There's a difference between making money and building wealth. Between achieving success and sustaining it. David Meltzer learned this the hard way when he lost over $100 million and had to tell his mother he'd lost her house too. In this powerful conversation with Genea, David shares the three distinct phases of his entrepreneurial journey and the internal shifts that changed everything. This isn't your typical rags-to-riches story. It's about the hidden costs of building from scarcity, the emptiness that can come with external success, and the moment David discovered that his biggest problem wasn't his circumstances, it was his relationship with them.

In 1974, CBS premiered Good Times, a TV sitcom that would showcase the first Black mother and Black father on screen – two parents, trying to make ends meet, while raising three children. Set in a public housing project in the south side of Chicago, Good Times elevated stories of struggle – the joy, the pain and the dreams of a determined Evans family during the economically turbulent 1970s. With legendary producer Norman Lear at the helm, the program would be one of three of the top ten rated shows with Black casts on American TV at that time – the other two gems were Sanford & Son and The Jeffersons.But there were many, including actors on these shows, who believed that producers equated the black experience with poverty and that too often writers pushed negative stereotypes and tropes, especially after the progress in civil rights of the previous decade. Times also weren't all that good for the Black creators of Good Times, Eric Monte and Mike Evans – both men struggled with Lear to receive recognition for their work.In the last 50 years, we've seen a (mostly) upward trajectory of positive Black representation in film and television – from the likes of The Cosby Show to Abbott Elementary or HBO's Insecure. Despite this advancement, negative stereotypes persist – and a new animated reboot of Good Times on Netflix is igniting fresh criticism, with many viewers saying the show promotes an image of Blacks as criminal, prone to violence, uneducated and hypersexualized. Would a reboot of a classic sitcom with an all-white cast like The Brady Bunch or Leave It to Beaver receive the same kind of treatment today?Join us as I SEE U host Eddie Robinson chats with the actor who portrayed the first Black teen on network television – Bern Nadette Stanis, who starred as Thelma, the daughter of the Evans family in Good Times. Stanis shares her thoughts on the adult reboot and how she felt misled after portraying one of the characters in the modern series. Plus, Variety TV critic, Aramide Tinubu, provides her perspective on why Hollywood still refuses to let go of outdated and harmful depictions of American Black life.

The No. 1 movie at the box office, “Civil War,” is a thinly veiled fantasy about assassinating Donald Trump. The film, written and directed by Alex Garland, isn't nearly as complicated, subtle, or apolitical as critics at the New York Times, Los Angeles Times, Variety Magazine, and the New Yorker suggest. The point of Garland's movie is simple: Killing Trump is the most efficient and sensible way to end America's political chaos. The movie is embarrassing. If it continues to do well at the box office, it will speak to how effective academia and corporate media have been at demonizing ordinary American citizens and Donald Trump. The fact that the movie was made, released, and not pulled from theaters speaks to how desperately the establishment wants to assassinate Trump. Shemeka Michelle, Anthony Walker, and Kevin Donahue join the show for an episode of “Fearless at the Movies” as the panel offers its unvarnished review of what Jason calls the worst movie he's ever seen. In Tennessee Harmony, Virgil Walker joins Jason, Anthony, and Kevin to discuss the controversy of a gay stripper's sword-swallowing exhibition at a men's conference that left two controversial pastors at odds with one another.

