A highlight from The Mike and Mark Davis Daily Chat - 10/25/23
"The great Richard Roundtree, Shaft, Shaft's Big Score, Shaft in Africa. These were called the Blaxploitation films and it was weird because black people loved them. You know who else loved them? White people. It was the first black action hero. The great Richard Roundtree has passed at 81. I love these movies. I don't know if they were your jam because you were like 11. I don't know. Yeah, I don't know. I kind of remember. Wasn't there Cleopatra Jones? Cleopatra Jones, Pam Greer, Foxy Brown. Absolutely. And that's what makes Tarantino's Jackie Brown, which is an appreciation of that whole genre, quite the masterpiece. So I need to ask my buddy, are you better now? I know we all wanted Jim Jordan. How you feeling if it's Mike Johnson? You know, I'm really fixated on the exchange, the text exchange you and I had where I said most people don't care. And that seemed to shock you. You know, I wonder if people are talking about Mike Johnson over the breakfast table this morning. Who the heck is Mike Johnson? I know. Well, yeah, you know because you're a talk show host and you're paid to know. I know about the obscurity. But that's the disconnect because, you know, I saw you posted on X the other night. Well, you know, here's why I like Beau Schmiel from Wisconsin and I like Mike Johnson a little better than I'm thinking. Nobody cares about any of these people. Just get it done and get it over with. Weren't you? But there's a friend of mine who has a radio show who had quite the righteous conniption fit about 24 hours ago. And it was a high quality conniption fit and it was righteous and it was proper because we didn't get the speaker that you wanted or that I wanted. Are you telling me that speaker that the speakerships not important or that once it gets into folks whose names aren't quite so front of mind that everybody's eyes glaze over? I'm still ticked off. I'm in the middle of the conniption fit. It's this is a clown show and they they've embarrassed themselves. They've totally they've and they've hurt 2024. There's no question about it. Now, the question is how badly how much damage will be done? I'm going to count on the Mark Davis rule about short attention spans and hope that we get over this once we get, you know, Bill Schmiel of Albuquerque to be the speaker. He's about to be very, very he's 10 times more famous this morning than he was yesterday and soon to be even more so. And the other thing he's going to do is it is indeed I mean, who was even running that anybody really had ever heard of? I mean, I guess we had some Pete Sessions national familiarity just beyond the state of Texas. But yeah, it was a lot of folks other than Jim Jordan, who and everybody knew Scalia's, of course, but that seems like a hundred years ago now. And everybody knew Jim Jordan. But nobody knows Mike Johnson. That's right. They're about to. They're about to. But nobody cares. You're trying to make people care. And I'm telling you, I know people I know this audience and I think those people people's eyes are glazing over and they're saying, OK, great. So what is so what is if they don't have familiarity with all that with with Shreveport attorney and the other great thing, former talk show host. We like that anyway, though. But if they do this, Mike Johnson has a talk show in Louisiana. That's correct. Oh, OK. Well, there you go. I love it. What if he's a fisherman? I wonder what he does. What if he goes bowling on Saturday night? Nobody gives a rat's rear end about Mike Johnson. OK, specifically by name, perhaps not. But do we care about having a conservative fighter? Yes. We care about it not being an establishment toady. Are we pleased that it's not Tom Emmer? Yes. Then get over it and well, I'm not. Oh, this is going to be great. I got nothing to get. I got nothing to get over. It's not great that we're still figuring it out. They got to solve it. And when they solve it, we'll turn the page. It'll be fine. Well, of course it will. And that's what I'm saying, that nobody cares. It's not the end of the world. And nobody really cares about any talk show host's analysis of Bill Schmiel versus Mike Johnson. What got to you yesterday? What got to you yesterday? It was a reality. This is weird. This is kind of weird. I guarantee you people are agreeing with me on this. I mean, really, do you think people are sitting around agonizing over Mike Johnson? Not agonizing, but he happens to be the repository of conservative hopes for the House. Today? Exactly. He's number nine. He's about the ninth one on the list. I mean, they're all dropping like flies. This one appears that it's going to succeed. Oh, this one. You said that about Emmer. You said that about everybody else. I said he looked inevitable. Now, here's the thing. I said he looked inevitable as the designee.
