Episode SummaryMaking sense of the plot of Atlantis: The Lost Empire (2001) proves almost as difficult as locating a lost civilization in the Atlantic Ocean.

Tonight's special guest is Elizabeth Knight (aka Willow Moon) from Savanna, Illinois, a child abuse survivor who's a speaker on the mismanagement of Native American rights. Elizabeth explains that she's an elder granddaughter of America sex trade 'Trail of Tears' survivor and the first Chief-Tess to petition for a house bill to congress a new treaty for all Native American women. "I like native history and it laws and treaties," she says. "Mine is a landmark case on Native American issues." These include government abuse, hate crimes, false arrests, FBI, sheriff's and jail abuse. Police brutality, court violations, white school abuse and sexual abuse are also included. "I serve on the work force." They address college sexual harassment, stalking, childhood rape, survivors of interstate kidnapping, shooting survivors, contract violations and constitutional violations. "I'm single now and 63 years old. I have two daughters and many grandchildren and great grandchildren. I was born Indiana, raised in Florida and Georgia, and now live in Illinois." She's a member of the Native American Coalition of the Quad Cities. Elizabeth tells the story of Sacagawea, born c. 1788 into the Agaidika ('Salmon Eater') tribe near present-day Salmon, Idaho. "Sacagawea was with Lewis and Clark." Her life was not what everyone believes. She suffered rape, sexual abuse, trauma and the pain she of being a young mother, like Pocahontas. Elizabeth says, "We were sex slaves [and] the truth has ever been told. I will tell the truth to really. What happened from 1692 forward to present day with our art, culture, and art treaties in our government." She concludes, "That promise gives our land back.

Welcome to the daily304 – your window into Wonderful, Almost Heaven, West Virginia.   Today is Sunday, Sept. 3  GreenPower Motor Company revolutionizes the Type A school bus…15 counties are added to West Virginia's Communities in Schools program… and swing into an unforgettable musical adventure when the Spider-man concert experience comes to Charleston…on today's daily304. #1 – From SCHOOL BUS FLEET –  Some manufacturers of the Type A school bus -- workhorse of the special-needs transportation system -- have struggled to meet production demand due to shortages of the chassis used to build the buses.  Fraser Atkinson, CEO of GreenPower Motor Company, noted that his company hasn't been directly affected by the chassis shortage when it comes to production of the Type A Nano BEAST, because it is built on GreenPower's EV Star Cab and chassis, making them their own chassis supplier. “What sets GreenPower apart is that all of our vehicles are purpose-built to be battery-powered with zero-emissions,” Atkinson said.  GreenPower Motor Co. operates a manufacturing facility in South Charleston. “We constantly look for new technologies and ways to improve our vehicles for our customers,” he said. “Most recently, we deployed a version of the Nano BEAST that serves the needs of special education students and children with disabilities by including wheelchair lifts and securements while featuring a flat floor to ensure excellent accessibility.” Read more: https://www.schoolbusfleet.com/10205313/revolutionizing-the-ride-a-closer-look-at-innovating-type-a-school-buses  #2 – From WOAY-TV – Schools in 15 new counties are being added to West Virginia's Communities in Schools program. Communities in Schools build community partnerships and bring resources into schools to prevent student dropout and increase graduation rates, according to State Superintendent of Schools Michele L. Blatt. “Communities In Schools has had a life-changing impact on thousands of students in our state,” Blatt said. “The relationships between site coordinators, schools, students, and families are at the core of this success. These students need support and structures that help them recover from setbacks and regain the confidence to believe they can do great things. Communities in Schools is essential to opening options and pathways for those needing hope and a vision for their future.” The new counties are Barbour, Boone, Cabell, Doddridge, Hancock, Jefferson, Marion, Mason, Mineral, Monongalia, Ohio, Pocahontas, Putnam, Roane, Tucker, Tyler, Wetzel, Wirt, and Wood.

