When darkness overshadows our past, it takes an extraordinary strength to step into the light. That's exactly what Acamea Deadwiler, our guest and survivor-author, embodies. Her raw account of rising beyond the confines of childhood trauma serves as a reminder that although scars may mark our history, they don't chart our future.
Love, in its endless complexity, is a language we never stop learning to speak. Our episode weaves through tales of affection whispered through acts of protection, the silent strength of friendships, and the purest expressions found in the eyes of a child.
Finally, we confront the chains that bind us—resentment, grudges, the silent barriers we erect against love's flow. Through personal revelations, we confront the arduous but essential journey toward forgiveness, not as an act of submission, but as the ultimate form of self-liberation. And as we round off our exploration with the soul-stirring power of music and the life-altering impact of volunteering, we're reminded that the paths we walk, the people we help, and the harmonies we embrace have the force to not only mend but to transform us. Join us on this transformative odyssey, and perhaps, find a piece of your own story reflected in ours.

Music Stories With Hall of Fame Bassist, Phil Soussan
1 RecommendationsStrap in for a wild ride alongside Phil Soussan, the rock legend whose bass lines powered the iconic Ozzy Osbourne and who now thunders with Last In Line. As Phil gets candid about his illustrious journey, he transports us from his Rock Gods Hall of Fame induction to his current project, "Last in Line". We'll also chuckle over a classic anecdote – beware of magnets near your electronics!
Phil doesn't just pluck strings; he strikes chords of advocacy within the music industry, fighting for the rights and royalties of artists in the digital age, and ensuring the FAA understands the importance of a musician's most precious cargo—their instruments. The conversation takes a personal turn as he reminisces about influential bassists, the unique camaraderie on tours with rock's elite, and the Japanese fans' unwavering dedication to American rock. It's a harmonious blend of humor, homage, and the transformative power of music that spans cultures and generations.
Finishing on a high note, Phil shares the serendipity behind his collaboration with Ozzy, the making of "Shot in the Dark," and his upcoming autobiography that promises to resonate deeply with the cultural zeitgeist. Anticipation builds for his fresh solo material, offering a window into his perspective on today's world. It's a heart-to-heart with a bassist who's not just part of music history but continues to make it, and you're front row for the bass line that runs through it all.

What Has Happened To Us?
1 RecommendationsIn this short and atypical episode, I navigate the choppy waters of a St. Louis tragedy that's stirred a national conversation, examining the threads of violence, and the power of our rawest emotions. It's a departure from the norm, but one that invites you to join in a session both therapeutic and thought-provoking.
With my former radio and current Tuttle & Kline Podcast partner, Tim Tuttle, we journey through the aftermath of a violent school altercation that has left one girl hospitalized and another girl arrested. It calls into question the threads that weave our society together—and sometimes tear it apart.
Tim and I discuss humanity's darker moments, as we contemplate the societal fissures that define us. This isn't just another discussion; it's a candid exploration of personal impact and the search for understanding within the chaos of our divided world.
