Imagine being around someone who instantly puts you at ease because of their calm presence. That's how I feel about the woman who is my guest this week. Lisa Rigau is the owner of Healthy Lifestyle Management, a friend, my podcast sponsor, and an experienced and knowledgeable wellness practitioner.As Lisa prepares to offer her Fall Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction course, we talk this week about what you can learn from it like awareness of habit patterns, being able to hit the pause button before reacting and making the same choices over and over, and being gentle with ourselves and others as we live a life using the practice of mindfulness. I share why I took Lisa's 8-week mindfulness based stress reduction course in the Spring and what it taught me about myself. Lisa is a registered nurse, nutrition counselor, and community educator of health, wellness, mindfulness, and nutrition. She received her Bachelor of Science in Nursing from the University of Delaware. Lisa received her Master's degree from Marywood University in Sports Nutrition and Exercise Science.

If you're a fan of comedy, especially stand-up comedy, thisweek's conversation will be music--or should I say laughter-- to your ears.This week I'm talking with Lynn Harris, founder and CEO of GOLD Comedy, who has dedicated her long career to fusing the power of comedy with creativity, inclusivity, and social change. She says, "I believe that comedy is power, because when you make people laugh, you make people listen."Harris, who has been performing stand-up since the 90's,shares her thoughts on how it has changed through the years; what topics are too taboo to joke about (if that's even a thing); how powerful comedy and pop culture can be to effect real culture change; and she tells me why Robby Hoffman and Maria Bamford are among some of her favorite comedians. GOLD Comedy is a comedy school, professional network, andcontent studio where women, non-binary creators, and other “others" build their comedy careers, join a powerful community, and make funny stuff that gets seen on stages and screens.

In October 1991, a pickup truck crashed through the front window of a Luby's Cafeteria in Killeen, Texas. What followed was one of the deadliest mass shootings in American history (at the time). In this episode, I examine the events of that tragic day, the victims whose lives were forever changed, and the lasting impact the massacre had on discussions surrounding public safety, concealed carry laws, and mass violence in the United States. This episode was previously released as a Patreon-exclusive bonus episode and is being shared with all listeners this week.

Five Thursdays in a month means what I call an "extra" episode of my show. In July, it's time for "Just Jeannine" when I process my feelings (nice way of saying vent) about some things that concern me. On the bright side, I also share some positive news. Remember, it's okay to feel your feelings. If you'd rather not hear what's bugging me (the patriarchy mostly), tune back in the first week of August to hear my incredible conversation with Lynn Harris of Gold Comedy.

Do you have a ritual that helps you to feel grounded? Calmer...when life becomes overwhelming?This summer I have been walking barefoot in the backyard first thing in the morning to feel the dew on the souls of my feet (although it's not easy with the callouses). My guest this week, Scranton business owner Sonya Dixon, created a mindfulness practice for herself after the loss of three loved ones that led to her passion and purpose. After the loss of her mother at the rather young age of 27, Sonya began lighting candles and saying prayers. When she lost her grandfather and father within the following year, she realized that lighting a candle at the end of her day had become a healthy and intentional act to help her amid her grief. Now, more than 25 years later, Sonya is helping others activate their senses through her business Dixon Candle and Bath.Check out all of the delightful fragrances of candles, sprays and sachets at Dixon Candle and Bath here.I owe a huge thank you to my weekly podcast sponsors Reinvented Threads with Gabby Lynn and Healthy Lifestyle Management with Lisa Rigau.

