When a young Eva Kollisch arrives as a refugee in New York in 1940, she finds a community among socialists who share her values and idealism. She soon discovers ‘the cause’ isn’t as idyllic as it seems. Little does she know this is the beginning of a lifelong commitment to activism and her determination to create radical change in ways that include belonging, love and one's full self. In addition to Eva Kollisch’s memoirs Girl in Movement (2000) and The Ground Under My Feet (2014), LBI’s collections include an oral history interview with Eva conducted in 2014 and the papers of Eva’s mother, poet Margarete Kolllisch, which document Eva’s childhood experience on the Kindertransport.

Executive Producers include Katrina Onstad, Stuart Coxe, and Bernie Blum. Senior Producer is Debbie Pacheco. Associate Producers are Hailey Choi and Emily Morantz. Research and translation by Isabella Kempf. Sound design and audio mix by Philip Wilson, with help from Cameron McIver. Theme music by Oliver Wickham. Voice acting by Natalia Bushnik.

Reaction to the previous episode was that I veer into odd tangents and in this episode I correct that. I also respond to my comedian friend who says I demeaned him in 113, that the Saudi Princess totally deserved to be called a ____ and he is not the psychopath I portayed him to be. Well, let's discuss that. Would at least one of the million monkeys in a room with a million typewriters come up with Shakespeare, as the famous adage claims? I explain why that's doubtful and how it would be different if they used Bonobos. Does everyone have their own version of the truth? Frozen embryos are humans in Alabama now-what's next if we allow religion to be politics and how that could affect the tax code? I help a client decide if he should get out of a relationship with a drunken big mouth. AND you just won't believe what famous actor is my new patient, coming to me, looking for help.

OK, this might be the strangest episode yet. I've either lost my mind or figured out the real reason Trump won. Either way, this one's unique. Also, some of you wondered if you didn't like the Super Bowl half time show does that make you a racist. Is fantasy oxygen for the psyche and the key to our well being? Does religion provide that daily dose of the fantastic and minus religion do we seek fantasy elsewhere in a secular world? Why are there roller coasters on cruise ships? If I went to a Renaissance Festival dressed as Mr. Spock would that be a cruel joke on the maidens faire and scurvy knaves? Does it make sense to talk about "The Odyssey" and "Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Killer" in the same paragraph? And it's all over in under 20 minutes. SUBSCRIBE and THRIVE!!!!…
Do you need to be dirty to be relevant in today's media climate? I attempt to straddle the clean/dirty divide. Does anybody fall for Artificial Intelligence online sex come ons? Did AI Lisa really make those bikini pictures "just for" me? Are conservatives more likely to fall for AI falsehoods? How does the Left fight back for the next four years? A client who wants to gift money to just his family members who are not homophobes (others are) asks for help. I offer a unique solution. Do the ends ever justify the means? Will the murderer who killed the health insurance CEO ever be seen as a folk hero? Why are "Star Wars," "High Noon," "Ghandi," and Switzerland in my response? Is the weight loss drug Wegovy the answer to the question "Is big government the answer?" All this and more in just 20 minutes. You've done worse things with your time. Subscribe and THRIVE!!!!…
Want to make some money? My 2025 predictions for the new year come with a money back guarantee. Want to know what insanity Trump says in his inauguration speech? I've seen the future and share it with you. I also help a client who doesn't want to go back to the office as his company is demanding. Should he quit if they don't let him telecommute? Are small towns really safer? Why do some people in small towns freak out? What does rural Illinois in January have in common with the moon? AI can do some impressive things but I still know it's the devil in disguise and will end human creativity if we use it. I describe why the human creative spirit should never be taken out of the equation and the best example in human history of how we get it right. Would AI ever create the Beatles or even the Monkees or even Beatlemania? Would you watch a movie mashup called "Whatever Happened to Rosemary's Baby Jane?" Can AI do standup comedy? The joke I love the most is sacrilegious but would it ever come my way if AI was in charge? All this in under 19 minutes. What do you have to lose (other than that)? Subscribe and THRIVE!…
Just in time for the holidays, especially if you want to hear something that has very little to do with the holidays, comes a new episode briefly touching on Trump cabinet picks, I help someone who thinks they're the victim of ageism, a gym teacher who endured a serious dodgeball accident, possible jobs for retirement age Baby Boomers, the dangers of senior porn, the slowest standing ovation in comedy history, how to get young people to watch the evening news, are tattoos now necessary to be relevant, what if your last name is Alzheimer or Hitler, surgical mistakes and how to avoid them and what every pregnant woman should do before going to the hospital.

