Jeff Sawyer is a good friend who has been amazing me with his musical talents over the last 15 years. We met through work. Eventually, Jeff shared some original music he composed. Not soon after he formed his current band, Run To Sandy. I was very impressed with the talent of the musicians in the band and the writing. I strongly encourage you to check out the band online at www.reverbnation.com/runtosandy. Or catch them live, here in the Philly area. Jeff and I covered many topics. Most of it about music but, sadly, we found ourselves discussing the recent tragedy in Florida. It really hit home as we both have children in local schools. Please give it up for Jeff Sawyer.

Bob McCullough is a very good friend, fraternity brother, big brother and one of the most articulate people I know.

We’ve been getting together for dinner, at the holidays, the last several years. A year ago, Ted Hodgins (episode #4) said I should run with the podcast. So, at this year’s dinner, I asked if Bob would come on for an episode. He was incredibly enthusiastic about the idea. What transpired, since our dinner, was a significant change for Bob. A crossroads. His candor and humor made for a memorable episode which we aptly named, the “How Did We Get Here?” podcast.

Enjoy!

Solo Amigo! I wanted to share some updadates and focus on recent revelations. I had a great discussion with my friend David Trebich who joined me last year to meet President Obama. Funny how a year later and I am still receiving such good vibes for a selfless act. Listen and you’ll have a few special surprises.

So, here’s a little something extra: the first five (5) listeners who correctly identify the Easter Egg, “LINT BALL”, will receive a $10 Amazon Gift Card!

Email me and if you get it correct, you are doing some shopping!

Ted Hodgins is a seemingly everyday joe who works in the communications and entertainment industry. That alone, is not very average. What makes Ted stand out is his long standing commitment to our alma mater, Bloomsburg University of PA. He’s been on an alumni advisory board for the past six years and recently was selected to sit on an exclusive committee to appoint the new president of the university. He also has three children who all attended Bloomsburg. His love for photography and his children’s athletic prowess has made for some memorable moments captured on film (or disk). Ted is Not Your Average Amigo.

What a great time hanging out with Cody Verrett. Cody is an old friend and fraternity brother. He mentioned his work with mobility devices, last Summer, at our annual, memorial golf outing. I was intrigued. Cody has first hand experience with mobility and rehab devices. His mother was diagnosed with a brain tumor, when he was just four, which left her needing rehabilitive care and the use of mobility devices. Cody is now working with a leader in complex rehabilitive/mobility devices. He also works with congress in getting meaningful legislation passed to protect access to complex rehab equipment.  Cody has a great spirit and focus. He’s not your average amigo!

What a great time catching up with Kevin Bennett.

Kevin has such a fascinating story. Having an early music career to almost not going to college, to making life changing leap by moving to Russia, Kevin never ceases to amaze.

His story telling ability and keen wit have kept me entertained and amazed for as long as we’ve known each other.

I had a blast getting caught up with Phil Drucker.

I’ve known Phil for about 14 years. We are neighbors and have forged a close friendship over the years. What made me think of Phil, for the first podcast, was his extensive background in photography. We’ve spent many hours discussing his views and approach to the subject that many struggle with everyday.

Phil’s beautiful work with landscapes is inspiring. He finds amazing imagery in the simplest forms.

Well, I don’t want to steal anyone’s thunder.

Enjoy!