The Aloönæ Show
A highlight from S12 E15: Exploring Music, Houston Roots, New Single
"Hello, welcome to The Ohlone Show. I'm your host, John Mielelone. In this episode, we don't have any regulars, because reasons, you know, the same stuff. As for our guest, she's from Pittsburgh and Houston, currently living in North Carolina. She's a songwriter and a performer. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you, Pam Ross. Hello. Hello. So, how's life? Can't complain. Busy. Very, very busy. But going well. Busy in a good way. Fabulous. And have you been up to much recently? Yes. I have an album and I'm releasing one song every two months. So, I just released my fifth single from it on Friday. And it's already doing really well. And playing a lot of shows. You caught me on a night off, actually. So, yeah. Just doing a lot of releasing songs, performing. A lot of different interviews and things like that. Very good. So, what brings you here, exactly? To speak to you? No, I meant in your career. Well, Oh. what brings me to this? Music is what I've always loved to do, really. I've done other things, but everything always comes back to music. Ever since my first memories, that's always what I wanted to do. And I started writing songs when I was really young. I'd just get little beats in my head and I'd start putting words down to them. And eventually, of course, I started playing guitar and started writing songs. And it just kept building from there. Very nice. And how long, exactly, have you been doing this for? Oh, goodness. I have been doing this most of my life, really. So, I'd say since the late 90s. Oh, that's long. Yeah. Most of my life, yeah. Impressive. Are there any music artists you would like to collaborate with someday? Well, right now, actually, I write alone. But sure, there's people who I love, who I'd love to write with someday. I don't know what Dave Grohl is up to. He'd like to get together and jam. I'd certainly love Elton John. If he ever needs any lyrics, I'd love to help him out if Bernie's busy. There's always a lot of people that you love and you've spent your life listening to, like to get together with. That was just a couple. All right. Very good. So, what was life for you growing up? Normal, I guess. When I was young, I lived in Pittsburgh. Suburbia. You know, typical suburbia town, small town. And single parent, just my mom. And I have two sisters and a brother. Just, I don't know. I don't think there's anything extremely abnormal about it. Typical U .S. suburbia, really. All right. That's cool, I guess. This is a question from the top of my head. Have you ever thought about sending mail to Bigfoot? No, I have not thought about sending mail to Bigfoot. I think it's the same problem with Santa Claus. I don't know the exact address and I don't think it would get there. But, you know, he's elusive too. He's not big into contact. He just kind of comes out when he wants to say hi. So, I don't even know if he would answer if I wrote him. Fair enough. I can see that. How much time do you spend on the internet? Far too much. More than I like. But, you know, Facebook, Instagram, you know, all the social media is a necessary evil in the music business. You have to be on it. You have to be doing it. So, I definitely spend a lot more time, a couple hours a day on it. Which I would much rather be playing my guitar and writing, playing keyboards, anything. But it's something you got to do. Very good. Is it better to use shampoo or soap or soap as shampoo? I'm going to go with the shampoo. Yeah, I think it's better for my hair than just regular old soap. Yeah, shampoo and conditioner. Very good. Would you rather have extra fingers or extra toes? I'd go with extra fingers as a musician. You know, I could probably come up with some really cool chord formations on guitar. And imagine what I could do on the keyboard with an extra finger. Oh, yeah. Oh, yes. Very good. That'd be pretty cool. That would be, yeah. Oh, yes. Would you ever try space tourism? No, not at the moment. I don't think I'd make it back safely. And I'm not really big on heights. I don't even really like to fly, period. So, shooting into space is not on the list for me right now. Yeah. There's no little wire holding you up there. You're just up there. So, now I'm going to skip on the flight to space thing right now. All right, fair enough. Who was the last person you talked to? My wife. Now, on person or on the internet? Because the last person I talked to literally would be on the internet. And that would be my manager, Michael Stover. Last person I talked to on person was probably my wife. Oh, okay. That makes sense, kind of. Yeah. Would you rather speak all languages or talk to animals? I want to talk to the animals. I have a dog and two cats and I wonder what the heck they're thinking sometimes. I'm watching a squirrel out my window right now. What the heck's he thinking? I'd like to talk to the animals. Ah, very good. What improved your life quality so much you wish you did it sooner? Probably Hmm. got back into music. I quit for a little bit. So, I would say I wish I wouldn't have taken that couple year lull and got back into it a little bit sooner. Because I felt a whole lot better once I got back into it. Ah, okay. If your mind was an island, what would it look like? Oh goodness. It'd probably be a massive jungle. It'd have all kinds of crazy trees and shit growing in it. It'd be crazy. It'd be a mess. Yes, we've all been there. I'm constantly thinking. My mind's always racing. It'd be an overgrown kind of jungle island. Yeah. What is your favorite life hack? Life hack? Describe life hack a little better for me. Alright then. So, life hack is something that is a little cheat code like in a video game that just makes your life a whole lot easier. You do it once, so simply, and then boom! Your life is much more convenient than it is already. I don't like that. You mean like turning on the A .C. from my bed? I love doing that. Turning the A .C. up and down from not having to get up and do that in the middle of the night. Oh, okay. That's a pretty good life hack. It's awesome, actually. You wake up, you're warm. Just reach over, grab your phone, turn it down. It's beautiful. Ah, yes. What is something popular now, but in five years, everyone will look back? Well, everyone will look back on and be embarrassed they liked it. Oh, you know, I'm afraid to say because right now it's popular and people are