Do you believe in resurrections? They happen every day. But are you willing to listen, to participate, to explore and find newer ways to understand your personal journey? This podcast isn’t about what we study and see through the eyes of religion. My Boy Boy Ernie spoke with me every chance we had together. But this isn’t about resurrecting a spiritual brother of nearly 34 years. This resurrection is that of a writing instrument. Verbal documentation of what some may call a vision quest. Trusting the great mysteries of life. Tools are handed to us to carve out each expectation. This tool was laid to rest inside a forest floor. To experience the elements of reality while connecting with a universe that unconditionally shares its stories. But whose writing it?

Cynthia Schumacher is well into her 90’s and is still writing and publishing books at a solid pace. After retiring as a teacher of 33 years, and then serving as an education advocate, she took to penning three children’s books and seven collections of stirring poetry. Now, at age 97, she has released her first book of short stories, Prose Pizza.“I try to shed light on the hidden, amazing layers that exist under ordinary people’s public lives,” says Schumacher. “These slices of life vary in tone and style, but come together as a coherent, nourishing whole.”Prose Pizza is a collection of nine short stories, exploring themes like hidden desires, identity, and social expectations through ordinary lives, with a style described as charming and insightful. The book uses the metaphor of pizza to represent the many "slices" or perspectives on life, marriage, and individual behavior, offering readers a variety of short, thoughtful pieces. Story themes include: private desires, social expectations, aging, identity, marriage, and the extraordinary within the ordinary. These stories, originally written 60 years ago, represent the slices of life.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.

iHeartPodcasts today announced it is partnering with actor, filmmaker and podcaster Rider Strong (Boy Meets World, Cabin Fever) to launch his new audio series, "The Red Weather." This innovative 8-episode autofiction podcast, inspired by Strong's initial work on a documentary about communes in and around his hometown of Sebastopol, California, masterfully blends a fictional true-crime mystery with a profoundly personal real-life narrative. The series will premiere with its first two episodes on January 28, with episodes launching twice weekly thereafter."'The Red Weather' started with me grabbing a microphone and asking old friends about kids we knew who grew up in so-called 'cults,'" said Rider Strong. "As the memories piled up, I wanted to find the best way to draw listeners into that unique time and place. I'm excited to team up with iHeart to bring this deeply personal project to audiences everywhere."The fictional investigative podcast will interrogate true-crime conventions, unreliable narration and the ethics of storytelling - all driven by a 1995 cold case. Strong, playing himself, will delve into the disappearance of his best friend's sister, Anna Trainor, from a commune in 1995. The central crime is fictitious, yet the recorded interviews with real family and friends, along with the exploration of Rider's own past, make for a deeply authentic audio experience and personal journey. Featuring documentary-style recordings with actors on location, "The Red Weather" will create a unique blend of reality and scripted drama, exploring themes of '90s nostalgia, the pitfalls of alternative parenting and misogyny."The concept behind 'The Red Weather' is truly unique, blurring the lines between what is real and what is masterful storytelling in a way that draws the listener in, providing them a glimpse into what life was like during Rider's formative years," said Will Pearson, President of iHeartPodcasts. "Part fiction, part true crime and part autobiographical, this podcast will captivate audiences."The cast of "The Red Weather" includes Strong's parents, his son, his brother Shiloh, as well as actor and director Jon Huertas (This is Us), Rachel Marsh (The Morning Show) and Heidi Sulzman (Hell or High Water)). Additionally, Kyle Morton, lead singer and creative visionary behind indie-rock band Typhoon composed all original music for the series."The Red Weather" is distributed by iHeartPodcasts and will be available on the iHeartRadio app and everywhere podcasts are heard.

“Free” takes on a deeply personal meaning for frontman Wes Scantlin. The song reflects his own struggles that he has contended with over the years. Essentially, “Free” is about severing ties with bad influences, whether it’s people or vices, and surrounding yourself with the good. Scantlin says, “Everybody goes through life with ups and downs, and you can find your way. Along the way, people come around and they’re not your people. Accept the people who are trying to help you.” When times get especially tough, Scantlin finds help in a higher power. Scantlin says, “Look up to God, ask Him for help, and He’ll take you somewhere better. I hope people hear their own story in ‘Free’ and take whatever they need from the song. Keep your head up, improve, and remain awesome. God will guide you in the right direction. Get free. Stay free. Stay kind and be nice to each other.” With a career spanning over two decades, Puddle of Mudd has cemented themselves as a prominent force in the world of rock music.

DON’T BE A BIGSHOTA Memoir of Growing Up in Jackson Heights, Queenshttps://www.rgnewman.com/ Raised in Jackson Heights, Queens, Richard G. Newman navigated race, class, and belonging in one of the most diverse neighborhoods in the U.S. Newman shares what it was like to grow up in a family shaped by a mix of war, pogroms, serving in the Russian Army, surviving Auschwitz, and silence that spoke volumes in the new book, DON’T BE A BIGSHOT.
