Before Bedtime  

Thank you all so much for being eternally patient with us on Before Bedtime. I didn't have a show last week, as I was on the beach relaxing and living the dream I hope you all missed me. This week we have two really special guests Mary Jackson and Stacey Geist. Mary is a renowned family expert. She has spent countless hours studying, learning, talking, and praying for families to succeed. Mary's great insight, wisdom, and experience make her the perfect guest to interview with us especially on Father's Day. Tune in this week as Mary provides us with a great interview that we'll entertain us and also teach us something. Our second guest tonight is Stacey Geist. Stacey is a children's writer with great stories that are fun, humorous, and keep readers of all ages turning the pages looking for more. Stacey will provide great info, for parents looking to provide their children with wonderful reading materials and Stacey will also be able to show writers great ideas, experience, and tips to inspire all of us. This is an interview you don't want to miss!

Ryan Kulka is our musician guest this week on Before Bedtime. Ryan and his band, are a very special group of people as they not only entertain, but also give a portion of their proceeds back to charitable groups and orginazations. They have spent countless hours perfecting, practicing, and writing music that touches both the ears and the heart. Ryan will be a wonderful interview on Before Bedtime. Mike comes in this week as a financial advisor. During this tough economic recession, Mike's wisdom and experience will truly give us sound advice to do what we can to make sure we can live comfortably for a long time. Mike's financial experience, good judgment, and decision will truly be both engaging and thought provoking as he graces us on Before Bedtime this week. Our final guest of the night is Richard Macphie who has self published a book called A Society of Few Good Men. Richard has informed me his book contains a lot of fascinating insights and observations about our current political state. I won't steal all of Richard's thunder, and let him tell you all about the book. He will also talk with us, about his experiences as a self published author and the highs and lows of self publishing. The order of the show will be Richard, Mike, and finally Ryan.

Welcome back to Before Bedtime! This week we are so privileged to have Danielle Booth, Tamara Zenobia Coleman, and Erik Barstow to interview with us on the show this week. Danielle sadly was not able to join us last week, so we have decided to have her again. Danielle is an acclaimed author of a wonderful cookbook that has many delicious recipes that will help prevent cancer. Her story is one that needs to be told, and a perfect fit for Before Bedtime. Our next guest is Tamara Zenobia Coleman. Born and raised in Alaska, Tamara has just begun her life adventures as an artist and traveler. At the age of 24 she moved to Seattle, Washington were she lived for five years, pursuing a career in real estate. After much hard work and no success in the business she decided to return home and ponder her next great adventure. It was at that time she decided to move to Paris, France where she currently lives and works as artist (vocalist, musician, writer). She is the founder and President of “The African American Culture Exchange” which is a non profit organization based in Paris, France which aims at educating the local population about the true culture and history of African Americans in the United States. In addition to working on her own music she also works as a booking agent for several Paris based musicians. Tamara was inspired to create this documentary based on her experiences as a Black Alaskan in France and the general misconceptions she faces regarding her origins. I look forward to hearing Tamara's fascinating experiences and stories. Rounding out our night we have Erik Barstow. Erik is a photographer for the military, and he has been to several countries, taken many wonderful photographs, and truly has some words of inspiration and wisdom to share to us on Before Bedtime.