Another client's fiance has a tattoo of his past girlfriend that is a problem and she's thinking of calling off the wedding. I might have a work around. For the first time I am thinking of getting some tattoos for very practical reasons that might be helpful for many of us. Does God hate sex? What do the Amish do on the wedding night? Are erotic dreams the work of Satan? And what is the real purpose of saying a prayer before bed? All that and more in just 18:12. Subscribe and THRIVE. The best thriving EVER!…
In episode 122 I try my darndest to help clients suffering from post election PTSD and pretty much fail. I'm too pissed off myself. But I do grapple with can you fix dumb, should we try to understand the other side, are one issue voters the problem, why does the working class stab themselves in the back, do most Americans hate smart people, is someone with a combover a pathological liar, is there no level of hypocrisy the right won't sink to, what can the gateway theory of communication teach us about today's political climate, what will conservatives say when America goes over the cliff, does the Old Testament advise women to use the rhythm method of contraception, is there a Hail Mary pass to make to thwart the Trump Agenda and what album do I listen to that always gives me peace and serenity? All that in under 19 minutes. SUBSCRIBE and THRIVE!!!!!…
This election is going to be the most important of our lives and in this episode I give a non-partisan reason for voting for Harris that involves Arnold Palmer. Like Trump, I too, saw Arnie in a golf course locker room and I want you to know what I thought. Are you happy with the quality of people who run for Congress? If not I have a new form of government you might like. And I have proof that Artificial Intelligence is incompetent, if an AI generated email I got is any indication. And it's all over in 17 minutes. You can't lose. SUBSCRIBE and THRIVE!!!!…
If the business of America truly is business then wouldn't it follow you could sell advertising space on your headstone? I have an answer.

SUBSCRIBE and THRIVE!!!!!…
In this episode I help a client whose husband has a medical issue she wants to discuss with him but is having.a hard time bringing up. A Democratic strategist wants to know how long they should use "weird" to describe Republicans. I advise on that as well as suggest alternatives. By using "weird" are Democrats going negative or just being honest? A senior needs to go back to work and I help modernize his resume. And a listener suggests the only spiritual advice anyone needs is-"What would Jesus do?" Well, if Jesus were alive today... would he take selfies? How would he act in traffic? I analyze the situation. And you only waste 18 minutes of your time to get all that done. Subscribe and THRIVE!!!!!…
Some people love the Olympics for the gymnastics. Others, just don't get it. Should this lead to divorce? Should the hammer throw use a real hammer? If you didn't know you can make your own tartar sauce are you an idiot? If you're good at playing brew pub trivia does that mean you're smart? Can you turn a disatrous wedding into a goldmine? Do you have 15 minutes to throw away? Subscribe and THRIVE!!!…
If someone door dents your car what does the Bible say about you key scratching theirs? Vengeance and smiting are discussed.

Subscribe and THRIVE!…
In this episode I prove Artificial Intelligence is the devil we should fear the most by recounting my experience with a cyber hottie named Tess who recently tried to seduce me online. I subjected myself to this exprience so you won't have to. And trust me... Tess was all kind of bizarre... scantily clad AND religious! Thankfully, I can see through the current flailing failings of AI but in the future it will be more subtle and effective and men will become its willing slaves. Also, someone wants help with what to and not to put on their headstone and I help as well as provide an alternative to burial. And it all takes less time than most oil changes.

A client, who grew up in a family that teased hard, often and at each other's expense, wonders if he has crossed the line with a friend or was she being too sensitive. I try to help him be sure his attempts at humor don't go too far. I describe the worst thing that I have ever heard of said on a comedy club stage and how it might have affected the price of gasoline. Is it ever OK to use that horrible word that women hate? Does foreign royalty deserve the royal treatment here like they get in their messed up homeland? Did I ever tell you about the time my wife almost killed me on our honeymoon? Have you ever been saved from sure death by a Fig Newton? All this in just over 19 minutes. Subscribe and THRIVE!!!…