Jeff Urso slides back into the chair at Duffer's fresh off opening Hatricks in Mundelein right as the insane July heatwave hit. Half the AC working, belts snapping, fresh air intake fighting for its life — and he still got the place dialed in while running the kitchen and learning new wing tricks from his own chef.From bar ownership war stories (400-degree pizza ovens in 2010, ice makers holding up, bodies pumping out more heat than the equipment) the conversation rolls into what's actually happening in Lake Forest right now: the caucus interviewing mayoral hopefuls, the Block the Box fallout still costing the city, Jed Morris recusal drama, and whether anyone can run without splitting the vote.From there it's everywhere: Lake Forest Day parade route changes, the American Legion endowment debate, craft beer dying while big boys and infusions take over, fantasy football drafts on slow nights, Vegas stadium vibes, and why politicians sound different depending on who's in the room.So is the mayoral field already locked in with two caucus candidates?Will Lake Forest Day finally move to the weekend or stay mid-week for the bars?And who's actually paying attention to the charter, the pensions, and the block parties?We document. You decide.
All aboard for a fun conversation with Scranton historian Julie Esty. NEPA is lucky to have my friend Julie, who is an enthusiastic history buff and force behind the annual The Dunmore Cemetery Tour that features the talented Dearly Departed Players performing individual vignettes that deliver monologues with humor and heart to audiences each year.Tune in for this fun conversation in which Julie talks about her recent train excursions educating local elementary students, her most recent book that is a collection of her monthly biographical stories published in The Dunmorean and what's in store for visitors to this year's Dunmore Cemetery Tour. Follow The Dunmore Cemetery Tour page on Facebook to stay informed and to reach out to Julie for a copy of any of her books.

Welcome back to The Treehouse Show, the comedy podcast where weird news, pop culture, and life's dumbest questions collide.This episode starts with an important debate: How do you know if you've finally grown up... or if you're just having a mid-life crisis? Trey opens up about life after alcoholism, how sobriety has completely changed his outlook, and why he's suddenly developing an obsession with houseplants. Is this emotional maturity, or is he just one step away from eating dinner at Luby's before sunset?We also celebrate today's celebrity birthdays, which somehow turns into a confession about iconic TV shows we've never watched—including Lost. Are we missing out, or was everyone else just confused for six seasons?Then we dive into one of Reddit's most unintentionally hilarious relationship posts. A woman says her husband cheated, but the very first sentence of her story may explain exactly why. Sometimes the biggest clue is hiding in plain sight.Finally, we wrap things up with one of the strangest medical stories we've seen in a while—a man ends up with a burning penis, and surprisingly, STDs had absolutely nothing to do with it.If you enjoy funny news, Reddit drama, pop culture, celebrity discussions, and two lifelong friends making fun of everything, you've found your people.
On October 16, 1991, a gunman drove his truck through the front window of Luby's Cafeteria in Killeen, Texas, and opened fire on the people inside. By the time it ended, 23 people had been murdered and dozens more wounded, making it the deadliest mass shooting in modern American history at the time. This is the complete story of the Luby's Cafeteria massacre, the victims, the survivors, and the lasting impact it had on Texas.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/outlaws-gunslingers--4737234/support.Subscribe to our YouTube! https://www.youtube.com/@outlawsandgunslingers
The path to today's guest has been an informative and enlightening one. What started as a search for one documentary on drink spiking by former guest Shirah Benarde's brand NightCap, led to the discovery of another powerful documentary about a sexual assault survivor called Lough Enough Surviving Justice. That led to two wonderful podcast conversations and a screening of the documentary in Scranton with a Q and A afterward with the film's director Hilary Klotz Steinman and an eye-opening conversation with Sabrina Hannon of WRC (another former guest on the show). Hilary's film is distributed by Women Make Movies, a nonprofit that for more than 45 years, has championed women filmmakers and their stories. WMM is the largest distributor of films by and about women in the world. When Hilary suggested I have WMM's Executive Director Debra Zimmerman as a guest, I jumped at the opportunity. Once Debra returned home from her internal travel to various film festivals, we recorded this week's incredible conversation about the importance of women standing up for other women, the compelling stories being told because of the work done by Women Make Movies, the pitfalls of imposter syndrome, and much more. Learn about films offered through Women Make Movies and their program to help women filmmakers at their website.

