Hard Parking Episode 313Jhae Pfenning is back with his high-energy solo intro and special guest Andre "Dre" Mullins (aka Dre Day) for another unforgettable episode of Hard Parking. This one fires on all cylinders—cars, culture, controversy, and real talk.Jhae delivers a no-holds-barred rant on Bad Bunny's Super Bowl halftime show: the electric energy, set design, crowd reactions, political hypocrisy on both sides, and why it still ranks as one of the all-time greats despite the backlash. He compares it to legendary (and bizarre) past performances, including the 1995 Disney/Indiana Jones halftime spectacular.Dre jumps in for wide-ranging conversation: the decline of originality in music (heavy sampling vs. the one-artist/producer era of the 80s/90s Grammys), the NFL's Pro Bowl turning into flag football, and his standout experience at the Southwest Speed Festival—track action, time attack, open-wheel racing, and why it felt like a breath of fresh air.Car fans eat good too: Dre's daily-driven Acura NSX philosophy (maintainer, not show queen), upcoming Arizona car events, an honest take on the new 2026 Honda Prelude (design, target buyer, and actual sales numbers), plus real-world advice on Dre's wife's next vehicle search (MDX lease ending— Kia Telluride? Lexus TX? Acura MDX Type S?).The vibe is fun, honest, and charismatic—exactly why listeners love having Dre on the show.Key moments include: • Unfiltered Super Bowl halftime analysis • Mind-blowing AI video demos (celebrity fight scenes and more realistic than ever) • Car culture, charity events, and community • Lease vs. buy debates and dealership insights Whether you're into JDM icons, modern performance cars, or just great conversation, this episode is a must-listen.

Over the years, Kim dove deep into the entertainment industry. She guest-starred on several television shows, including 2 Broke Girls, 9-1-1, Hollywood Heights, Hot in Cleveland, Kenan, The Mindy Project, New Girl, Shameless, and The Up-Shaws. Kim also had recurring roles in Cherish the Day (Aunt Natalie), The Haunted Hathaways (Madame Labuef), and the animated series Kid Cosmic (Flo (voice)).

Maurie chats with the cast of the new SpongeBob movie and James Cameron about the latest Avatar adventure. We also talk worst ways to wake up, and share a heartwarming story about a woman who married the officer who once searched for her. All that and more in this packed episode!

Born Patricia Louise Holte in 1944 in Southwest Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, the woman we know as Patti LaBelle was raised in a large family as the second-youngest of five children. Her father worked on the railroad and performed in clubs, while her mother was a domestic worker. From a young age, Patti found solace and purpose in music — she joined her church choir at age 10 and by 12 was singing solo. Her early life wasn't easy. The marriage of her parents was troubled, and after her parents separated when she was 12, she experienced deep personal trauma. Yet despite hardship, she held onto music — both for comfort and as an outlet — listening to jazz, R&B and gospel as she grew up.In her mid-teens Patti began dreaming of making music beyond the church. By 1960, she formed a girl group called The Ordettes with friends at school. The next year members changed and the group evolved into Patti LaBelle and the Bluebelles — soon to become simply Labelle in the '70s. The Bluebelles enjoyed moderate success: in '62 they scored a Top-20 hit. Later, they found acclaim covering classics like “Somewhere Over the Rainbow.” In the '70s Labelle's sound evolved. The group embraced funk, soul, and rock — culminating in the '74 smash hit Lady Marmalade. The song and its style cemented their place in music history.But amidst growing fame, internal tensions and changing musical landscapes led to the group's split in '77. That difficult moment became the launchpad for Patti's solo journey. Patti's debut solo album, simply titled Patti LaBelle, came out in '77. Her true breakthrough came mid-'80s. A string of hits turned Patti into a household name. 1986's album Winner in You — featuring the duet On My Own with Michael McDonald — topped U.S. charts and solidified her commercial success.In the '90s Patti continued to release albums. She earned a second and sold tens of millions of records worldwide.Patti's talents reach far beyond singing. Over the decades she's dabbled in acting and is also a successful author. Her 1996 memoir Don't Block the Blessings: Revelations of a Lifetime gives insight into her hardships, faith and perseverance. She later penned cookbooks, launched a food brand with frozen comfort foods, and her signature sweet-potato pies.Today Patti LaBelle shows no signs of slowing down. In 2024, she marked her 80th birthday by announcing a brand new album titled 8065 — a tribute to her 80 years alive and 65 years in show business. She's also hit the road with the “8065 Celebration Tour,” which will take her to audiences around the world — including stops planned for Australia and New Zealand early in 2026.At 81, Patti remains a powerhouse performer. Her message to fans? Age is just a number — and she's proof. Reflecting on her decades-long career, she recently said she feels blessed to still be “standing” — able to sing, walk, and create. Her fans, across generations, couldn't agree more.From “The Ordettes” to Stardom, this episode details the rise and rise of the legend we knowas Patti Labelle.Catch her on tour here:Jan 16 Rancho Mirage, CA, United StatesJan 17 Thunder Valley Casino Resort Lincoln, CA, Jan 20 Riverside Theatre Perth, AustraliaJan 22 Palais Theatre St Kilda, Jan 24 Adelaide Entertainment Centre Jan 25 Sydney Event Centre Jan 28 The Star Gold Coast Jan 30 The Civic Auckland, New ZealandFeb 12 Jacksonville, FL, Feb 13 Charlotte, NC, United StatesFeb 15 St Louis, MOFeb 19 New OrleansFeb 20 Houston, TXFeb 22 Fort Worth, TXMar 14 Westbury South, NY