Welcome to the daily304 – your window into Wonderful, Almost Heaven, West Virginia.   Today is Thursday, Aug. 31  Get ready for the Great Beckley Beer Festival this weekend -- Cheers!...Business and tourism is booming in the Potomac Highlands region…and the Kanawha Library's new nutritional literacy program is inspired by local Chef Otis Laury…on today's Daily304. #1 – From WVNSTV – The southern West Virginia community is gearing up for the fourth installment of The Great Beckley Beer Festival. Presented by West Virginia Collective, the event takes place Sunday, Sept. 3, at the Beckley Intermodal Gateway. Attendees will have the chance to savor a wide array of handcrafted beers from more than 30 brewers including Weathered Ground Brewery, Freefolk Brewery, and Fife Street Brewery. In addition to craft beer, the festival will also feature delicious food, local arts and crafts, and live entertainment.  For details and tickets, visit www.beckleybeerfest.com. Read more: https://www.wvnstv.com/news/local-news/celebrate-craft-beer-and-community-at-the-4th-great-beckley-beer-festival/   #2 – From WV EXECUTIVE – Characterized by stunning mountaintop views and an abundance of outdoor recreation, every aspect of the Potomac Highlands region reminds us why West Virginia is considered Almost Heaven. Encompassing the eight counties of Grant, Hampshire, Hardy, Mineral, Pendleton, Pocahontas, Randolph and Tucker, this region considers itself a nature lovers' paradise. While home to the highest geographical point in the state, Spruce Knob, which sits approximately 4,861 feet above sea level, this region also prides itself on taking the Mountain State to great economic heights. Whether it's a new health care initiative, educational opportunity or groundbreaking event center, this treasured piece of Appalachia is working diligently to help the state flourish in the areas of economic development, health, education, outdoor adventure and tourism. “Anecdotally, there are a lot of people moving here,” says Kevin Clark, director of the Mineral County Development Authority. “We've done some research, and our market is adjusting to the new housing demands. We're also trying to do some things with the BUILD West Virginia Act so that we get more benefits if a local developer develops properties than if an out-of-state developer develops properties.” Always searching for ways to attract visitors to the area, the Potomac Highlands region is introducing a myriad of exciting new projects and annual events. In Randolph County, a Tygart Hotel Renovation Project is already well underway. The county is also in the final stages of planning for a brand-new event center in an old rail yard that will attract a myriad of new visitors to the region.

The man next door is Otis Laury, West Virginia's unofficial chef to the stars, who's served as executive chef under three governors here and has catered parties for some of the region's most prominent families for decades. It was a win-win for both: Ellis points to dozens of photos of sophisticated dishes he's learned to prepare, and Laury's garden is a work of art.  The Kanawha Valley is also set to pick up a win: The main branch of the county's Public Library is poised to open its Otis Laury Center this fall, a nutritional literacy initiative with books, resources, recipes, and -- perhaps best of all -- an area for culinary lessons, presentations and demos by some of the best chefs around. Including Otis himself.

Dave Zaboski is the ultimate storyteller, having worked as an animator at Disney during the Second Golden Age of Animation on films including “Beauty and the Beast,” “The Lion King,” “Pocahontas,” “Aladdin,” “Hunchback of Notre Dame,” “Hercules,” “Fantasia 2000.” In this episode he shares the power of telling the story of the storyteller to align around driving positive change in the world. When you think of the stories about iconic Catalyst leaders like Yvon Chouinard, Steve Jobs, Elon Musk or Satya Nadella, you quickly get a sense about the power, for better or worse, of the power of the story of the storyteller.

From the 2000 program archive. Russell Charles Means (November 10, 1939 – October 22, 2012) was an Oglala Lakota activist for the rights of Native Americans, libertarian political activist, actor, musician and writer. He became a prominent member of the American Indian Movement (AIM) after joining the organization in 1968 and helped organize notable events that attracted national and international media coverage. Means was active in international issues of Indigenous peoples, including working with groups in Central and South America and with the United Nations for recognition of their rights. He was active in politics at his native Pine Ridge Indian Reservation and at the state and national level. Beginning an acting career in 1992, he appeared on numerous television series and in several films, including “The Last of the Mohicans” and “Pocahontas” and released his own music CD. Means published his autobiography, "Where White Men Fear to Tread,” in 1995. He was given the name Waŋblí Ohítika meaning “Brave Eagle” in the Lakota language. He talks about an array of topic but mostly patriarchy and matriarchy, and what it means to become a “Pow Wow” Indian.