As we approach the 4th of July weekend, you might be looking forward to plans made with friends or family or you might be fondly thinking of memories from your childhood. I'm smiling as I remember the excitement my brother and I felt when we watched my Dad light a few bottle rockets or a good ole fashioned fire cracker in apples that fell from the tree.These days, I'm happy to watch professional fireworks displays from a distance and ooooh and ahhhh over the bursts of color.In this week's episode I'm having a casual chat--the kind you might have with a friend at a coffee shop--with my pal Pittsburgh-based comedian, mental health speaker, and children's performer Gab Bonesso. A regular on the show, Gab chats with me about everything from her thoughts on the great American experiment, the joy she gets from performing for children, what she believes happens in the after life, why she's pivoting from stand-up comedy and a bit of pop culture talk. Check out more on Gab here. A BIG thank you goes out to my weekly podcast sponsors Reinvented Threads with Gabby Lynn and Healthy Lifestyle Management with Lisa Rigau.

This week's episode was recorded on a rainy Monday and thatwas just fine by me. I like a rainy day. I feel like expectations are lower and I'm in a cozy state of mind. My guest agrees that rainy days can be great because we might otherwise not get a chance to see salamanders. This week I'm chatting with Conservation Advocate, Community Connector and Environmental Steward RachaelStark of the Pennsylvania Environmental Council about earthy goodness. We talk about her accomplishment of visiting all 63 U.S. National Parks that are spread across 30 states and two U.S. territories before her 30th birthday; how she stayshopeful for the future; and why it's good for women to feel empowered to head out on soloadventures.

As my guest this week puts it, people are becoming more "death curious" these days. Nicole Kidman is training to be a death doula after she was affected by her mother's death in 2024.I admit that my curiosity has been sparked by the death of my father just a month ago, which led me to seek out my guest this week: Helen Dunkle of Pinnacle Doula Services. Helen and I have a tender conversation about my family's experience guiding my father's care and handling end-of-life moments; Helen explains the role of the death doula (aka end-of-life doula) and her experience losing her father to the same illness my father had. We also explore the idea of medical assistance in dying and signs from loved ones after they have passed away. I believe this conversation can benefit just about everyone. Learn more about Helen's services at Pinnacle's website. Share your thoughts about this conversation with Funny Wine Girl Jeannine on Facebook or Instagram.

I picked up the kids in my husband's car the other day. The youngest said something. The next one waited until they finished, then said something back. There was a pause. I turned around and looked at three kids not even fighting and thought, is this how pickup goes? In my car, it's on the second they get in. Someone's interrupting, someone's yelling, I'm turning the music up to drown them out, ready to throw myself onto the driveway while it's moving. Same kids. Same school.

After one week off, Uncorked with Funny Wine Girl is back. I'm kicking off June with an incredible conversation this week with Shay Jones Vitale who helps people connect with their body, feel their feelings and reflect on the experience. She is also helping to educate and train on the importance of mental health for job seekers and companies who hire. Shay and I discuss what many (if not most) people are experiencing these days: a dysregulated nervous system. We take in so much stimuli--through social media, emails, other media, life's everyday stressors, etc.--that can cause our body to be stuck in high alert mode, lead to exhaustion and/or feeling so overwhelmed that we shutdown or completely withdraw. We also cover topics like toxic positivity and my thoughts on the popular Mel Robbins' "Let Them" theory. Tune in to a conversation that I believe many of you can relate to and please share share thoughts with Funny Wine Girl Jeannine on Facebook or Instagram.

Given that May is Bladder Cancer Awareness Month and that my father Joe Luby just passed on May 13, I wanted to have an open and honest conversation about the loss of a parent and how we grieve.Oliver (or Ollie as I call him) has been my dear friend since our years at Bishop Hannan High School. Since that time I had the pleasure of getting to know his mother Christine (Chrissy) Ord who had a laugh that could shake the walls. I loved her. She died six years ago in April from bladder cancer. My father Joseph (Joe) Luby died on May 13 after an 11-month battle with mesothelioma (cancer in his pleural lining) that is caused by exposure to asbestos. Read his obituary I wrote, here. I wanted to sit down with my dear friend Ollie to chat about the cancer journey that our parents were on and how we're handling the loss--mine being fresh at this time. We both hope that our conversation will lead you to feel comfortable talking with someone about any grief you're experiencing and/or have a conversation about death because it's not as scary as it's made out to be. And please don't be afraid to season that conversation liberally with humor!I share heartfelt gratitude with my podcast sponsors Reinvented Threads with Gabby Lynn and Lisa Rigau of Healthy Lifestyle Management.

