Al McCree is a former fighter pilot who has flown 196 missions! He is an executive in the music business and has managed all kinds of talent. He's also worked with top business executives. We talk about the differences and similarities of combat flying and the competition of the music business and the challenges of changing hearts and minds in a business setting. Ironically Al thinks music can be a distraction at work, even though we see so many people with ear buds in all kinds of workplaces. I challenge Al a bit on his belief that DNA and genetics are important for success. We both reflect on the wonderful, developmental feedback we obtained at the Johnson O'Connor Research Foundation (and why he can play a musical instrument and I can't, authoritatively validated). We fondly recall Jeanne Robertson, a brilliant speaker and storyteller who, in a beauty contest, enthralled the judges with her “talent” of twirling an invisible baton, which she lit on fire and had it descend on the judges' heads. The role of luck is analyzed in any pursuit, and Al feels it's a stronger factor than might be realized. But what is luck, really? And before we end we discuss how to exemplify what will make your kids successful, especially if they've led a privileged life and may not have the parents' “hunger.”

[This encore presentation of my interview with Jeanne Robertson is in honor of the late Speaker & Huomrists passing. Prayers and condolences for all those who were close to her. ] An interview with a rock star - Jeanne Robertson! In July of 2017, I had a great time talking with Jeanne. We discuss a career that started in the late '60s and has carried her into the 2020s. You don't last that 58 years in show business unless you are jaw-dropping funny. Jeanne Robertson absolutely is! Jeanne arrived on my radar in 2015 when I heard her routines on Laugh USA (SiriusXM Satellite radio). I had never crossed paths with her at a comedy club and kept wondering “Where did this hilarious lady come from?” It turns out she comes from North Carolina and entered comedy through the speaking circuit. She's quick to tell you she is a humorist – not a stand-up comedian. But don't let that fool you. Her stories are full of laughs all the way to the huge surprise payoff. With over 344,000 YouTube Subscribers and over 100 MILLION views, Jeanne grew more popular than ever. After getting to know her for years through her routines, I finally got the chance to meet up with Jeanne at a session on humor at the National Speaker's Association conference in Orlando, FL. Jeanne Robertson Show Notes Specifically, we talk about: Connecting through the National Speakers Association Her upcoming show at the Ryman Auditorium Watching Carol Burnett live and getting to meet her Weaving a little audience participation into her shows Going from the Miss North Carolina Pageant to the speaking circuit Working in a message for her corporate audiences Embracing the internet and catapulting her career Getting help from Al McCree to go digital on iTunes The difference between being a speaker and a concert entertainer What to expect at a comedy club vs hearing a humorist Updating and improving material that continues to grow The origin of “Left Brain” stories based on her husband Jerry Giving the audience permission to laugh The process and steps she uses to develop stories The Genie Journal and how it helps accumulate stories How not talking about yourself can generate material And a whole lot more!

This is a different podcast than I normally shoot. This is a tribute to two wonderful people who left us recently, Ed Asner, the famous actor, and Jeanne Robertson, the humorist, professional speaker and dear friend of so many of us. They both touched my life and I wanted to share an important lesson I've learned from each that can help you. Rest in peace, you two wonderful people. I miss you but will remember you fondly all my life. Terry Brock

Today's woman grew to 6 ft 2 by the age of 13 and many believed being a basketball player would be her future. But fate had a different plan for her. She won Miss North Carolina and by the age of 19 had made over 500 speeches. A lifetime of speaking began to unfold. But her speaking wasn't like other professionals.  She played around with ways to entertain and came to realize that the real power in speaking was in sharing her personal stories from a woman's viewpoint.  And in these true stories she could help others laugh not only at her life journey but also at their own. As the decades flew by, she continuously kept her material fresh and relevant. And as a world class humorist and speaker, she continues today to brighten and uplift the lives of millions of people. It is my pleasure to introduce you to one of the World's Greatest Women - Jeanne Robertson.

