Send us Fan Mail What's keeping me up? The fact I equate sleep with DEATH.  Morbid and weird? Perhaps? I start to fall asleep and wonder, "what if I never wake up?

I think it's worth the 20 minutes. On...

Send us Fan Mail On this Thanksgiving eve, I am focused on gratitude. Moving forward. Pressing on. Looking to the future. But I can't help to be upset and frustrated by the present.

Send us Fan Mail To quote Brittney Spears, "Oops I did it again."  This is part ONE of a TWO part podcast.  Why? I was in the middle of recording this podcast when, suddenly, I heard a raucous.  I got side tracked by the raucous and accidently ended the episode. Which sucked because it was shaping up to be a kick ass episode! So, I made executive decision to KEEP this episode and turn it...