Today we head on down to the internet imbibery, to drink our cares away and talk funny about all things theme parks. This week Adriane and Ryan talk all about Princess weak.

"Love and fear are the driving forces in life. When we lean towards love, listen to our hearts, and take courageous leaps, we contribute to a better reality for everyone. It's about embracing courage and understanding, rather than succumbing to fear," says Paige Easter, Co-host of the Shift to Freedom podcast.This week, Ben and Paige are digging into their impressions of the beloved Disney classic, Pocahontas! While Ben experiences the movie for the first time, Paige fondly recalls it as a cherished part of her childhood. The hosts explore the film's themes of love and fear, and the thought-provoking interplay of toxic masculinity versus healthy masculinity portrayed through the movie's supporting characters. While Pocahontas may not boast metaphors like other Disney classics, the hosts celebrate the lessons and insights that Pocahontas imparts about having the courage to follow your heart in the face of adversity, taking the time to truly listen to those you disagree with in order to resolve differences, and generally following your heart's call.Key Takeaways:Love and understanding possess the power to conquer fear and turmoilAttentive listening bridges gaps and nurtures connectionsChoosing the path less traveled, coupled with an adventurous spirit, can lead to genuine personal fulfillmentQuotes"I think it is a risky path to ride the river that is less known and that is choppier, and that is less smooth. But ultimately, the willingness to embrace courage, and listen and understand things in your world will serve you in the long run and will amount to much more safety than just following the traditional path where you actually still don't know what is around the bend." (25:42 | Ben Easter)"For me, it was all about love and fear and that when you are leaning towards and allowing yourself to want things and listen to your heart that you take courageous leaps in it contributes to a better reality for everybody who's in it - versus being afraid and fearful and ending up (where) people get hurt."