going to be like, What did she just say? Did she just say that? And freak out. It might actually happen at some point. Yeah, I'm thinking rapping and country music. Okay. I think it's already kind of starting to decline a little bit. But yeah, I think country music is kind of moving back more towards its rootsy side, 90s side. So I'm thinking it's kind of something that people are going to look back on maybe and be like, Huh? Ah, okay. But I could be wrong. I could be wrong. It could be worse. That is all. What is the most comfortable piece of clothing you own? Sweatpants. Sweat shorts, either or, depending on the weather. Definitely. Sweat shorts right now. Ah, yes. They're good. Very comfortable, too. As they should be. Would you consider yourself to be an extrovert or an introvert? I'm probably more of an extrovert. As I get older, I kind of, you know, don't mind being alone so much. Maybe I get a little more introverted. But yeah, I love being out there on stage and playing and meeting people. Ah, nice. Would you rather never age physically or never age mentally? Well, I don't think it's good to not age mentally. I think it's a good thing that we start thinking a little more rational as we get older. So I'm going to have to nix that one and go with the other. Okay. If you could get an exotic pet, any animal at all, what kind of companion would you like to have? I want an elephant. I love elephants. I just think they're really cool. They have great memories, they have emotions, they actually cry. Oh. I never knew that. Yes, they do. They actually shed tears and cry whenever they're sad. I never thought of it that way. What do you disagree with most frequently? Well, I meet a lot of different people, so what I most often probably disagree with people is something political. But I don't want to talk about it or say anything about it because I keep those things to myself. Okay, fair enough. What could you give a 40 -minute presentation on without any preparation? Songwriting. Ah, that's a good one. As long as I don't run out of material, but I could definitely talk for a while on that. I'm actually giving a talk on that in July at a film festival. Oh, that's convenient. Yes. Which reminds me, thank you, I do have to write some stuff down. I've been working on that. I've got a 30 -minute presentation to do. Ah, yes. Well, convenience. If someone wrote a book about you, what do you think its title would be? Hmm, man. I'm not sure on that. Let me try to think here for a minute. I don't know. Honestly, I don't know. You caught me on that one. Okay, that's cool. There's always time for reflection. Yes, I'll keep it in the back of my head. Yes, very good. What should they teach in high school, but they don't? Hmm. Well, I'd like to say common sense, but when we're in high school, we're not ready for that course anyways. probably So, something financial. How to deal with your finances whenever you leave home. I know that for something. I was kind of like that. I'm like, ah, money, who cares? You know, when you're young. So probably, I think when we're young, we probably need to learn how to handle our money better. Yeah, I agree. There's always come a point that you have to use money wisely, or else who knows what's going to happen. What kind of music do you often listen to? A wide variety. Like, I can't say I listen to one particular genre over another. I listen to a lot of old, you know, older rock, roots rock, newer rock, you know, stuff that's still coming out today. A lot of country music. More so, I would say, the older, like, 90s and early 2000s, but really all decades of country music. I like blues. So, I really don't have one particular type that I stick with, and that comes out a lot whenever I write, because I'm always listening to different styles of music. Okay. It's nice to have a wide variety, just like myself. Yeah. Yeah. What is your favorite season? Fall. Ah. Well, you know, it was always fall because in Houston, it's really hot. And I like it hot. I'm not complaining. I like it hot. I lived on the water. But when it got to be August, you know, after like a couple months of 100 degree plus weather, you're like, okay, I'm a little tired of this. It starts kind of wearing on you, especially, you know, I like to go running. So, it's 105, 110 out every day. So, when you get to September, you start getting a little break in the weather, and then there's football and, you know, Halloween's coming up. So, there's a lot of things to look forward to. That's why I always liked fall. But now that I'm living in North Carolina, fall is just starting to represent cold weather to me. I don't like cold weather. Ah. So, it's lost a little of its pizzazz living further up north, but I still love fall. Yeah, me too. What takes a lot of time to master, but it's definitely worth it? Well, for me, I say patience. It takes a lot of work. Maybe that comes naturally for some people, but I think for most of us, it takes a lot, a lot of work to be patient. Yes, absolutely. What show, actually, if you had a song for every time you entered the room, what song would that be? Oh, goodness. I have no idea. I really don't know. I don't know. That's like one of those, I'll have to get back to you on that and think about that for a while. That's all right. That's cool. Well, besides where you are now, if you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be? Anywhere in the world that I could live. It's hard to answer because there's a lot of places I haven't been that I might really want to live at, but right now, I'd say maybe back home in Houston, down in the water. Yes, down in the water. The nice hot, sizzling weather. Yep, yes. I miss the water. I'm definitely an ocean person. Oh, okay. Intriguing. All right, this is another question that just, bam, just right in my face. Okay, let's do it. All right then. So, have you ever heard of a different, do you know what the bourgeoisie is? Nope. Okay, that's interesting. So there are two kinds of bourgeoisie's. There's the one definition a lot of people know of, which is like the rich, the upper class kind of people. But then there's the other kind of bourgeoisie, which is the bird. The bird? Yes, the bird. Okay. And it's like a flock in a crowd, observing your every move. It's like big brothers watching you. Ah, okay. So yeah, have you ever thought at some point until now? Have you ever thought about... Have you ever thought about the bourgeoisie as