In this episode of Productivity Smarts, Gerald J. Leonard speaks with Sandy Joy Weston, M.Ed., author, podcaster, fitness entrepreneur, and unapologetic powerhouse of positivity. Sandy has dedicated her career to helping people connect their mindset and movement to create lasting joy, resilience, and success. From her early days training stars like Patti LaBelle to working with professional athletes and corporations, Sandy has seen firsthand how simple mindset shifts can unlock both personal and professional breakthroughs. Her book, Train Your Head and Your Body Will Follow, distills decades of wisdom into a practical framework for rewiring habits, resetting focus, and building a joyful foundation for productivity. During this conversation, Sandy shares how growing up in challenging circumstances shaped her mission to spread joy, why rituals and micro-habits matter more than marathon routines, and how anyone can reset their mind and body in as little as one to three minutes a day. If you've ever felt like stress, negativity, or “decision fatigue” were holding you back, this episode will give you the tools and the inspiration to take charge of your mornings and your mindset. What We Discuss [00:00] Introduction to Sandy Joy Weston [04:30] The story behind training Patti LaBelle and other high-profile clients [06:40] Turning obstacles into opportunities through joy and mindset [11:52] Sandy's “one-word” morning routine to jumpstart productivity [15:49] Why movement and laughter are key to shifting state [19:42] Lessons learned from working with professional athletes [23:00] Rituals, visualization, and positive self-talk as performance tools [25:17] The impact of reading 5,000+ books on health, mindset, and fitness [33:12] The value of mentors and “tour guides” in accelerating growth [34:44] Managing stress and negativity in a chaotic world [40:35] Gratitude, journaling, and power statements as daily anchors [46:03] Resources for adults and children, including Sandy's books and journals [47:35] Closing reflections and takeaways Notable Quotes [04:40] “I always believed my mission was to spread joy. I didn't know how, but I knew that no matter the vehicle, that was the purpose of my life.” – Sandy [07:42] “I wasn't impressed with who people were. Whether it was Patti LaBelle or a neighbor down the street, I treated everyone the same. I just wanted to help.” – Sandy [11:52] “Before I get out of bed, I ask: what word do I want to embody today? If I just do that consistently, everything changes.” – Sandy [23:00] “There was nothing more important for athletes than how they chose to show up—whether it was one minute, three minutes, or two hours. The ritual mattered.” – Sandy [35:03] “I want to feel the emotion and then move it off quickly. I always ask myself, does this thought serve me well?” – Sandy [40:35] “Every day, I write down five things I'm grateful for and five people I send peace, love, and joy to—even if they get on my nerves.” – Sandy Our Guest Sandy Joy Weston, M.Ed. is an international speaker, author, podcaster, and entrepreneur dedicated to spreading joy and helping people create simple, science-backed routines to live healthier, happier lives. She is the author of Train Your Head and Your Body Will Follow, Your 30-Day Reset Journal, and Recess to Reset for kids.
