The Business of Bobbysoxers: Cultural Production in 1940s Frank Sinatra Fandom (Oxford University Press, 2024) by Dr. Katie Beisel Hollenbach reconsiders the story of American popular music, celebrity following, and fan behavior during World War II through close examination of “bobbysoxers.” Preserved in popular memory as primarily white, hysterical, teen girl devotees of Frank Sinatra clad in bobby socks and saddle shoes, these girls were accused of displaying inappropriate behavior and priorities in their obsessive pursuit of a crooning celebrity at a time of international crisis. Dr. Beisel Hollenbach peels back the stereotypes of girlhood idol adoration by documenting the intimate practices of wartime Sinatra fan clubs, revealing a new side of this familiar story in American history through the perspective of the bobbysoxer. In World War II America, fan clubs and organizations like Teen Canteens offered a haven for teenage girls to celebrate their enjoyment of popular culture while cultivating relationships with each other through media icons and the entertainment industry. Many of these organizations attempted to encourage diverse memberships, influenced in part by Frank Sinatra's public work on racial and religious tolerance, and by Sinatra's own identity as an Italian American. Away from the critical public eye, these communities offered girls a place to safely explore and discuss issues including civil rights, politics, the war, patriotism, internationalism, and professional development in the context of their shared Sinatra fandom. With these broader social and political complexities in mind, The Business of Bobbysoxers shines a light on musical fan communities that provided teenage girls with peer groups at a critical moment of personal and historical change, allowing them to creatively express their desires and imagine their futures as American women together. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose new book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

In this conversation, Eric Malzone, Sam Hollenbach, and Steven Webster discuss the emerging concept of the 'industrial athlete'—workers in physically demanding jobs who require fitness and conditioning to perform effectively. They explore the challenges these workers face, particularly musculoskeletal injuries, and how AMP Health is addressing these issues through technology and tailored fitness programs. The discussion also touches on motivation, engagement strategies, and the potential for community involvement in promoting workplace wellness.

*Please note: Today's episode has a content warning for mental health and self-harm discussions. We hope this content will inspire you to practice self-compassion and share your story because you are not alone. For resources, please see our episode show notes. David Hollenbach has walked through the fire. Now, he helps others fan the flames of their own self-compassion and rise from the ashes of their limiting beliefs. David Hollenbach is a retired Fire Department Battalion Chief, an international best-selling author, professional speaker, member of the National Speakers Association, John Maxwell certified speaker and DISC Method Trainer. His most recent book, Fireproof: Your Grand Strategy for Transforming Failure into Fuel for Your Future was released in 2022. David owns and operates David Hollenbach Consulting, LLC and hosts the popular podcast From Embers to Excellence - with over 170+ episodes featuring inspiring guest speakers. His brand was built on the foundation of helping others, speaking up and creating a legacy of good. Additionally, David is a Veteran of the United States Navy with a Master's Degree in Public Administration from Barry University. A major focus of research for his capstone was how strong, positive leadership can influence the culture of a large organization. While studying at Barry University he published "The Firefighter's Creed" and “Women in the Fire Service: A Diverse Culture Leads to a Successful Culture,” an article highlighting the importance of gender diversity within the fire service in Fire Engineering Magazine. He has spent years as an instructor, coach and mentor helping others define and realize their personal goals. There is strength in adversity David Hollenbach had read about trauma and studied philosophy. But during his time in the fire service, he experienced it for the first time - and it nearly broke him. Like many who work in emotionally difficult careers, David saw horrific things during his time in the fire department. He struggled with Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and even considered taking his own life. In this deeply moving episode of The Business of You, David authentically shares his personal story with us, reminding us that we are not alone. During the depths of his despair, David reached inside himself and found a spark - committing fully to his own healing, no matter what. He began to do meaningful and consistent work on his emotional and mental health. Now, he encourages other veterans and service members to do the same, paving a path for them to speak up and talk about their experiences. Breaking the code of silence, David reminds us that our value is found not just in what we do, but in who we are… and our intrinsic self-worth. Uncover your core values As a coach and mentor, David Hollenbach helps leaders create a grand strategy for their lives. He believes strongly that without direction, we will never arrive where we want to go, or become the person we're meant to be. This begins with discovering your core values. Through his coaching and speaking services, David helps others create a roadmap for their lives. Despite their failures, regardless of where they are, he teaches others to rediscover their passion for life and reconnect with the best parts of themselves. Forging a better future When David was working on himself, he finally discovered a term that he had been seeking to define for years: Emotional intelligence. Studying emotional intelligence, he noticed that women consistently received much higher emotional intelligence scores than men. That explained why the fire service, notoriously lacking women, was an industry with room for improvement in emotional intelligence and communication. But it also explained why women weren't joining the fire service - and certainly weren't being retained. Even when women become firefighters, they frequently leave for careers in which their emotional intelligence, skills and abilities are more highly valued. Now, David writes and speaks about opportunities for better gender equality in service careers, and what that could mean for improving outcomes. Quotes “I really try to help veterans and first responders with PTSD. I had my own struggles.” “People who spend their adult life who spend their adult life in fields like combat, law enforcement, EMS, and the fire department - you end up seeing horrible things. If you don't deal with and process that, it can fester and lead to PTSD.” “I went to a really dark place. I hadn't accepted that I was as bad as I was. It wasn't until I almost took my own life, in the moments and days after that experience, that I committed to myself that I would do everything that I could to heal and become the person I knew I could become - someone my daughter could be proud of.” “I felt like - nobody's gonna read this. Who am I to write a book? I came very close to deleting the entire thing. Then I realized that sharing the lessons I learned could help somebody avoid taking their own life.” “Ultimately, I believe that we're all seeking the same thing: Happiness, a sense of fulfillment - and one of the purest forms of fulfillment comes from helping others succeed. If you can, find your purpose helping others succeed by doing the things you're gifted at.” “The fire service is lagging behind even every male-dominated industry in the United States. Paid firefighters - in 2010, the workforce was 3.7% female, and other occupations that were similar had 17% females or higher. Ten years later in the 2020 census, they achieved success in bringing it up to 4.7%. The work needs to be done on the culture so that it's more inclusive.” “While the fire service is hiring more women, they're not retaining them. Most women may do 6-10 years but ultimately they'll leave for a career where their skills and experience are valued to a higher degree. You can't fault anybody for that!” Links mentioned in this episode: Visit David Hollenbach's website at https://hollenbachleadership.com/ Follow Hollenbach Leadership on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/hollenbachleadership Connect with David Hollenbach on LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/in/dave-hollenbach-author-speaker/ Find David on Twitter at https://twitter.com/HollenbachLEAD Listen to the Hollenbach Leadership podcast at https://hollenbachleadership.com/from-embers-to-excellence-podcast If you or someone you love are considering self-harm or you find yourself struggling with your mental health, you are loved - and you are never alone.