in the bird up until now? Nope. Well, now you know. I do. I am a more enriched person. Thank you. You're welcome. If your life was a meal, what kind of meal would it be? Let's go back to the song about when I walk in a room. Okay. So what song would it be? We'll do Barroom Blitz. I don't remember who wrote that, but Barroom Blitz. Ah, very good. It just popped into my head. All right, cool, cool. So if your life was a meal, what kind of meal would it be? I'm not going to say. Is it a bit touchy, a bit triggery kind of? I'm really not sure what to say about that. That's all. Okay, that's cool. I'm actually like that most of the time. There's always a question. I don't know how to answer it because my mind is blank. How many countries have you been to? I think only three, really. Yeah, three. I've been all over the United States, but as far as actually leaving the country, I'd say about three. Ah, all right then. Do you have any pets? Yes, a dog and two cats. Oh, that's nice. If life is a game, like some people say, what are some of the rules of the game? So Hmm. we're making up rules to a game. Oh, life's a game. What do you think are some of the rules? Let's make up some rules. All right. Hmm. Well, the rules that we're supposed to have, you know, like, you know, trying to compare it to Monopoly, I think, trying to come up with rules like we have in Monopoly. Okay, that's interesting. You know, speeding, you lose $200. Oh, dear. That's unfortunate. Yeah, things like that. I guess that's kind of what I think of. All right. So I think I would say the rules to this game is you must always be chill. You've got to stay calm because you never know if things are going to just, bam, right in your face. Yes. There's always some kind of surprises somehow. So, yeah. Yeah, I would go along with that. You have an open mind. I like the chilled part. You've got to take chances. Yes. Seize the opportunity. Yes. Because eventually, once it's too late, it's too late. Life will pass you by. The game will pass you by. Oh, yes, indeed. I think that's pretty much it, really. It's as easy as that, honestly. All righty. Yes. Well, thank you for those crazy questions. Those were definitely... Yes. You're welcome. But it was cool, though. No idea what was coming. Very unique questions. I enjoyed it. Yes, me too. It was great having you on, Pam, talking about your music career and your next journey, your next chapter. And hopefully, there's much more yet to come. There is. I can assure you of that. Yes, absolutely. And until next time, stay tuned for more.

Elizabeth's Birth Story: Offering Up the Intensity of Labor As a Prayer
"It's beautiful when we can make labor a prayer because I think it's one of the most intense physical experiences most people will ever go through. Like, you know, we most likely will never be physically martyred in our lives. I mean, some will, but most won't. But a lot of women will experience labor and it's so beautiful to be able to like offer up the intensity of that. Absolutely, absolutely. And I was using the made for this birth app where they have the rosary for labor and delivery. It was so beautiful to unite my labor as a prayer to all of the intentions that I had asked for and all the intentions of our life. Even though I was able to visualize and deep breathe without pain, still the intensity is something to offer up. And at transition, it was difficult to kind of opt out of that pain. So I did feel some at that point. Just making labor into a prayer is so extremely powerful. So let's see. Yeah, so I labored for a while and then I kind of lost track of time. I went into labor land, which I'm sure you know about it. It's a real place. It's a real place. Labor land is La La Land and you have no idea what time it is and you have no idea what was happening, but you're just concentrating and your mind is on birth. That is it. But I think I remember everything getting really intense and me not able to visualize anymore totally all of the 100 % of the pain out. So at that point, I thought to myself, I'm in transition. I must be in transition because this is the max amount that I would be able to take. Wow, yeah. Yeah, so I thought that and then I hear in the background, this is kind of funny, I hear Luis ask my doula Maren, he says, how much longer do you think we have? Is she in transition? And Maren's like, no, no, no, she's not in transition because I was not making a sound. I was still just peacefully laboring and so I started having some noises at that point because I was actually trying, I couldn't talk, it was too intense to talk, but I was trying to basically signal that, no, I am going through transition for sure. I heard that and yes, I am. Yes, I am. Please help. And so I had phones on me, Luis, Maren and Pam was filling up the birth pool in the background and I just kept being like, is it done yet? Is it done yet? Is it ready? Because I knew this baby was about to be born. So transition was only maybe 10 minutes. Maybe 10 minutes. I went through really fast transition because I was standing up and the gravity pulling Therese down in me was very intense. It was a lot. So I was leaning against the dresser. I was leaning against Luis, but he got really hungry and had the leaves. Then I started using the dresser to lean against and at that point, I started feeling her descend like really low, really low and when I would swing my hips one way, it would be way more intense than the other way. So I was swinging the other way because I didn't want to deal with that. I was not brave enough yet. I had to take a few contractions like that to get brave enough to put my hips the right way because I knew as soon as I did that she was going to come. She was going to come. It's so amazing when you have an unmedicated birth that you're able to tune into your body so much that you know hey, if I just move my hips to the left then my baby's going to come down. Yeah, and it doesn't it feels like it doesn't make sense why do I know the things I know, but I do and if you trust yourself and your motherly intuition, you just become this goddess of birth. You just become a super empowered woman because we're made for this. We are totally made to do this. I knew when I was in transition I knew what was happening I knew when she was descending I never had a cervical check. I asked to not have any because I trusted my body would do what it needed to do

What Happened to Pamela Anderson's Face?
