No one was expecting business as usual when Donald Trump returned to the US presidency last month - but even his most ardent supporters have been left open-mouthed after hearing his plan to send US troops to the Gaza Strip as part of its recovery. For a man who campaigned on ending wars and bringing American troops home, this idea seems like something no one voted for. But is Trump simply playing the long game? If Gazans want to see into the future, should they be reading ‘The Art Of The Deal'? For a vibrant debate on the topic, Piers Morgan brings on host of 'The Michael Knowles Show', Michael Knowles, Vincent Oshana from 'PBD Podcast', Palestinian-American commentator Omar Baddar and author and host of 'The Scott Horton Show' Scott Horton onto Uncensored.

Beth Pellino-Dudzic is the author of Playing Hard, the first novel in The Perfection Saga, which deals with sex, drugs and rock & roll in the 70's. This week's guest slate is presented by Simon Dingley, a recently retired CBC broadcaster. MAILBAG: We got an email from one of our previous guests.  Back on show #0752, we spoke to Xaysana Phavone and his sister Melissa Phavone who were vying for places on Dodgeball Canada's international team, with the hope of making it to the world championships which will be held in August in Graz, Austria. They made the team! If you want to watch and cheer them on, the tournament is taking place, August 11-17, and the YouTube page is DodgeBall Austria.  And if you want to hear the original interview with the siblings, you can go to our YouTube page for the title Xaysana Phavone & Melissa Phavone – Dodgeball.

Beth Pellino-Dudzic was born in the Bronx and grew up in Westchester County, New York. She earned a BA in Business Administration and worked at IBM. She has three adult daughters and a new Granddaughter. She currently lives in Alabama with her husband and their miniature dachshund, Truffle. Although The Perfection Saga is fictional, many of the stories hark back to Beth's time in the Rock ‘n' Roll world. Beth's favorite pastime is football, everything football. She also is an excellent cook and baker.https://perfectionsaga.com/https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61558439816678https://www.instagram.com/bpellinodudzic/https://www.tiktok.com/@bethandperfection1Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/i-am-refocused-radio--2671113/support.

When is enough enough? This week, I get deep into feelings about why it is hard for men to settle for the ones they "love." I then tackle how to combat the love bomber and the importance of controlling your access. Someone asked me what does "setting a bound even mean? I provide some guidance and examples to give you a better understanding. This then ties into a question I received about playing hard to get. Inside is the roadmap for more success with men.

We get into the tea she spills on Suge, and Dana tells you why she think he is the devil. We move on to Jada  stories about her falling out with Tupac because she went "Hollywood" on him. How she whips Will Smith, but what she can't get away with, he does have limits. How she climbed up the Hollywood ladder. Her take on the rumor she and Will are gay and swingers.  Dana shares her thoughts.  The lavish gifts Will gives her in the beginning. How RHOBH S11 "Friend of" Sheree Whitfield nearly destroys their relationship. Also, what her side of the story is with the infamous Oscar slap and why Chris Rock and Will Smith hate each other, and no tabloid covered it! Dana explains.  Finally, we finish with the reactions to her book and where she is now. Did she really split with Will 6 years ago or was it more like 3 years ago... and even that's gray.  Dana concludes the episode with her tripping on Ayahuasca story and past lives. Join the fun, and later today, Dana will be posting a poll in the Patreon to get your take on the Oscar's slap after the book, Worthy.Link to Full episode here Dishing Drama Dana: https://www.patreon.com/DishingDramaWithDanaWilkeySupport the showDana is on Cameo!Get Dishing Drama Dana Merch!https://represent.com/store/dishing-drama-dana-wilkeyFollow Dana: @Wilkey_Dana$25,000 Song - Apple Music$25,000 Song - SpotifyTo support the show and listen to full episodes, become a member on PatreonTo learn more about sponsorships, email DDDWpodcast@gmail.comDana's YouTube Channel