Legacy and Historical Context • Old Dominion dominated women's basketball through strong administrative support and Marianne Stanley's competitive vision brought from Immaculata's dynasty era • ODU won 2 AIAW championships with players like Anne Donovan, Amos, and Nancy Lieberman, establishing the program as a national powerhouse • The NCAA filed a lawsuit against Title IX implementation, creating animosity that persists today—NCAA still doesn't recognize AIAW championships • UCLA's Corey Close corrected announcers this year, insisting their 2024 title was their second national championship, not first • ODU served as the bridge passing the torch to Tennessee after Marianne Stanley left to start over at USC, then eventually to UConn
It can be easy to judge others when we are unaware of their story and when we stop looking through the lenses of kindness and empathy. My guest this week, Tara Gallucci, has felt her share of judgement and she'll tell you herself that much of it was deserved at the time. She was raised in gang culture that left its mark on her life the same as it had her other family members. But after falling down a number of times and serving time in jail, Tara is clean and sober, back on her feet and ready to help pick other women up through her nonprofit program the Still I Rise Empowerment Initiative. Give this week's conversation a listen--with an empathetic ear. Donate here to the Still I Rise Empowerment Initiative. Watch for an upcoming event in Scranton on July 11 in Nay Aug Park.

Each day is filled with noise. We have messages coming at us from every direction. But do we take time to connect with each other, connect with nature and connect with ourselves? Probably not enough.

Meet the women of Embodied Women's Wellness Experience, a retreat being held on June 20 in northeast PA.

Happy Earth Day 2026!I had to share this week's podcast a day early in celebration of Earth Day and my wonderful guest: my friend, podcast sponsor, and sister in sustainability Gabby Lynn of Reinvented Threads!Gabby and I discuss that the goal of sustainability isn't perfection; it's making a difference one small act at a time. For Gabby, that often means taking her husband Tom's beer bottle out of the trash and putting it into the recycle bin. But Gabby contributes much more than that. As a maker and the creator of the business Reinvented Threads, she gives new life to what was someone's cashmere sweater, leather jacket, cross stitch work, pillow, tea towel, and so on, to tell a story with each stitch. Be sure to follow Reinvented Threads on Facebook and Instagram to get a glimpse of some of the one-of-a-kind reinventions Gabby creates. And check out the upcoming events list at Reinvented Threads.com to see where you can find Reinvented Threads vending this spring, summer, fall and holiday shopping season. If you're in the Lehigh Valley area, be sure to check out Gabby this weekend at the Wicked Plant Fest at Steelstacks in Bethlehem or create special memories with Mom this Mother's Day weekend at the Bethlehem Fine Art and Craft Show.Thank you to Gabby Lynn for supporting me with her sponsorship of this podcast!

There are some people who you just connect with--no matter how long you know them or how you met. Gab Bonesso, comedian, mental health speaker, and children's performer, is one of those people for me. Ever since we met online 5 years ago, we've been able to talk--and talk and talk--about pretty much anything, which is why our conversations tend to go well over 1 hour. With that in mind, I've broken our conversation into two parts. This week we're talking about what I'll call the art of humanity: the fact that every person has a gift to share; there is art in everything.Gab and I also talk about some of our favorite comedians and Gab's performances in Pittsburgh and beyond. The other half of our conversation will be aired in May, which is Mental Health Awareness Month, because we touched upon many life stressors to our mental health and the importance of loving every part of ourself rather than judging or self-loathing. Learn more about the fabulous Gab Bonesso by clicking here.