"Did you see the interview the other day Pamela Anderson and a new husband, Dan hey Hearst? Schmuck, Dan, hayhurst, who left his wife in three kids to one from building pants deck to fucking the former Baywatch babe. All his wife and kids had no idea. I mean, his wife had dinner with Pam. They became friendly. And this asshole decides to stop. I mean, things like that can happen. I'm sure that marriage wasn't good in some capacity. But he really looks like an asshole on top of looking like an asshole physically. Now he looks that way more in a broader sense. But I watched this video of an interview they did. Some British show called loose women, which that's kind of funny in itself, to be interviewing Pam Anderson, a show called loose women. And they call her up and she's in bed. She and Dan answer the phone while under the covers, which, by the way, John Lennon and Yoko Ono did this S.W.A.T. 40 something years ago. 50, maybe. Come up with something new, Pam. It just, you know, the whole thing of being in bed with your new husband, you're 6th fucking husband. It's getting tiresome. And I didn't know it was Pam Anderson at first. I thought they were interviewing dame Judi Dench. That's what Pam is turning into. I mean, I don't know if that's her face without makeup or if this is just what she settled on with cosmetic procedures. I have no idea what option is saddest. But ladies, you got to stop injecting bullshit into your cheek into your cheekbones. It looks like you got two hamburger buns below your eyeballs. Do you think men think that your natural look? You need to know, you don't look like you're younger, you look like someone who does a lot of cosmetic

Pamela Anderson 'Won't Be Watching' Hulu's 'Pam & Tommy'
"Are you watching the Hulu series, Pam and Tommy? Based on the famous sex tape. You know, when I got that sex tape, the first guy who wanted to see it was my friend, Kevin, who was gay. We called Kevin and gay Kevin. He's since passed which sucks because he was the best friend in the world. But he wanted to see the sex tape, and I didn't really understand that, but then I thought, well, why wouldn't a gay guy want to see Tommy Lee's big dick? You know, I get it. And by the way, I never got to tape back. But if you watching this, this is a one stop shop for an aggressively sexy and deeply iconic mid 90s scene. But not everybody likes it. It turns out Pamela Anderson doesn't want to see it. And it was made very clear early on that Pam isn't exactly thrilled about Hulu, turning her illegal sex tape into a hit television series. And it sounds like she hasn't changed her mind one day because according to sources who spoke to people that I know, Pam still believe it a lot. Pam still isn't past the trauma of what happened when that sex tape got stolen. A lot of us think it didn't get stolen. A lot of us think that they released it on purpose so they can get famous or more famous. I still believe
Country Music Success Stories
"pam" Discussed on Country Music Success Stories
"Own canoe. I now, from where you sit, Pam, Lewis, what does success mean to you? To me, good health is the most important thing. Haven't people that respect me hopefully or don't hate my guts and I just have a great really good team around me. I don't take it for granted any of this for granted. Let's say that a young artist walks through your doors, wants to work with you. What's the number one piece of advice you would give to a young artist? They have to want it more than I do for them. Fill in the blank. The key to my success in country music has been. Start by making your bed and get up in the morning and just keep showing up. And if you just keep showing up, good things happen. And just don't lose faith. And I will say this about everybody who wants to get into the music industry. Do anything else but and if you get rid of every other option and there's no other thing that you can do to follow your bliss, if you will, then do it. Hi, I'm JC Don valeris, your music city mentor. Sitting down with a woman like Pam Lewis, who really has shaped the careers of so many artists, was such an interesting and informative experience. Whenever I have the chance to talk to someone like Pam, I'm always curious about what kind of advice they can pass on to young artists. I have to say that the answer I got from Pam was unlike any other, but it was also probably one of the most honest. I think it's important to start early because you want to be branding yourself consistently. And I've had clients come to me and they've spent their money on production. They've spent the money on their video. They spent money on a wardrobe, and they still don't know who they are. We have to try to fix what they've done. Or they've already been kind of ripped off. And I hate to say that but that's sort of a skanky business. It's not pure as driven snow. So I think it's important to have people around you who are helping you find your voice and helping you stay on track. I would say that there's a lot of parallels between the French wine industry and the country music industry. The French wine industry venters will cut back the vines, the very delicate vines that will cut them back because they want the vine to supper to produce the best grapes. And I would say that there is a part of this town that wants you to suffer a little bit. You got to pay your dues.