Note: There is a stretch of music in the beginning of this podcast that seems to go on for a bit. This is because in the video there is a hand writing words that pop up on the screen with no audio translation. The words spell out the Wikipedia definition of St Nicholaus. So just sit tight and the words will start soon. Today Kelly interviews her friend, Santa Cliff, as they discuss the true meaning of the Christmas holiday through Cliff's eyes. Get your tissues out - this one has all the feels. These Courage Stories are special videos posted in addition to the Prides Hollow Story Series. The Prides Hollow series is about the stories of the people in that town. The Courage Stories are about YOU, Kelly's audience. Kelly collects your stories of ordinary people doing brave things. Because courage is contagious.

Stories that warm your heart like walking into a Cracker Barrel, or enjoying a good Hallmark movie. To stay in touch, become a patron of the show, or get your own key to the city!https://www.Patreon.com/kellyswansonPrides Hollow is full of southern stories that will amuse, entertain, and leave you with an inspirational message. In this first episode, Harriet, a color-between-the-lines kind of lady, does something that most people would have thought was crazy.You see, Harriet lives in the house down the road, with the grey shutters. She's worn her hair in the same tight bun for what seems like forever, and both her and her husband, Harold, always lived on the safe side of life. That all changed when Harold died. You would expect that the challenge from Old Man Withers would bypass Harriet completely. But these southern stories are full of people who take a chance. That’s part of what this inspirational message is about.When Harriet heard the mailman recite the challenge, her heart jumped up right away. She knew exactly what she would do if she was brave. She wanted to drive the Buick her and Harold owned. Only problem was, she had never learned to drive. That didn’t stop her. With her neighbor Noreen as her impromptu coach, the pair took Harold’s ashes and drove off in search of a place to scatter them.This is one of those southern stories that’s full of seemingly ordinary folks, whose actions end up surprising everyone. The story finishes with an inspirational message from Kelly, about the importance of doing something brave, even if it doesn't seem to make any sense.If you enjoyed this first episode, be sure to catch the next one, which will air in two weeks, on Wednesday 9pm EST. Kelly will be there to chat in the community thread!

Lisa's Adventure Club: Staycations (0:00:00)Welcome to Lisa's Adventure Club, where we help you find and create adventures both big and small to bring excitement into your life. Vacationing with friends to an amazing part of the world is a once-in-a-lifetime kind of adventure, but you don't always have the time or money for these big trips. You can have just as much fun by planning a “staycation” for your next weekend getaway. So on this week's adventure club, we want to help you have a weekend adventure—whether it be a girl's trip or a boys night out—as a tourist in your own city. These tips can also be applied to a new city that you are exploring. Today we have Amanda Norcross, lead editor of Family Vacation Critic to help us plan this week's adventure.  Winter Driving Tips (0:14:58)Driving in the winter can be dreadful, especially when there's snow or ice on the forecast. You have to defrost your car all the time, it's freezing, and sometimes you lose traction and slip and slide on the road. Across the country, we're all experiencing varying winter driving conditions, but there are a few things we can all do to stay safe and protect the environment. We asked Jim Motavalli to weigh in with some tips for safe and environmentally conscious winter driving. Jim is an author who focuses on environmental preservation, and cars, regularly contributing to University of Pennsylvania and NPR's Car Talk.  Chrysalis: Serving the Abused (0:34:54)The topic of domestic abuse hits close to home for many people with millions of cases reported each year. But something that brings hope to many in this situation is the number of people and organizations working tirelessly to end abuse in their communities. One of these organizations is Chrysalis, a non-profit based out of Arizona that offers numerous resources for those who are struggling in silence. Here to tell us how we can help in the fight to end domestic abuse and support victims is Katia Jones, a development leader at Chrysalis.  World of E-Sports (0:50:36)You've heard of college basketball, football, and volleyball teams. But what about college video game teams? Some universities are welcoming a new type of student athletes to their campuses as they've begun paying students in full-ride scholarships to compete on their professional video game teams... also known as E-sport teams. Here to tell us a little bit more about the world of E-sports is Logan Horton, former competitive e-sports player and current e-sport coach.  Marathons and Longevity (1:05:40)A lot of us feel like dying when we go on a run. And running a marathon? Inconceivable. But here's the irony, new research suggests that running a marathon can actually help you live longer. With a promise like that, we had to learn more about how we could train for this epic feat. Kate Carter is a 13-time marathon runner and journalist specializing in running. With her crazy levels of experience, we wanted to talk to her about how we too can run 26.2 miles.  Humorists (1:24:51)It's been said that laughing can help you live longer! Whether that's true or not, nothing feels better than letting out a big long belly laugh. Laughing can help you at many stages of your life: when you're feeling stressed, when you need healing, and when you're feeling happy. Today we are talking with Jeanne Robertson, an American humorist and motivational speaker.