Episode 342: Kurt Krause currently serves as the President and CEO of Visit Norfolk, joining in 2019. He is responsible for directing the effort to improve the quality of life for all residents through the economic and community benefits of tourism. His history in the hotel industry spans over 37 years, including 21 years with Marriott International, eight years with Aramark, and four years with Gold Key PHR. Arriving in Norfolk in 2014, he led the pre-opening efforts of Hilton Norfolk – The Main, followed by re-opening the historic Cavalier Hotel and Cavalier Beach Club in Virginia Beach. As well as his career in the hotel industry, Kurt served our Country initially as a Loaned Executive for the Transportation Security Administration. As a founding member of the largest start-up of any private or public organization, he was specifically responsible for many of the consumer-oriented deliverables. For his effort in the participation of founding the agency, in addition to the consumer element, he was recognized with the Department of Transportation Distinguished Service Medal by Secretary Norman Minetta in 2002. Kurt then joined his alma mater, Virginia Tech, as Vice President of Business Affairs; responsibilities included Facilities, Personnel, VT Police Department, Department of Environmental Health and Safety Services, Office of the University Architect, and Real Estate Management. On the personal side, after enjoying 20 years of playing amateur baseball (2003-2023), winning two national championships, Kurt found enjoyment on stage, participating in the Hampton Roads Dancing with the Stars, performing with the Virginia Opera, and with Hurrah Players in Annie (2018) and Dames at Sea (2019). On this episode of Destination on the Left, I talk with Kurt Krause about how Visit Norfolk is revisiting a successful collaborative campaign from 2020 to see how they can apply those learnings to new need areas. He shares more about the “City with Bite” and how it has led to engagement with the local community in addition to visitors. Kurt also highlights current plans to tell the authentic history of Norfolk through a program called Pathways to Freedom, which tells the story of the Underground Railroad, recognizes the harrowing experiences of those who sought freedom, the individuals and institutions that aided them, and the historical locations that played a part in their journey.   What You Will Learn in this Episode: What Visit Norfolk is doing to break through the noise of a crowded travel and tourism market, including a collaboration with Virginia Beach that generated $6 million of hotel business in the summer of 2020 How can we apply insights gained during the COVID-19 pandemic to keep us moving forward as DMOs in new periods of need Why those that keep their marketing going and continue connecting with their audience, even when times are tough, recover faster when a crisis hits How the “City with Bite” series started, how they produce and market it, and how they envision making it financially sustainable Kurt shares one of the projects that Visit Norfolk is proud of right now, including how they recognize the city's problematic history and sensitively tell the authentic story of enslaved people in the area The “City with Bite” Initiative Kurt discusses the often overlooked but crucial role residents play in destination marketing. It's not solely about attracting out-of-town visitors but also engaging the locals in the activities and experiences the city offers. He shares more about the “City with Bite” initiative, a restaurant series now in its third season, which was invented to motivate residents to patronize local eateries again. The “City with Bite” series has rejuvenated the local culinary scene and enhanced residents' understanding and appreciation of the visitor economy. One distinctive feature of the “City with Bite” series is the inclusion of restaurant customers in their episodes. They are invited to share their experiences, reminiscences, and thoughts about the highlighted restaurants, fostering a deeper connection between the local community and the city's gastronomic landscape. Sharing Untold Stories Kurt also shares some of the upcoming projects Visit Norfolk is undertaking that he's particularly proud of. For the last two years, the team has been working on a project based on “Pathways to Freedom,” a book by Dr. Cassandra Newby Alexander that narrates the tale of the underground railroad in Norfolk. This venture aims to tell the untold stories of those who braved the perilous journey to freedom, a narrative often eclipsed by more popular accounts like those of Pocahontas and Captain John Smith. Through this project, Visit Norfolk aims to shed light on the harrowing experiences of those who sought freedom, the individuals and institutions that aided them, and the historical locations that played a part in this journey. One of the most fascinating things about this initiative is the use of augmented reality (AR) to bring these historical narratives to life. For example, the technology can help recreate the imagery of the tunnels under St. Mary's Basilica, where the enslaved were known to escape. It can also show places such as the slave jail or warehouses that no longer exist. The goal here is to foster an understanding of the city's history and how it has progressed, not perfectly but significantly, towards becoming a diverse and inclusive community.

The Pocahontas coal field, located in southwest Virginia and southern West Virginia, was one of the most productive coal areas in the United States. The town of Pocahontas, in Tazewell County, Virginia, and for which the field was named, was granted a town charter by Virginia on January 31, 1884.Less than two months later tragedy struck when the Laurel (East) mine suffered a series of massive explosions powerful enough to move homes off their foundations and uproot massive trees.Today we tell the story of the Laurel mine disaster of 1884, a tragedy that cost the lives of at least 114 men and boys.Be sure to subscribe to the Stories podcast on your favorite podcast app so you don't miss any of our stories.This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/5553692/advertisement

She brought a small town to its feet and a huge company to its knees – that's right, this week we're talking all things Erin Brockovich with the film's screenwriter, Susannah Grant.Susannah is a talent who, over an impressive three decade career, has gone from writing on the ‘90s teen TV drama Party of Five and conquering animation with Pocahontas to penning dramas like 28 Days, romcoms like In Her Shoes and science-fiction with The 5th Wave. She's also a force to be reckoned with behind the camera: having made her directorial debut in 2006 with the comedy drama Catch and Release, Susannah wrote and directed episodes of the recent searing Netflix series Unbelievable, which took a scalpel to the problem of rape culture in America.Erin Brockovich, though, remains one of her best-loved works. Her witty script for the Julia Roberts-starring, Steven Soderbergh-directed legal drama earned her an Oscar nomination on release in 2000, and it's both a testament to her writing and an indictment about our society's lack of progress that the film still feels so relevant today. The film told the true-life tale of a single mother who fought and won a landmark legal case against the Pacific Gas & Electric Company over contaminated water supplied to residents in the town of Hinkley, California. In order to secure justice for the hundreds of people made sick by PG&E's malfeasance, the real-life Erin had to navigate misogyny, classism and the demands of parenthood. Susannah's script captured all of that with poignancy and punch.In the spoiler conversation you're about to hear, Susannah tells us all about grabbing burgers with the real-life Erin Brockovich, the importance of David vs Goliath stories like this, the balance of fact versus fiction in the film – and the one line that had to change at Erin's request.Script Apart is hosted by Al Horner and produced by Kamil Dymek.