Near Death Experiences
"To be clear. Pam's heart and brain were both stopped. She was d- di dead. The plan was when the surgery was finished. They would warm pam's body up to regular alive person temperature and then do the shock paddle thingies to restart her heart like jumping a dead car engine. There were molded ear. Buds in pants ears playing clicks decimal level of a jackhammer or jet. Engine taking off that way. If any part of pam's brain registered the sound it would appear on the monitor and they would know that brain activity was not all the way dead and look. I'm no brain surgeon. So i don't know what happens when the patient you're working on is supposed to be dead. And then isn't like they're about to cut out the aneurysm. And then all the sudden the monitor shows brain activity. What do you do be like. I guess she's not dead enough. Why anyone goes into. This line of work is beyond me. But i applaud you as pam later reports as the surgery is beginning pam. Dear lifeless pam. Here's the drill. Turn on its buzz coming out like a natural d. The doctor or nurse by her legs reported that the artery was too small. I don't know if you know this but apparently they go through your legs to get to your brain during surgery. I may have mentioned before that. I'm not a surgeon. Another doctor says to try the other leg pam then says she popped out of herself through her had she could see twenty doctors in the room which seems like an immense number of people. But i don't know how brain surgery works. She looked down on the scene and could see the tray with the drill. Bits and the drill itself which she said looked like the handle of her electric toothbrush. That's when she was pulled toward the bright white light as she stepped into the light. Her dead grandmother greeted her pam wondered to herself if she deserve to be there. She wasn't a perfect person. She thought i'm not sure how she knew where there was. But i imagine if you're dead and you're walking toward a bright light. It's a good guests. You're in heaven and her grandmother said as a child. We expected that you would spill your milk. It's the manor which you clean it up. That gives us cause for pride

"The last thing. I want to talk about pam before we wrap up here is just the lessons you've learned along the way and your career change journey and one of the things you mentioned to me when we first connected is that you and only you can make the change that you seek and that no one else is gonna do that for your hand it to you on a silver platter. What did you mean by that. It would have been super easy for me to keep doing marketing. It was profitable. I could do it. I knew it well. From my perspective gutsiest move was to pick up and totally change because it was completely like jarring to my confidence initially at least my confidence and my resiliency and but at the end of the day nobody was going to say. Oh pam you change and do this. Here's what you should. Here's the plan. Here's the blueprint. I myself was the only one that was going to be able to make that change for myself. Because i think everybody has to take that step back in evaluate who they are what they are destined to be in what calls them. What fills them and everybody. That's going to be different. I know quite a few career changes in my life and most of them would probably tell you that was the best movie that they could ever made and they thank god that they took the risk and persevered through the uncertainty to get to that place. I have definitely discovered that having more experiences. Not necessarily make you a better person. Make you a better whatever in this case nurse. Even the new guy can have the better idea in any thing you're doing in life.

She becomes pregnant in her early twenties and winds up in a home in ireland outside of cork a mother and baby home. Run by nuns. Who force her to give up her daughter kate for adoption and so the book is the story of these three women. And how e phi is continuing to look for roseline who disappears and kate is looking for roseline. She's looking for birth mother. And it's this incredibly powerful story about mothers and daughters and also an interesting and really heartbreaking. Look at what was happening in ireland at the time that really went on for about one hundred years where the catholic church ran the. They were like prisons for women who were in trouble in some in some way and they forced women to change their names and to give up their babies. And it's an incredibly heartbreaking walk at that legacy of secrecy.

"Mr richard montagnier. Welcome to come thank you. Thank you a pleasure to be excited about this interview. You have no thank you. i'm happy. I'm happy war and they my friend. Linda garcia says. Hi okay i will i will. I told we've been talking about this interview for a long time because you've been on my wishlist for a long time and so this is like amazing. That's happening poker appreciate you know for for years. We were very private. You may not see my. Can you be private when you invented hard shoes. But we we. Were you know we. I just tried to put out the very minimal but you know it was time you know just felt it's time to kind of take the covers off. Let people know you are yeah. I'm curious. why were you private. I had everything i want had the money i wanted i. I wasn't looking for any fame or or anything like that. And you know me and my wife would just love and life and just kept my nose clean and it was always about other people. It was always about the brand. It was always about inspiring other people. It was never about you know. I think that's one of the reasons. I became successful because i never made it about myself. I was always careful. Just a personal thing. That crosses line where you know. Because i knew like sometimes i'd see people it's like it's not even about the product anymore. It's about you you know. I never wanted to be that. Individ- i guess as a latino mexican grandma momma raised me up to date as humble as you possibly can. I don't know if that's a good thing or not. I was gonna ask that. Do you think that's a good thing it was for me. But today's latino the is a young latina that are coming up. I feel that. I hold him something in. That's to learn by my mistakes. That's why i wrote the book. Because there's a lot of mistakes that i've made it was. It was always about everybody else. I am so blessed that you know. I retired a couple years ago. I'm just so blessed that things worked out for me financially i. i've been a hustler my whole life. I did some great moves with my finances. Investing but i said like this had i not done that. I'd be collecting social security today. And that's the thing right thinking open. I better tell themes you know. Take care of yourself. Make sure that your financially secure you know. I don't always expect it because you did something great. You know that that's gonna come back. And that's the reason i'm doing. A lot of children not speak at universities across the country not making sure that dealt all the young people. 'cause my generation was you know your guy at the be quiet. Be respectful and i did but again i had other things that worked out for me but you know i have three boys. I have five grandchildren. Downtown go get what belongs to you. Go get weed belongs to you. I love this. And i mean i have the book here and look at all my all my notes from all the questions that i want to ask that. I'm sure we'll get to have of that. But hey so you're talking about being humble and we're gonna take back to little richard because this is how we hear him bump. But i do want to explore the space of being humble because even though we have this gomez like behold ball and like. Put your head down to get to work. I think and you share it in the book.