At 6PM over NBC's WEAF, The Catholic Hour took to the air with an address from Monsignor Fulton J. Sheen. Fulton John Sheen was born on May 8th, 1895 in El Paso, Illinois. He was ordained a priest in 1919, quickly becoming a renowned theologian. He won the Cardinal Mercier Prize for International Philosophy in 1923 and went on to teach theology and philosophy at the Catholic University of America. Beginning in 1930, Father Sheen began a twenty-year run hosting The Catholic Hour on NBC before moving into TV to present Life is Worth Living and The Fulton Sheen Program. Twice winning an Emmy for Most Outstanding TV personality, he was also featured on the cover of TIME magazine. He was appointed an auxiliary bishop of the Archdiocese of New York in 1951, holding the position until 1966 when he was made Bishop of Rochester. He resigned in 1969 near his seventy-fifth birthday and would live until December 9th, 1979. In 2002, twenty-two years after his death, an official cause for canonization into sainthood was opened. Pope Benedict XVI officially recognized his life of "heroic virtues." However, his 2019 beatification was postponed after the current Bishop of Rochester expressed concern that Sheen mishandled a sexual misconduct case against a priest. Although the Diocese of Peoria countered that his handling of the case had already been thoroughly investigated, as of 2024 Fulton J. Sheen's beatification is still postponed. Opposite The Catholic Hour, The Blue Network aired The Radio Hall of Fame on WJZ. Hosted by Deems Taylor and sponsored by Philco, The Radio Hall of Fame was conceived as a weekly Academy Award of radio through Variety Magazine, focusing on that week's hits. When it was launched in December of 1943, there was serious questioning as to whether it was proper for Variety to be so intimately involved. How could a trade paper whose business was reviewing show business enter into its production? Ben Bodec, a fifteen-year Variety reporter quit in protest, but the show went on without a hitch. It was a glittering spectacle, stars like Fred Allen, Bob Hope, Sophie Tucker, Groucho Marx, Bing Crosby, George Burns, Gracie Allen, and the Andrews Sisters all appeared. It would air until April 28th, 1946.

Having worked consistently in Hollywood for over 20 years, Eva Longoria has cemented herself as an industry staple known for her work both in front of and behind the camera. An award-winning actress, Emmy-nominated director, producer, entrepreneur, philanthropist, and activist, Longoria has been leading the charge of diverse and female representation since her starring role in the hit ABC series Desperate Housewives. Through her production company UnbeliEVAble Entertainment, Longoria has become one the most significant trailblazers in entertainment and recently renewed her overall deal with Twentieth Television for another three years. Founded in 2005, the company actively chooses purposeful projects that accurately represent the stories of the Latinx and other underrepresented communities. Named by Variety Magazine as one of the directors to watch in 2023, this year Longoria will make her feature directorial debut with the highly anticipated Searchlight Pictures biopic Flamin' Hot about the story of Richard Montañez and the spicy Flamin' Hot Cheetos snack for which she beat out multiple high profile film directors vying for the job. The film will be released on Hulu on June 9.

"We didn't call the police right away." Those are the electric first words of this extraordinary novel about a biracial Korean American family in Virginia whose lives are upended when their beloved father and husband goes missing. Mia, the irreverent, hyperanalytical twenty-year-old daughter, has an explanation for everything--which is why she isn't initially concerned when her father and younger brother Eugene don't return from a walk in a nearby park. They must have lost their phone. Or stopped for an errand somewhere. But by the time Mia's brother runs through the front door bloody and alone, it becomes clear that the father in this tight-knit family is missing and the only witness is Eugene, who has the rare genetic condition Angelman syndrome and cannot speak. What follows is both a ticking-clock investigation into the whereabouts of a father and an emotionally rich portrait of a family whose most personal secrets just may be at the heart of his disappearance. Full of shocking twists and fascinating questions of love, language, and human connection, Happiness Falls (Hogarth Press, 2023) is a mystery, a family drama, and a novel of profound philosophical inquiry.  Happiness Falls was an instant New York Times bestseller. Angie's debut novel, Miracle Creek, won the Edgar Award, the ITW Thriller Award, the Strand Critics' Award, and the Pinckley Prize and was named one of the hundred best mysteries and thrillers of all time by Time, The Washington Post, Kirkus, and the Today show. One of Variety Magazine's inaugural “10 Storytellers to Watch,” Angie has written for The New York Times Book Review, The Washington Post, Vogue, Glamour, and numerous literary journals. She lives in northern Virginia with her family. Recommended Books: Kazuo Ishiguro, Never Let Me Go Naoki Higashida, The Reason I Jump Daniel Mason, North Woods Hang Kan, Greek Lessons  Chris Holmes is Chair of Literatures in English and Associate Professor at Ithaca College. He writes criticism on contemporary global literatures. His book, Kazuo Ishiguro as World Literature, is under contract with Bloomsbury Publishing.

