Happy Halloween! For Halloween, I decided to go with a true crime book over a serial killer you might have never heard of. His name is Israel Keys. He killed all over the country for over a decade. He's still a mystery because he didn't disclose much information about some of his kills and then he committed suicide shortly after. Callahan's background as an investigative journalist made the book into a 299 pg. news article. I wanted to keep on reading this story. Callahan provides a ton of information and background while providing the art of story telling to disclose the information on how the police caught Keys. In this episode, I review the book, discuss what I liked and disliked about the book, and lessons I received from the book.

Several years later, Atlas meets Lily at his restaurant while she's on a date with Ryle (first book). BAM. The kindle to the fire lights itself to a full blazing fire. Lily can't stop thinking about Atlas. She can't stop thinking about him even more when Ryle slaps her and pushes her down the stairs. Atlas helps Lily in the first book, but they go their separate ways again. Oh no. Atlas wasn't losing Lily again, so he starts talking to her and eventually starts dating her. You'll have to find out what happens next in this new book! In this episode, I review the book, discuss what I liked and disliked, and any lessons I received from the book.

19. Ride of A Lifetime by Robert Iger Book Review
Robet Iger was the CEO of Disney for 15 years. He made some big changes to Disney when he was CEO: acquired Pixar, Lucasfilm's, Marvel, and parts of 21st Century Fox; made a streaming device called Disney+ with all their entities in one place; and geared Disney more internationally. Iger talks about all these things and more in this book. This is one of the best leadership/business books I've read. In this episode, I review the book, discuss what I liked and disliked about the book, and any lessons I received from the book.