Y'all, I couldn't find music for this one. I'm sure it's there, but not where I could find it while I was editing. Also, my Audacity audio dropped out for a good chunk of the first section, so I had to use my Craig audio for it. At least it sounds closer to normal this time, I think. Anyway, this movie doesn't know shit about Trondheim, Norway.

[3:26] This Full Moon answers the “call” of the Dec. 23, 2022 Capricorn New Moon, which squared Jupiter in Aries and was packed with ambition and enthusiasm. This Full Moon, trine Jupiter in Taurus, is a lot more relaxed.  How can we actually tackle the intentions we made at that Capricorn New Moon? [5:10] This is the Full Moon in a Lunar Phase Family Cycle that began at the January 2, 2022 New Moon (12º20' Capricorn). Other important dates in this cycle are Oct. 2, 2022 (First Quarter) and Apr. 1, 2024 (Last Quarter). [6:23] Void-of-Course (VOC) Moon periods. The Capricorn Moon conjoins Pluto on July 4 (9:45 AM PDT). It's VOC for about 45 minutes before entering Aquarius (10:30 AM PDT).  If you're in the United States and have to work on the 4th of July holiday, see if you can't get that work done in the morning. Enjoy the rest of the day, after the Moon enters Aquarius, having fun celebrating with people close to you. [8:47] On July 6th (6:42 AM PDT), the Moon in Aquarius opposes Mars in Leo, then is VOC for about 3 ¼ hours before entering Pisces (10:32 AM PDT).

In Episode 184, we learned that transiting Mercury is out-of-bounds through July 7th. Think and communicate outside the box but be mindful of others' feelings. [12:42] On July 6 (9:54 PM PDT), Mercury sextiles Uranus at 21º57' Cancer and Taurus. Mercury's Sabian symbol is 22 Cancer, Woman awaiting a sailboat. Uranus is on 22 Taurus, White dove over troubled waters.  Do a little bit of brainstorming to tackle a creative, work or home project.  Brilliant ideas could arise!

Fonseca sits down with actress Irene Bedard (voice Pocahontas)American actress, who has played mostly lead Native Americanroles in a variety of films. She is perhaps best known for the role of Suzy Song in the 1998 film Smoke Signals, an adaptation of a Sherman Alexie collection of short stories, as well as for providing the speaking voice for the titular character in the 1995 animated film Pocahontas.[2] Bedard reprised her role as Pocahontas in the film's direct-to-video follow-up, Pocahontas II: Journey to a New World (1998) and for a cameo in Ralph Breaks the InternetCollider magazine says work on the second Super Mario Bros movie has been halted because of the Hollywood Writers Strike TParamount+ is developing a new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles TV show. The series would take place after the upcoming Mutant Mayhem movie and may launch as soon as 2024.Arnold Schwarzenegger says he beat out OJ Simpson for the role of The Terminator because no one at Orion Pictures was convinced Simpson was a killer. The Daily Mail quotes Arnold as saying, ''During our conversation, it became clear no one was hooked to OJ Simpson playing Terminator because he could not be sold as a killing machine.''Chris Hemsworth tells GQ magazine that his three children aren't fans of his Thor movies.“It's a bunch of eight-year-olds critiquing my film. ‘We thought this one had too much humour, the action was cool but the VFX weren't as good'. I cringe and laugh equally at it. It's always hard being in the center of it and having any real perspective… I love the process, it's always a ride. But you just don't know how people are going to respond.” The JoBlo movie website says filming on ''Deadpool 3'' has begun. Ryan Reynolds is not allowed to improvise on the set because of the writer's strike. He can't use new lines for the film because he is officially credited as a writer on it. The Writer's Union has guidelines that do not allow lines to be changed when a movie is filming during a strike. Media Entertainment Arts says there is a growing number of people, who want Chris Pratt to replace Harrison Ford as Indiana Jones.The Internet reacts ...“We shouldn't have to raise Harrison Ford from the dead to enjoy another #IndianaJones adventure. After seeing Chris Pratt in both GotG & Jurassic World, he became my new candidate for a recast. It's not hard.''“I may get heat for this but Chris Pratt as Indiana Jones would rock.”“I hope they continue the Indiana Jones franchise and cast Chris Pratt as Indy.”“If they ever decided to make a rebooted version of Indiana Jones in the near future? The only two individuals I could see playing Indy? Are Chris Pratt or Bradley Cooper? Both of which have worked for Disney before and look like Harrison Ford.” Entertainment Tonight says Chevy Chase and Dan Aykroyd are reuniting for a new horror comedy called ''Zombie Town''. The movie is about a film that turns an entire town into zombies before two teenagers save everyone. Chevy and Dan haven't worked together since the 1991 movie "Nothing, But Trouble".Robert Englund tells Variety magazine that he is too old to play Freddy Krueger again. “I'm too old and thick to play Freddy now. I just can't do fight scenes for more than one take anymore, I've got a bad neck and bad back and arthritis in my right wrist. So I have to hang it up, but I would love to cameo.”