As I celebrate five years of incredible conversations with fabulous women on this show, I'm eager to deliver more valuable content and experiences to my audience. One such event that I am so heartened to co-host with the Women in Philanthropy of the Scranton Area Community Foundation is a film screening on April 13 in Scranton.Thanks to my partnership with Women in Philanthropy, we will co-host a screening of Loud Enough--Surviving Justice, a documentary about one young woman's fight or justice after a sexual assault, followed by a conversation with the film's director and Sabrina Hannon from WRC. The event being held at the Scranton Area Community Foundation, at 612 Jefferson Ave. in Scranton is free to attend but registration is appreciated here.In anticipation of Monday night's film screening, this week's episode of the podcast features an edited version of the conversation I had in October with Hilary Klotz Steinman, the director of Loud Enough--Surviving Justice, former prosecutor and founder of Finding the Right Julie Germann, and former police officer turned trainer & consultant Justin Boardman who were both involved in the documentary. I'm sharing what I consider to be some of the highlights of our conversation about how victims are treated by law enforcement and the justice system and what Julie and Justin are doing to change that for the better through their education on the effects of trauma. Give this conversation a listen and I hope to see you on Monday, April 13 in Scranton. If you are interested in finding out how you can have your own screening of the documentary Loud Enough Surviving Justice, visit Women Make Movies.

Note to listeners: Connectivity was a bit unstable for this week's recording. I offer my sincere apologies for any issues that might interfere with your full enjoyment of this week's podcast.My guest this week inspired me to check out a map of the United Kingdom and learn more about football, or as we call it: soccer. Melanie Evans is the social media manager for Scranton Fringe so she's helping Scranton enjoy the arts and area artists to find their way to the stage. But before she was helping to light up the Electric City, she made her way from Wolverhampton, a city and metropolitan borough in the West Midlands of England.I hope this week's conversation with Melanie helps you feel inspired to support the arts in your region and consider getting creative yourself.Applications for the Annual Scranton Fringe Festival are being accepted until March 31, apply here.A big "thank you" goes out to my podcast sponsors Reinvented Threads with Gabby Lynn and Healthy Lifestyle Management with Lisa Rigau for their generosity and support of this podcast.

'Dad always thought laughter was the best medicine, which I guess is why several of us died of tuberculosis.' Jack Handy, Deep Thoughts on SNL.Laughter won't cure tuberculosis, or any disease for that matter, but it sure will disarm us of toxicity and arm us instead with a host of healthy benefits. Research shows that it lowers cortisol (stress hormone), it boosts endorphins (pain relieving hormones) and improves blood flow throughout the body--among other researched benefits. My guest this week is Carol Deyoe, a woman who believes in the power of laughter and humor as much as I do. Carol's personal use of laughter and humor is notable. She's a stand-up comedian and pharmacy professional who used humor to get through two rounds of cancer and is sharing that inspiration and knowledge in her motivational presentation called Laughing at Tigers. Whether you lace up for a walk, kick back in your favorite chair, or buckle up that seat belt in the car, settle in for this poignant, powerful and humor-packed conversation.

In last week's podcast conversation, we touched upon the idea of blooming where you're planted. That's not to say you should accept everything as is in life. If it's not right for you, do what you can to change it...whether that be a job, place of residence, health status, etc. But, we also tend to look outwardly to want change to happen so some of us might complain about external things and act like they are responsible for our happiness or wellness, when in fact, everything begins with us.This week my guest is Jennifer Aleke, co-owner of J&M's Delights cookies and facilitator of "I Love Myself" workshops. As you'll hear in our conversation, Jen didn't start a cookie business because she's a passionate baker but she is passionate about bridging gaps between people and helping them make life enjoyable. J & M's (the M is for Jen's business partner Mike) is a cookie business inspired by love, family, and the power of connection. Their journey began with a shared mission to create treats that everyone could enjoy. Jen and Mike both live with a gluten allergy, so together they understand how hard it can be to find treats that are both safe and satisfying. Shop online for these delicious cookies or visit many coffee shops throughout Scranton. You can also taste these delicious treats on April 18 at the Marketplace at Steamtown and the Lace Village's spring vendor events. In addition to creating connection through cookies, Jen also leads workshops to help people reconnect with themselves through reflection, clarity, and intention for personal growth. One is planned at Nancy K. Holmes Library in Scranton on March 21 and watch for an April event at The Gather Community Space in Wilkes-Barre.

