Attorney Brad Edwards & His Take Down of Jeffrey Epstein

It’s been 4 years since I spoke with attorney Bradley J. Edwards, who has represented approximately 70 of Epstein’s victims, about his 10 year pursuit of Jeffrey Epstein as detailed in his book, Relentless Pursuit: My Fight For the Victims of Jeffrey Epstein.

It’s been 5 years since Epstein’s death in that jail cell while awaiting trial for sexually abusing dozens of underage girls; for rape and molestation of minors,  preying on girls that had difficult home lives, promising education, modeling and work opportunities. Epstein groomed these girls and trafficked them.

Will the many influential and powerful individuals that have been identified as frequent visitors to Epsteins private island, “Little St. James”,  ever be held accountable or brought to justice? Or does the power, corruption and our own government agencies continue to protect them as they protected Jeffrey Epstein and his associates for all those years.

Live To 100: Secrets of the Blue Zones

Yes, people really do live to 100. 

The habits, diets and lifestyles of the centenarians featured in “Live To 100: Secrets of the Blue Zones” streaming on Netflix, are very similar.  If you could live to 100, what would you want that to look like; would you be as active and sharp minded as you are today? 

I encourage you to check out Blue Zones

It will be time well spent.

Bill “Rip City” Schonely | 1929 – 2023

Bill Schonely, the legendary Portland Trail Blazers original broadcaster who coined the iconic phrase “Rip City”,  passed away on January 21st, 2023.  He was 93.  

In 2014, I had the pleasure of meeting Bill Schonely and his lovely wife, Dottie, at a broadcasting event here in Central Oregon.  Bill was wearing that 1977 NBA Championship ring and he even allowed me try it on. (..it’s heavy!)  

It was after our initial meeting, that Mr. Schonely granted me a one-on-one interview of which I am forever grateful. 

 

 

Sam Quinones | THE LEAST OF US: True Tales of America and Hope in the Time of Fentanyl and Meth

“The truth is that you just don’t survive on the street anymore. You could survive when heroin or cocaine was the drug, even when crack was the drug, but that is no longer the case. The problem now is that the drugs that are out there now are so potent and prevalent that they are almost anchoring people to the street just as they kill them.” – Sam Quinones

New York Times bestselling author, investigative journalist and NBCC Winner, Sam Quinones, joins me to discuss his groundbreaking book, THE LEAST OF US: TRUE TALES OF AMERICA AND HOPE IN THE TIME OF FENTANYL AND METH.

On December 20, 2022, The U.S. Department of Justice, Drug Enforcement Administration announced the seizure of over 50.6 million fentanyl-laced, fake prescription pills and more than 10,000 pounds of fentanyl powder this calendar year.  The DEA laboratory estimates that these seizures represent more than 379 million potentially deadly doses of fentanyl.
