Kathryn interviews Author Randy Fertel PhD.Improv has given us some of the greatest creative work ever produced. From Louis Armstrong to Robin Williams, their genius was forged from their in-the-moment brilliance. Improv has also led to great advancements in science, technology, and business, with the idea of “yes, and…” leading to the openness that drives innovation. But as Randy Fertel—born in New Orleans and raised on its jazz—shows us, improv has also led to phrases like “Lock Her Up,” and the rise of a past—and perhaps future—President who connects with his supporters with an off-the-cuff speaking style they perceive as authentic and straight-shooting. Fertel explains the persuasive power of Trump’s charismatic BS-ing in historical context, and he shows how a facility with improvisation has played a pivotal role in so much of our cultural, political, and scientific development. He has a PhD from Harvard University, and is president of the Ruth U Fertel Foundation, named for his mother, Ruth Fertel, founder of Ruth's Chris Steak House.Kathryn also interviews Author Stephan Poulter PhD.Men are in crisis. The old model of masculinity is dying. Women are saying “enough” to it and so are many men. Your father’s masculinity—the one that denied him any emotions except anger and too often led to tragic personal, familial, and social outcomes—is rightfully going the way of the dinosaur. But what should replace it and how can men embrace a new, healthy model of masculinity? Stephan B. Poulter Phd offers a comprehensive answer. Threaded with stories from his work with men, self-assessment quizzes, and practical strategies, he guides men in cultivating emotional intelligence, building meaningful relationships and overcoming trauma. He sheds some light on the link between toxic masculinity and male violence as well as the shame men experience when asking for help from doctors or medical professionals. Stephan is a renowned LA based clinical psychologist with over thirty years of experience. He is married, a father of four, and an author of several books including The Shame Factor and Father Your Son.
