Alan Day has had adventures that most of us only experience while watching Netflix. In his book, Cowboy Up, Alan shares what life was like for him and his two sisters growing up on the Lazy B, a 200,000-acre family cattle ranch in the arid Southwest.

In what he describes as a “hardscrabble childhood”, it was their upbringing that instilled a strong work ethic, values, and principles that would eventually lead each of them to their own extraordinary life path.

After graduating from college, Alan went on to successfully manage the Lazy B for 40 years. His sister, Ann Day, dedicated her life to public service in the state of Arizona, serving in the state legislature and local government. The eldest of the three siblings, Sandra Day O’Connor, was the first woman appointed to the United States Supreme Court. Sandra was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom and served on the court for 25 years.

Join us for this very special interview, as Alan recounts his writing of Cowboy Up. Filled with humor and deeply moving timeless truths, this book is one man’s story of ranching and the cowboy life lessons in persistence, innovation, common sense, trust, friendship, and experiences that cross all demographics, lifestyles, and decades of time.

Inspired by a real-life incident, Liza Wiemer’s new riveting novel, The Assignment, explores discrimination and antisemitism and reveals their dangerous impact.

Would you defend the indefensible? That's what seniors Logan March and Cade Crawford are asked to do when a favorite teacher instructs a group of students to argue for the Final Solution--the Nazi plan for the genocide of the Jewish people.

Logan and Cade decide they must take a stand, and soon their actions draw the attention of the student body, the administration, and the community at large. But not everyone feels as Logan and Cade do--after all, isn't a school debate just a school debate? It's not long before the situation explodes, and acrimony and anger result.

In an interview you will not want to miss, this new book IS based on true events. The Assignment asks and gives great clarity to the question: What does it take for tolerance, justice, and love to prevail?

Ep. 695 - Proof of Spiritual Phenomena: A Neuroscientist's Discovery of the Mysteries of the Universe | Mona Sobhani, PhD

Neuroscientist Mona Sobhani, Ph.D., details her transformation from diehard materialist to open-minded spiritual seeker and shares the extensive research she discovered on past lives, karma, and the complex interactions of mind and matter. She reveals her conversations about spirituality, consciousness, and anomalous occurrences with scientific colleagues as well as high-level experts and government officials, as she searched for proof of a meaningful cosmos.

She discovered that psi research has been conducted on a grand scale for more than a century--by hundreds of scientists with hundreds of thousands of participants--and that there exists substantial evidence for the reality of psi. She examines meta-analyses of these experiments, such as that of the Ganzfield tests, which showed the odds against chance of 12 billion to 1--throwing our current scientific materialist paradigm into question.

Providing a deep dive into the literature of psychology, quantum physics, neuroscience, philosophy, and esoteric texts, Sobhani also explores the relationship between psi phenomena, the transcendence of space and time, and spirituality. Culminating with the author’s serious reckoning with one of the foundational principles of neuroscience--scientific materialism-- this illuminating book shows that the mysteries of human experience go far beyond what the present scientific paradigm can comprehend and leaves open the possibility of a participatory, meaningful Universe.
