The subject of mental illness and murder is one that has been in the news a lot lately. It's a very touchy subject but one that needs to be talked about. It's vital that families recognize the signs of mental illness in their loved ones and get them the help they need. Those who suffer from mental illness are more likely to commit suicide than murder so the best thing a family can do is get them help. Unfortunately, not everyone gets the help they need and this can lead to murder. Betty Frizzell...

Scott retired from the Operation Mind Crime band in December 2020, after being off from touring for nearly a year due to the covid-19 pandemic. Not only has the pandemic taken many lives, but it has altered the lives of many people, and especially those in live theatrics and performance.

In S2 episode 39 I talk about the canine, man's bestfriend, the dog. Poor pooch. So many people went out and bought, adopted, maybe even stole a dog just to keep themselves company, and now that he or she has gone back to working 9-5 (again).. well, you get it. Pet adoption definitely surged during the pandemic, but what happens to all those pets when everyone goes back to work? Unfortunately, many of them will either end up in shelters again, having only been teased at the life of freedom for a...

What an incredible time we are living in right now. Space voyage is getting closer to becoming a reality for the general public (for those who can afford it) and soon we'll be sharing space travel photos. Granted it may only be from a high atmosphere altitude or maybe someday soon a low orbit. But, I think it'll still be decades before there's an actual space station inhabited by non-astronauts in space or on a planet surface. None the less, it is exciting. Toward the end of the podcast we begin...

On a separate note, I'm thinking about adding to my podcast and including short stories. Stories that I write, submitted to me, or even publish works that are in the open domain to be read ...

Smith based her story on the Rip Van Winkle tale, "Mine is called Rita Van Winkle which is a spin on Rip Van Winkle." The five authors worked on their stories as a collaborative effort (helped each other) when they needed it, but did not help one another write their stories. You can find the boo...

But, it didn't come without heartache, hard work, and tears. Those days have past, but Chip and the band with the current lineup of great mu...