"Yeah i invite you to make your own opinion about this and really out just question. It think about why. Why is this coming out now. Literally as richard is promoting his book. That's the first thing that i thought about so again. The interview happened before. All of this controversy came out. Otherwise i frankly would have asked him but we had already talked so and then. I had opportunity to draw my own conclusions. Read the things. And i had read the book already and so look. I invite you to utilize our critical thinking and deductor your conclusion. I'm choosing to believe richard. Because i don't know if somebody would have made a whole career out of a story that's not true and also he's cool like we had a really fun time during the interview. We talked about why he kept his life private for a long time and again listen to this interview. Not knowing that the controversial article came a week after because we didn't know what we know now or whatever so he talked about this. We also talked about the cookie story and a story that is in his book that is super moving and he can like expanded on this story. Which was awesome. Growing up latino in the sixties and how that was very different from what it is now which we of course already know the hot cheetos story and how many times. He had to test the recipe and how things kind of happened. We talked about his wife. Judy and how she's been one of the biggest influences rocks all of the above things to help his career and his drive and determination we also talk about how he decided to begin practicing the future hen and how he started acting as that future him that he knew he could be which is very powerful. If you are looking for that next level if you're looking to grow whether it's your business or your career and this part of the conversation. I hope it really helps you. Also talk about habits those which he cultivated throughout the years. We played a fun intuition game. So i'm really excited for. You're listening to this one. Because he was he was game. And i was like. Do you want to play. He's like yeah play and so then what came out of that game was really cool. He shares about hood leadership and we on the ethanol. Aji of words. If you know anything about me. I always explore the root of the words especially in english. Because it's a language that's combined with other languages and different kinds of linguistical principles and for me. When i figure out the meaning of a word i really go back into. Where does that word come from. And why do we use it this way and it turns out. Richard is also a student etymology of words. So we got a little bit on words and how it truly helps understand definition and the meaning that we give to certain words. He shared his of pioneer settler and purposeful leader. And look if you haven't noticed. This is by far on my top ten favorite interviews that i've ever done on the show because of so many things because he truly shared a lot of wisdom. He truly was oban about all the questions that i asked and i mean because he's a hot cheeto guy you wanna listen see. My here's my conversation with. Richard.

Thank you for your work. I love your your style your 'lustration i really enjoyed finding out that you actually do. Use the watercolors. What are hard. I could never do when i tried. I don't actually use watercolor techniques. Did it oh yeah actually use. That went to wider. I think who are much of a perfectionist to just let it be free the way it's supposed to be. Yes that's why couldn't do it sidebar kind of when i was in painting class we when we did oils. My teacher was like this is an acrylic paint. Like what are you doing. And i'm like because. I can't like i remember. My classmate was literally like blobs of like you know because oil and knew she was literally like it was just an. I'm like ooh. I know not doesn't work in to be nice and tidy and needs to be like smooth and you know and it was argument that yeah so like watercolors were too messy so i went to use wash because it's a little bit more slowly. Not quite relics are now my fave. Because acrylics are too restrictive for me. I felt the same way yet. Heavy and like i do like how a gifts and like i miss a recovering progressive or but a really love about oils. Is that it it. It's like a really long process. I mean it takes. How many hours days to dry. So i would. I would leave. Come back in the paint would be like still like workable you know with oils with wash. It's like a quicker process. But not quite as like lose like watercolors. So when i saw that you like like respect i probably use them. Were gouache actually. If i'm being honest yet. I like that. I like that affect not intensity of colored. I love actually yeah. I totally relate to every about the different meetings. Will you know what you give me.

"I feel like we know like logically when you think about it. It's like of course. History is connected but really connecting the story as it happened. It's really powerful so happy you enter the people and then you you're like okay. This is this is a tv show. This is tv series. You get the fire to share these stories. When does jennifer come into play. So as soon as ellen and sandra said. This is a good idea. Then i asked jennifer to participate. Jennifer is family in our family have been friends for a long time. And she said yes and then she got scooped up into the documentary in the coffee table book chapters the whole lot faster and she continued to work on this project. This project took longer. Because you know the the decision of how to research who might be in then how to edit curate who might be who from the revolutionary period who from the period of antipasta. Who get who. Who in my. Dna gives mill wind under my wings. Some make me understand that. I can do this. And then who from the legacy period. You know who for whom these women are. The revolution were inspiration and so all of that took a while and editing. There are lots of more people we have included but we wanted for the book to be balanced not too many of the stories to everybody to be a journalist or not everybody to be a a saint you know so we balance out and then jennifer was particular about you know making sure. The context in the interpretation of the revolution was perfect and then we spent a whole lot of time collaborate with each other about who should write about each of our subjects once. We had determined who we were going to feature who should write the chapter or the essay about that person and one of the things that we agreed on super super early was that we would ask. The person who knew are subject the best who had the greatest passion about her and if they were a literary writer so be it if they were a scholar so be it if they were a reporter or so be it so we have. The genia is mixed. Well you know what. That's revolutionary we didn't even know it. But that's revolutionary. You've you pick up an anthology of essays. They're all scholarly are they're all literary are they're all reportage. We looked around for publisher. Who would know what to do with it because we were adamant that this is how it had to be an good old trinity university. Press wrap their arms around it and made it happen. We're so happy about that. They really embraced all the revolutionary aspects. Like what you were talking about you know. We have a binational anthology subjects for from texas in mexico authors from texas authors from mexico. And we want you know it. It would be what we wanted it to be if it wasn't a bi-national volume so that's a revolutionary thing too. I think that. I don't think that's are easy to find agreed. And i think it's awesome that you wanted to honor. Even the writing of whoever was going to write about that person so jennifer. You're the historian so now tell us your version of how this happened.

