Robert Hecker in conversation with David Eastaugh http://www.itsoktheband.com/ Played lead guitar and sang with Redd Kross from 1984 to 1991, and again from 2006 to the present, in addition to occasional on-stage reunions throughout the 1990s. He has also played guitar and sang with the band It's OK! since 1992. As of 2013, he no longer actively tours with Redd Kross, but continues to perform live with It's OK! It's OK! is/are: Robert Hecker (chameleon-voiced guitar guru, Redd Kross), Ellen Rooney (five-octave vocalist), Dennis McGarry (eight-string bass & three-piece suit), & Roy McDonald (drummer extraordinaire, The Muffs & Redd Kross). Individually, they can all stand as shred-lords, but collectively, they make a beautiful, hyper melodic (& harmonic) sound.  It's OK! have released four sixteen-song albums on Econoclast Recordings, each & every one of them a triumph of eclecticism. It's OK! have been compared to Queen, Guided By Voices, Poi Dog Pondering, Velvet Underground, Leonard Cohen, the Ink Spots, the BellRays, & A Giant Dog, to mention just a few. “We like all different kinds & sorts of music, so we write all different kinds & sorts of songs.” The band are currently constructing their fifth album. 

A new survey shows that with the ongoing pandemic and complexities caused by school closures this fall, employers are expecting a rise in mental health challenges for their employees. In this episode, two world-renowned mental health experts from Harvard Medical School and McLean Hospital, Dr. Kerry Ressler and Dr. Lisa Coyne, join Unum's employee benefits and well-being strategy expert ,Robert Hecker, to discuss the survey's findings and how employers can support their employees. Key Takeaways Employers are expecting a big rise in mental health issues. 85% of employers surveyed are very or somewhat concerned about their employees' mental health or wellness needs. (02:21)The stress people are experiencing is not new. However, the pandemic and other environmental factors have made these issues more acute, and employees are exhibiting higher levels of stress. The challenge is figuring out the right action to take to support employees in a meaningful way. (3:28)Employers can encourage healthy behaviors and preventive measures that will help keep most people healthy and resilient. Additionally, employers should watch for behaviors and symptoms that suggest professional help is needed. (5:39)Parents with children who are different ages or have behavioral health issues will be likely to experience even more draining demands. All parents with children will be at risk of burnout. (9:30)Employers should help parents be aware of resources for their or their kids' mental health and consider offering flexible work schedules.

Robert Hecker—Managing Director, Pacific Asia of Horwath HTL—joins David and Catherine in this episode of The Future of Travel. A long-time friend of QUO, Robert provides insight into when and how he believes tourism will recover from the COVID-19 crises. According to Robert, the dominant industry sentiment is that pre-pandemic levels won't return until 2024. As a result, Robert believes projects slated to open in 2024 or later will be okay, but anything set to open in the next three years may struggle due to excess market capacity. And while he doesn't see foreclosures happening just yet, Robert expects some consolidation among hotel management groups, whether through takeovers or joint ventures.

Robert discusses Redd Kross and the recording of Third Eye. His no holds barred assessment of where Redd Kross fit in the"scene" during that time is refreshingly honest. He also treats us to some guitar riffs and shares great stories about Soundgarden, Scorpions, his love of KISS, and his early years with "the Krosses". #ReddKross #ThirdEye #Neurotica #ItsOK! #RobertHecker #Hawthorne #podcast #fathomingheavy