Jeannine is a professional speaker, workshop leader, educator, comedian, and podcaster who proves it's never too late to find—and use—your voice. Growing up in a middle-class, Catholic household, Jeannine learned early on how to balance speaking up at home while striving to make the nuns proud in public. A self-proclaimed late bloomer, she didn't fully embrace her creative side until her 20s, when she discovered improv and stand-up comedy. That turning point led her to leave a corporate marketing communications career in the healthcare field over a decade ago and pursue a dynamic gig-based life. Today, Jeannine runs her business Laugh to Live!, teaches mass communication, performs comedy at wineries, leads educational workshops, creates marketing content for clients, crafts wine cork earrings, and hosts the podcast Uncorked with Funny Wine Girl, where she highlights women doing kick-ass things.Follow Me:Instagram:@Officialkyliemontigney@TalkoffamepodFacebook:OfficialkyliemontigneyTalkoffameTwitter:@Kyliemontigney4About Me:Hi, I'm Kylie! I'm passionate about sports, spending time with family, traveling, and connecting with people who inspire me. I love listening to people's stories and sharing their journeys with the world!
The face of manufacturing is slowly changing, but with women holding approximately only 29% to 30% of jobs in the U.S. manufacturing sector, and making 80 cents to men's dollar, more changes need to happen.

Tune in to hear about Kate's path to manufacturing-- she currently serves as the Quality Systems and Sustainability Manager at Noble Biomaterials --and the example she is setting for future women in the industry.In Liz's new role as NEPIRC's Leadership Consultant, she is making invaluable contributions to help women elevate their career in manufacturing.

This week, my guest Tina Gallagher, who is a friend and author, talks with me about how AI helps her do research to keep her stories accurate and realistic, how it helps her brainstorm creative ideas for character names and book titles and how AI has shaken up the romance novel space, leading to author cancellations.

Mahatma Gandhi's words of: "Be the change you wish to see in the world," are spoken often and shared on social media and on bumper stickers. They are wise words. If we want things to change, we need to do whatever we can to contribute to that effort.My podcast guests this week Jennifer Graham Partyka and Sabrina Hannon were inspired to make their contributions by running for local office. Both women were elected in 2025 as the first women on the Glenburn Township Board of Supervisors. These women bring experience from the frontlines of life, often interacting with people in times of crisis through their day jobs--a benefit that Jen believes is vital to understand how the decisions made by elected officials can truly impact them. If you are considering running for office in Northeast PA, Jen will certainly be your cheerleader and help you to prepare. Reach out to the Abington Democrats to get involved alongside Jen and many others in the community who care. Tune in to hear what inspired Sabrina and Jen to become involved in local politics and hear what they're planning in their new roles.Thank you to my podcast sponsors Healthy Lifestyle Management with Lisa Rigau and Reinvented Threads with Gabby Lynn for their generous support.

In the few minutes I waited to see the ball drop on New Year's Eve, I saw at least three different weight loss ads or commercials for a gym--something you couldn't avoid given that Planet Fitness was a major sponsor for the NYE event on ABC. During this time of year, you will see and hear all the ways you can change and achieve goals and resolutions. Having goals and making healthy changes is a good thing, but you can only achieve them when you are ready, not when the calendar mandates. It's also important to not take on too much at once or you will likely feel overwhelmed.Behavior change is the main focus of this week's conversation with my guest Lisa Rigau of Healthy Lifestyle Management, who is also a podcast sponsor for Uncorked with Funny Wine Girl. Lisa is a registered nurse, nutrition counselor, and community educator of health, wellness, mindfulness, and nutrition. She received her Bachelor of Science in Nursing from the University of Delaware. Lisa received her Master's degree from Marywood University in Sports Nutrition and Exercise Science. And, she is a certified teacher of Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction through Brown University's School of Professional Studies & The Mindfulness Center at the School of Public Health.Lisa offers us guidance on how to be successful with behavior changes and reminds us that consistency is key. She says small moments many times make change. And she reminds us that when we fall off the rails--which will happen--we can always begin again.