What's your heritage. I haven't done my ancestry you. But i'm pretty sure. One hundred percent anglo american scottish and irish can jennifer and i m primarily northern european anglo so. My family is english irish french. Lithuanian and I very much identify with my family. That came to texas in the late nineteenth century and settled near kaufman texas. I other family who came during the republic of texas periods. We've been in texas for a really long time but not as long as the people who started out here. The doesn't that you know okay. Typically i interview let next to people of color so this is gonna be fun to explore your history and your work because so sick about the book. Revolutionary women of texas and mexico so first. Let's tell us what your role in the creation of this book. So i conceived the book and took it to a couple of people who have helped me on other creative journeys the ellen real clear and sandra cisneros and floated the idea with them. They love the idea in pretty soon after that way jennifer to be the historian home on the project. They want know the story on how the book idea came up. Yeah of course. I am not latino but my children are misty. Sel and my husband is latino mexican american and was born in san antonio which which i was not and one day in two thousand nine i was in a folk art shopping obsessed with art Make up in bernie. Texas emma gentleman approached me in handed me a copy of an essay. He had written about the impact of the mexican revolution on texas and the united states. As a whole and i read it and i was amazed by by what he posited in his essay. Basically said an entire demographics soon. Nami came north from mexico during the mexican revolution. As people needed to escape the brutality in chaos of what was going on maybe upwards of a million people and they settled mostly along the border land and many of them in texas and in our home of san antonio and i was not shocked by what he said. I was shocked. By the fact that we would know that if it was true My husband is very aware of of his heritage We try to teach our kids about where they came from with their roots are and who they are and we had never heard this and it was like. I don't know because we've never heard this ensure leave we have. It was truly would hurt it. We decided to test the proposition so there was a mexican restaurant down the street from us where we had breakfast like three times a week and lots and lots of our friends did to movers and shakers and politicos in poets and leaders of nonprofits. It was just kind of a magnet at breakfast time for meetings and things so we said well. Let's go to your door. Let's set up in a booth and we'll just ambush people as they come in. And we'll ask him dude. You have an ancestor. Who came to san antonio during the mexican revolution. If what this fellow says is true we ought to get quite a few yeses.

So i'm not even going to give you any spoilers because i want you to listen to the episode but i really had a lot of talking to them now as i listen to the episode i noticed that uses the word mistake so and i'm not sure how do i feel about it because that word comes from classism and maybe eight need to explore that word a little more as religion. I was like oh that felt some kind of way. Lemon of you feel the same. I also asked them what sparked curiosity to create their book. Because i mean how does one come up with the idea for the books. We talked about that how history is written by men and why it is so important for history to be rewritten by women. We talk about the creation of the book long.

I'm like, okay, so there's people that wears a mask. They wear masks and something else is behind that mask. And you just now need to. So maybe more cautious and definitely patient and careful in hearing what people say and watch what they do. And understand what they want from me, you know, for always want a lot from me, fewer people do more for me than I do. And so it's just humbling when those that like, oh, I don't want you to just give. I want to give two. 100%.

Who verbally abused constantly decrypted. She said that. Betsy was terrified of her husband. Never wanted to return home. She claimed that. Betsy hit invited and her that russ once held a pillow face and partially suffocated her telling her that. That's what it would feel like when she died. Pam said that. Betsy had lots of affairs with other men and was aware that russ was having affairs as well on the witness stand. Pam testified that the night of the murder. That's going to tell russ that she was willing to leave him and move in with her family and she was scared of how he was going to react. Most about these other friends and family testified the exact opposite. Russell's the doting loving husband shirley had their ups and downs and there were tumultuous times. But that's he was happy and processing her impending death with her family. Pam hop was more convincing than betsy. Ferrier's own family coupled with the fact that one of betsy fairy is friends from church. Sondra mcclanahan said that she was uncomfortable around russ because she found rude and derogatory that they were christians and he apparently was a little hard on them for for their christian religion. So do to those things. The narrative stock both sides. Were aware that pam hub had become the sole beneficiary to betsy one hundred and fifty thousand dollar life insurance policy but that fact actually never made it to trial. The defense tried to get it introduced for the prosecution objected and the judge presiding over the trial agreed. You see introducing the beneficiary change would have opened the case up to a new suspect and a brand new motive. Police knew this too. In fact a major case squad detective. He was prepping for the trial. Told pam hub that it looked bad for her to be holding. Betsy ferrier's life insurance money. He said hey. You should put that in a trust fund for betsy daughters in order to look less suspicious and court records..
