Live With Greg – Season 6 Episode 53 – Effective Communication

This month’s podcast guest is a real treat. We rarely see each other; and Miriam is definitely a friend. She’s also “a coach, mediator, lawyer, negotiator and linguist—a master communicator&hellp; Mom, wife, (mentioned) friend… And as her current career path is concentrating on communication, well, I am excited about this one. I know of no […]

Live With Greg – Season 6 Episode 52 – Ramble On

I met Travis Summer Deuel at the West Point Inn Father’s Day Pancake Breakfast… and we started talking about comedy and stand-up. So – we met up and hung out to continue celebrating a mutual fascination… and we rambled quite a bit. Seemed like moments to me… except that I was going on about partnership. […]

Live With Greg – Season 6 Episode 51 – New Mother Nature Taking Over

I was going to use apocalypse in the name of this episode… it seems more fitting to use something upbeat; supportive. And I don’t really think it’s the new Mother Nature taking over — I think she’s just speaking with more strength so we’ll listen. This is a very exciting episode for me, with special […]

Live With Greg – Season 6 Episode 50 – Friendship, Love and Truth

It is truly an honor to have as my guest for episode 50, historian and Odd Fellow, Peter Sellars. Peter and I were in the same class at Hayward High School. I knew he joined the Marines right out of high school – and we pretty much lost track of each other until a high […]

Live With Greg – Season 6 Episode 49 – Late, Audio, Life

Part of why I continue to do my podcast is a practice in discipline. And adapting to get an episode out is part of the process… so this episode is live – audio only. And it’s late. …and my special guest is Justin Nesbitt. I met Justin one the production of BAJA—he’s one of the […]

Live With Greg – Season 6 Episode 48 – Long Day’s Journey Into Night

This is a tribute interview – a tribute to those who travel this life with Huntington’s Disease. A tribute to Rolando, my guest Barbara Leistico’s husband. A tribute to those suffering from any disease. It is a tribute to those who survive to see the light on the other end of their long day’s journey […]

Falling from Grace

I’ve been thinking about David Goggins‘ words I heard today; his statement that the pain we feel is our desire to live better then we are and our knowledge that the ability to do so is real. His words give me hope while acknowledging the reason I am feeling emotional and physical pain. “ah… I […]

Live With Greg – Season 6 Episode 47 – A Deeper Look

This is a follow-up episode. Barry really wanted to be able to show his work. He expressed interest in wanting to do a follow-up… And it makes sense to me: The picture is worth ten thousand words. So — i threw out the standard sitting down format that I’ve been working with for the past […]

drudgery, pain, and woe

this morning… an hour and a half disappeared so quickly. I lie back down in bed for a quick moment’s respite — and BAM! — it is 7:30am and I am behind in my schedule. I have been witnessing of late the disparity between my vision for myself and the reality of my choices. Could […]

Live With Greg – Season 6 Episode 46 – Patience (Season opener)

Season Six opens with someone I am very fond of — he sets a fine example for me. I see in him a lot of the attributes I want to live strongly by; mostly Joy and Patience. Needless to say, I am very heartened to be opening my sixth season with him as a guest. […]
