the Wind…” But I digress. I’m indebted to the Tesco deliverers, the more so because we don’t live near one of the stores and I don’t actually know where these guys come from. Ordering online is, er, interesting. On the whole they do a great job though we get the odd surprise. My request for a Savoy cabbage was met with frozen shredded; this is not a successful product. I wanted a few leeks and, boy, did I get ’em – three monsters that would have won giant leek at any horticultural show. On the other hand I asked for root ginger (fiddly to peel and chop), and instead received a fragrant little jar of their Crushed Ginger, ready to use. Tesco’s Chief Executive must have been up half the night making that; cheers, sir, I won’t forget. Speaking of my brother, he’s their biggest fan. He shops there so much his Tesco points apparently pay most of the cost of his annual French leave in a gite. (Not this year, Little Bro, you’ll have to drive a camper van to a Tesco carpark near the sea.) Last week I put mincemeat on the list thinking I’d make a nice shepherd’s pie or chilli; lo and behold I received a jar of mincemeat as in mince pies. Was I bovvered? Nah. I’ve run out of dried fruit so I’ll use it to stuff baked apples with a liberal slurp of dark spicy ale – as it happens I’ve got McEwan’s Champion, a big, fruity number (7.3% ABV), winner of a national Tesco beer challenge I helped judge many moons ago, hence the name. Every little helps.Beer-baked BramleysOne cooking apple per person; mixed dried fruit (or mincemeat); a few chopped, stoneless dates and walnut halves (if you’ve got any); dark spicy ale; a little soft brown sugar.Put dried fruit (or mincemeat) in a bowl with dates, if used, add enough ale to cover, and marinate overnight; drain retained liquor. Core apples and cut a line round middle of each with a sharp knife. Stir a little brown sugar into fruit mix and use to stuff the apples; place in an ovenproof dish and pour over retained liquor, scattering any leftover filling mix around. Bake in the centre of a hot oven (200C/gas mark 6) for around 45 to 60 minutes, until the apple puffs up to soufflé softness, the caramelising ale creating a toffee apple effect. Pop a walnut half where the apple stalk was, and serve with thick yellow cream. Cheers – and bon appétit!Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/pubspintspeople.

In this episode of The Mental Health Revolution Kate joins Gary who is one of Kate’s old friends and unofficial mentor to discuss how Gary stays positive regardless of his past and how it may have affected him. KEY TAKEAWAYS  People tend to hold onto things from their past to use as an excuse to not move forward. Staying positive and being a successful businessman has been very incremental and certainly hasn’t been an instant thing. Gary explains that marrying a good woman is crucial and it’s helped him learn crucial lessons alongside being the stable influence behind any of the success that they’ve had. For Gary his motivation has never been about the money, it’s always been about winning, being successful and having a good strong harmonious team. You’re never going to always win every deal so there’s no benefit or mileage by boiling the person that’s lost the deal out. But ensure you learn from it for the next time. People want, like and appreciate consistency. Social media often gives people that constancy through likes. However, a lot of younger people often now don’t see what is going on in the real world, which has fed the strong need to have success but not put in the work. BEST MOMENTS ‘Who motivates the motivator?’ ‘By being incremental you’re more able to keep your feet on the ground and it’s more sustainable.’ ‘Some people take opportunity and others are unable to see it’ ‘The by-product of success is generally happiness or financial gain’ ‘Great teams recognise that not everyone can be great everyday’ VALUABLE RESOURCES  You can find out about Gary’s charity GM Fundraising through the website https://www.gmfundraising.co.uk/ ABOUT THE HOST  Kate Ashley-Norman is creator of Positive Mind Management, the host of The Mental Health Revolution podcast, and a passionate speaker and trainer about our emotional wellbeing. She is seeking to change the nature and tone of the conversation around mental health for business owners, their workplaces and ultimately in their personal lives. Kate has spent the last 25+ years running her own businesses, initially working running a six figure PR consultancy agency, then building a multi-million pound international property portfolio. Latterly she has dedicated her time to studying emotional mastery and positive psychology, while bringing up four children, and has used her experience and knowledge to create the Positive Mind Management programme specifically for entrepreneurs and small businesses. The knowledge Kate has collated will help you to not only better understand your emotions, it will help you both improve it, and supercharge it during those more challenging times when emotional wellbeing can be compromised. Fear, procrastination, overwhelm, powerlessness, self worth – empire building is a hugely challenging process in its own right. The more power you hold within your own emotions, the more you can harness the power of those emotions, good and bad, to the benefit of your business and life in general. Hugely practical and applicable, this revolutionary approach to mental health is putting the power back into the hands of each and every individual.

Selling is both an art and a science. To be great at it is much more than just being a good talker, or being persuasive or having impeccable product knowledge. There is planning and strategy and practice that must be undertaken to become truly exceptional at sales. Our very special guest on this session of Sales Chalk Talk is Gary Morton. Gary is a West Point graduate. As a tank commander, he was part of the maneuver task force that won every battle in which they engaged at the grueling U.S. Army National Training Center. Nobody was supposed to be able to do that, but Gary’s unit did. Then he worked for the Stryker Corporation, a company that increased its earnings by at least 20% every quarter for 28 years! Now he’s an author with a new book titled Commanding Excellence: Inspiring Purpose, Passion, and Ingenuity through Leadership That Matters. On this show, you’ll hear: • How sales teams are similar to combat-ready military teams • How “racking and stacking” improves sales performance • How to skate to where the puck is going, not where it’s already been • And MUCH more! When you join my awesome cohost, Murphy Alafoginis and me, you’ll be absolutely fascinated, as we were, by Gary and his ideas about the strategic aspects of the sales process. What you learn on this session will absolutely impact your sales team in a very powerful way! Gary is an incredibly great strategist! Gary’s website is http://igarymorton.com