Answer: Hamburger.Psalm 38: The Prayer of a Suffering Penitent. Starts, "O lord, rebuke me not in thy wrath." This is one of the 7 Penitential Psalms. Guilty conscience leads to paranoia and oh look it's a Republican!Psalm 39: Hope in the LORD. Starts, "I said, I will take heed to my ways, that I sin not with my tongue." This psalm was written by Moses the way Disney's Pocahontas is based on actual history.

University of Delaware Professor Zara Anishanslin taught a class about how colonial history is remembered through historic sites and monuments, and sometimes contested. She argued that people's assumptions about Colonial America are influenced by material and popular culture, including paintings depicting early American history in the U.S. Capitol and statues of Columbus and Pocahontas.

In rural areas in Pocahontas, communities are much more close-knit. So when a popular business owner goes missing and is found days later brutally murdered and dismembered by her own business and life partner, the public's reaction can be extreme. So much so that the accused killer's trial is set in a separate county to ensure impartiality from jurors. This episode of Crime in the Coalfields delves into the Pocahontas County case of Melba Marie Hickson Fitzgerald. Izzy and Harper discuss the unique legal battle, and the possible warning signs of this sudden murder.

Husband and Wife cover Job chapter 40: The LORD Convinces Job of Ignorance (cont.) / The Manifestations of God's Power.God engages in some serious deflecting and then goes on about Behemoths. He does this song-and-dance about how strong he is, but after butchering "Colors of the Wind" yesterday, we are unimpressed. Leave the animals to Disney's Pocahontas, God, and just answer the damn question!