Jeanne Robertson discusses how humor can help anyone navigate their life's struggles.

Amanda Norcross explains vacationing at home, Jim Motavalli teaches how to drive safely in winter, Katia Jones talks about her efforts to help the abused, Logan Horton discusses e-sports, Kate Carter explains the benefits of marathons, Jeanne Robertson talks about how humor can make a difference.

JEANNE ROBERTSON COMEDY WITH CLASS [EP. 148] Jeanne Robertson (one of my comedy favorites) joins us today! We discuss a career that started in late 60’s and has carried her into her mid seventies! You don’t last 54 years in show business unless you are jaw-dropping funny. Jeanne Robertson absolutely is! Jeanne appeared on my radar a dozen or so years ago when I heard her routines on Laugh USA (SiriusXM Satellite radio). I had never crossed paths with her at a comedy club and kept wondering “Where did this hilarious lady come from?” It turns out she comes from North Carolina and entered comedy through the speaking circuit. She’s quick to tell you she is a humorist – not a stand-up comedian. But don’t let that fool you. Her stories are full of laughs all the way to the huge, surprise payoff. With over 126,000 YouTube Subscribers and over 49 MILLION views Jeanne is more popular than ever. This episode of the School of Laughs podcast is brought to you by Patreon supporter Bishop Jeffrey D Donelson. Visit www.SchoolOfLaughs.com/Patreon to learn how you can support the show! After getting to know her for years through her routines, I finally got the chance to meet up with Jeanne in early July. We were both at a session on using humor at the National Speaker’s Association conference in Orlando, FL. It was then I knew I had to get her on the show. We talk about her COMEDY WITH CLASS Humor Competition (sign up HERE:  www.ComedyWithClass.com/competition) and a whole lot more. Specifically, we talk about: Connecting through the National Speakers Association Her upcoming show at the Ryman Auditorium Watching Carol Burnett live and getting to meet her Weaving a little audience participation into her shows Going from the Miss North Carolina Pageant to the speaking circuit Working in a message for her corporate audiences Embracing the internet and catapulting her career Getting help from Al McCree to go digital on iTunes The difference between being a speaker and a concert entertainer What to expect at a comedy club vs hearing a humorist Updating and improving material that continues to grow The origin of “Left Brain” stories based on her husband Jerry Giving the audience permission to laugh The process and steps she uses to develop stories The Genie Journal and how it helps accumulate stories How not talking about yourself can generate material www.ComedyWithClass.com/competition And a whole lot more!

Humorist and YouTube sensation Jeanne Robertson  has hit the road on her National “Looking for Humor” tour following the release of her DVD of the same name and live SiriusXM  “Blue Collar Radio” national broadcast. At 68 years young, this former Miss North Carolina stands tall at six-foot-two and has a personality, heart and sense of humor just as soaring.  For years, her witty speeches were mostly limited to conventions and meetings. But with the dawn of the digital age, the world became exposed to Robertson's infectious humor and before long, she went viral. "The thrill has always been constantly creating new material.  It keeps me fresh," says Robertson, who has been honored with every top award in professional speaking.   "Through SiriusXM and my national concert tours, I now get to tell my tales to a much wider audience."  Now with seven nationally released DVDs, three books, hundreds of hours on SiriusXM and more than 14 million YouTube hits, the demand for Robertson's family-friendly and engaging brand of humor has grown exponentially.
