In this episode, I interview author Sandy Jarvis. Sandy is a poet, and has authored 3 books with her new book called ‘The Golden Kite' which is about friendship, telling the truth, and forgiveness. Young readers are pleasantly entertained, and not harmed, by the fact they may learn a subtle lesson about self-esteem and trust. The book title is itself linked to her own childhood. When not writing, Sandy worked for New York City Homeless Services and HIV/AIDS care for 40 years. As a case manager specialist, she assisted clients with financial benefits, health care, evictions, and permanent housing. She have a good recommendation for helping those in need, especially with seeking housing. Sandy was honored with the PAI award and a certificate for outstanding services at Human Resources Administration from the commissioner of NY, Steven Banks. Helping the homeless gave me the opportunity to understand their struggles and triumphs. she also attended Fordham University Graduate school of Social Services HIV/AIDS Academy. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/allthingsblack/message

At the start of his time with the Artist Propulsion Lab, composer and saxophonist Steven Banks set out to compose a piece of music that explores meditation and mindfulness, and in which the music and meditation were supportive partners. The result is Begin Again, created in collaboration with Ten Percent Happier meditation teacher Matthew Hepburn. Begin Again uses guided meditative exploration and musical composition to lend insight into the ways that we relate to struggles within ourselves and in the world.

Welcome to the "Los Angeles Breakfast Club: ON THE AIR" in the age of Covid-19! This is far from a normal installment of our regular audio time travel expedition into the history, happenings and colorful characters that comprise the now 95 year story of the one and only Democracy of Ham an' Eggs. And that's okay, because these are far from normal times. Fortunately, the Shrine of Friendship is at least as much a state of mind as it is a physical space, and you will be treated to an hour of good music, hearty laughs and uplifting fellowship ... Host Phil Leirness gets the ball rolling with the inspiring "My Resolution" presented at the Los Angeles Breakfast Club at the start of 1942. He and his intrepid announcer, Marc Hershon, then guide you through new member initiations, featuring individually-crafted rituals by club president Lily Leirness, and member birthdays. Foundation president Bob DeWees then introduces Reverend Barabara Adams who takes us down the path that leads to our continuing "Adventures in Friendship" with a remarkably prescient and uplifting reading. Bob then introduces legendary NBC 4 weather forecaster (and longtime stand-up comedian) Fritz Coleman, who brings the funny. Kevin Segall introduces actor-writer Steven Banks, who offers up a song. The 2nd half of the show involves Phil checking in with each of the five Breakfast Club tables, finding out how quarantine is treating the dais table's Richard Gilson, the nurses table's Sandy Boucher, the Konrad Monti smoking section's Christopher Hanson, the 60's Mafia table's Don Snyder, and the Roosters' very own Kahlil Nelson. You will learn things you never knew about these people, you will hear heartening tales of how they are embracing these challenging times, and you will enjoy a lot of laughs.
Concert clarinetist and soprano saxophone player, Chris Elchico joins Steven Leavitt to talk about his experience being a classical musician, music teacher, and local coffee shop barista. Chris discusses the role of the classical musician, and what it's like playing with a quartet with members that live across the US. After getting his bachelors from UCLA and his masters from Indiana University in saxophone and clarinet, and studying under renowned LA Philharmonic player Burt Hara, Chris began the process of auditioning for orchestras across the US. He talks about the harrowing process of auditioning behind a screen where the judges base their critique on his sound alone. In 2012, Chris and his quartet won a trip around the world, performing at Notre Dame and ending up in Italy. “It was like living the dream, for 12 days.” He and Steve discuss what it's like to come back to “real life” and the daily grind, but it's apparent that Chris' kindness and positive attitude about life is one of the reasons he makes his successes look so unimposing. Chris is a soft spoken, compassionate person who uses his innate skills of empathy and listening to excel in his jobs as a barista, music teacher, and classical musician.