As the clock ticks toward All Hallow's Eve, we'll wind down where we began in last month's episode of Breaking Walls, with the October 30th, 1957 episode of LIFE and the World on NBC. The October 14th LIFE Magazine cover featured Little Central High School in Arkansas; the October 21st cover featured American scientists plotting Sputnik's orbit; while the October 28th's cover featured Queen Elizabeth opening Canadian Parliament. This episode features a speech by poet Carl Sandburg and a rare interview with Frank Lloyd Wright, both speaking about Chicago. Both Sandberg and Wright spent significant time in Chicago. Sandburg was back in Chicago debuting a new poem about the city. His speech from the banquet by The Chicago Dynamic Committee, was recorded. Frank Lloyd Wright settled in Chicago shortly after the Great Fire of 1871. He was ninety at the time of this interview, and as passionate as ever. His Guggenheim Museum was under construction in New York, while he dreamed of a mile-high office building for Chicago. On October 29th, 1957, head of MGM, Louis B. Mayer died of leukemia. He was seventy-three. The next day, Variety Magazine carried his obituary. Although Mayer was often disliked and even feared by many, director Clarence Brown said, “he made more stars than all the rest of the producers in Hollywood put together. “He knew how to handle talent; he knew that to be successful, he had to have the most successful people in the business working for him. He was like Hearst in the newspaper business. He made an empire out of this thing.” However, both movie studios and the entertainment industry were rapidly changing. As was America. But the only way passed is through. So, forward we go, in time that is, in the next episode of Breaking Walls.

BIO: Ryan Dusick is an associate marriage and family therapist, life coach, mental health advocate, and the founding drummer of the world's most popular band, Maroon 5.STORY: Ryan's worst investment ever was spending a decade of his time, energy, and focus believing that he had control over his life. Simply playing God with the reality of his existence.LEARNING: Happiness comes from connection and purpose. Investing yourself in something meaningful to you establishes purpose. “If you want to achieve certain things in your life, you must put yourself out there and be prepared for setbacks, disappointments, and failures.”Ryan Dusick Guest profileRyan Dusick is an associate marriage and family therapist, life coach, mental health advocate, and the founding drummer of the world's most popular band, Maroon 5.He is also a columnist for Variety Magazine and the author of the new book “Harder to Breathe: A Memoir of Making Maroon 5, Losing It All, and Finding Recovery.”His life has been a long and winding road from an aspiring pop star with anxiety to a heartbroken alcoholic to a thriving mental health survivor and messenger of hope in recovery.Worst investment everThe worst investment Ryan ever made was investing a decade of his time, energy, and focus into an illusion. The illusion was that he had control over his life, simply playing God with the reality of his existence. There were moments in that decade that were pleasant, enjoyable, and fun for Ryan.Maintaining the lie that Ryan had control of his life and that he could escape the feelings that were so painful was an exercise in futility. Life just got worse over time. His coping skills deteriorated. Ryan had invested in a way of life that was harming him and not benefiting him in any way other than maybe a moment of pleasure from time to time.Lessons learnedHappiness comes from feeling connection and purpose.Meaning and purpose are not necessarily handed to you by God or the universe. You can create them for yourself.Use your mindset to find ways to grow and find new connections and a new purpose.Investing yourself in something meaningful to you establishes purpose.Actionable adviceIf you want to achieve certain things in your life, to a certain extent, you have to put yourself out there and be prepared that there may be setbacks, disappointments, and failures. That's part of the process, ultimately, of getting to where you want to be. Those setbacks, disappointments, and failures don't make you a failure or mean it's the end of the road. It's part of the process of pursuing something valuable to you.No.1 goal for the next 12 monthsRyan's number one goal for the next 12 months is to be more of a professional speaker, step it up to the next level, and share some of the things he's learned on a bigger scale. He also wants to continue to write more.Parting words “Good luck to you on your journey. If it's been a while for you, it's still coming. Just be open to it.”Ryan Dusick [spp-transcript] Connect with Ryan DusickLinkedIn