Stephen Schwartz (stephenschwartz.com) was born in New York City on March 6, 1948. He studied piano and composition at the Juilliard School of Music while in high school and graduated from Carnegie Mellon University in 1968 with a B.F.A. in Drama. Upon coming back to live in New York City, he went to work as an A&R producer for RCA Records, but shortly thereafter began to work in the Broadway theatre. His first major credit was the title song for the play BUTTERFLIES ARE FREE; the song was eventually used in the movie version as well. In 1971, he wrote the music and new lyrics for GODSPELL, for which he won two Grammys among other awards. This was followed by the English texts, in collaboration with Leonard Bernstein, for Bernstein's MASS, which opened the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, D.C. The following year, he wrote the music and lyrics for PIPPIN, and two years later, THE MAGIC SHOW. At one point, GODSPELL, PIPPIN and THE MAGIC SHOW were all running on Broadway simultaneously. He next wrote the music and lyrics for THE BAKER'S WIFE, followed by a musical version of Studs Terkel's WORKING, to which he contributed four songs and which he also adapted and directed, winning a Drama Desk Award as best director. He also co-directed the television production, which was presented as part of the PBS “American Playhouse” series. Other work for the musical theatre includes lyrics to RAGS (music by Charles Strouse), music and lyrics for CHILDREN OF EDEN, and two musicals produced overseas, MIT EVENTYR (MY FAIRY TALE) in Denmark and SCHIKANEDER in Austria.  He has also written songs for two musicals for young audiences, CAPTAIN LOUIE and MY SON, PINOCCHIO.  Compilation revues of his work include SNAPSHOTS and, for Princess Cruise Lines, MAGIC TO DO. For film, he collaborated with composer Alan Menken on the songs for Disney's POCAHONTAS, for which he received two Academy Awards and another Grammy, THE HUNCHBACK OF NOTRE DAME, and ENCHANTED. He also provided songs for DreamWorks' first animated feature, THE PRINCE OF EGYPT, for which he won another Academy Award for the song “When You Believe.”   THE HUNCHBACK OF NOTRE DAME and THE PRINCE OF EGYPT have both been adapted for the stage. Mr. Schwartz's most recent stage musical, WICKED, opened in the fall of 2003 and is currently running on Broadway and in several other productions around the world. He received another Grammy for the cast recording, and in 2008, WICKED reached its 1900th performance on Broadway, making Mr. Schwartz the only songwriter in Broadway history ever to have three shows run more than 1900 performances. His first opera, SEANCE ON A WET AFTERNOON, premiered at Opera Santa Barbara in the fall of 2009 and was subsequently produced by New York City Opera.  His frequently-performed choral works include “Testimony”, based on the It Gets Better Project, “Keramos” and part of the “Tyler Clemente Suite.”  He has also released two singer/songwriter CDs, RELUCTANT PILGRIM and UNCHARTED TERRITORY. Mr. Schwartz has been awarded a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and inducted into the Theatre Hall of Fame and the Songwriters Hall of Fame.  In 2015, he received the Isabelle Stevenson Tony Award for his humanitarian and mentorship contributions to the theatre.  A book about his career, “Defying Gravity,” has been released by Applause Books. Under the auspices of the ASCAP Foundation, he has been the artistic director of musical theatre workshops in New York and Los Angeles for over twenty years, as well as conducting workshops for aspiring musical theatre writers and performers in countries around the world, including Australia, Germany, Latvia and Kenya.  He is also a past President and current Council Member of the Dramatists' Guild.

Garrett Tyler is a drummer, producer and music director - and perhaps the most famous guest we've ever had on! He is originally from Pocahontas, AR but now calls Nashville home. Garrett connects the dots for us on how a small town guy from Pocahontas grew to travel the world doing what he loves: playing and directing music for groups like For King and Country, Judah and the Lion  and his own band Local Sound. We get him to name drop a few of the most famous people he's shared the stage with and even opened for. We are so glad he stopped by while he was home for a local show and we think you'll love getting to know him as much as we did.Find him on Instagram @garrettptyler.

I had fine artist and Illustrator Keith Batcheller on the podcast today. He went to ArtCenter College of Design in Pasadena, got his BFA, and worked with all these interesting folks afterward, including Bob Peak, Mark English, and Bernie Fuchs. When Keith became a professional illustrator he worked with big firms in New York, Chicago, and L.A.  He eventually started working for Walt Disney Productions and did artwork for massive animated films like Pocahontas, Beauty and the Beast, the Hunchback of Notre Dame, Hercules, and my personal favorite - Lilo & Stitch.Disney still uses Keith's illustrations to this day for all sorts of different reasons, whether it's for a Hercules toy or a Star Wars celebration event. It's just a fascinating ride. Keith also worked on the promotional art and packaging for the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles action figures that took the country by storm in the late 80s/early 90s. Fast forward to today, and he's moved on from his highly successful illustration career (like many of the artists that I've interviewed have) and is focusing on fine art. We talk about the switch from illustration to fine art and explore the concept of beginning your journey on one very specific path, only to arrive at a completely different destination after decades of hard work and dedication to said path. I think the only way you can do that as an artist is that you have to be able to pivot. Keith? Yeah, he's done that quite successfully if you ask me.  Keith Batcheller on Art Dealer Diaries Podcast episode 242.
