Brent Mata, Producer/DP on "It Happened: The Judy Tenuta Story
Deborah Kobylt LIVE
There was a time when there were very few female comics, but that's changed due in large part to the brave women who had the courage to stand up and speak their mind on stage. One of those women was Judy Tenuta, considered one of the most unique and trailblazing comedians of a generation, cutting through the male-dominated profession with her sharp wit and style. And because of her, many women were subsequently able to break into comedy. Judy gained national recognition in 1987 after starring in the HBO special, Women of the Night, opposite Ellen DeGeneres and Rita Rudner. After that,...

Today, I present an extraordinary true story for Women's History Month, written by Suzanne Cope, "Women Of War: The Italian Assassins, Spies, and Couriers Who Fought the Nazis."

Rob Thomas, Wordless Connection: Deepen Intimacy Without Saying a World Even if You are Married.
Deborah Kobylt LIVE
Very often, we don't need to speak to get our point across. In fact, a look or touch can speak volumes, and I'll be discussing that with Rob Thomas, author of "Wordless Connection: Deepen Intimacy Without Saying a Word." Rob's book provides a practical, five-step framework for couples to rebuild trust and closeness through nonverbal communication rather than the traditional "talking it out" method, which can often lead to arguments. Rob talks about specific silent techniques designed to increase empathy and intimacy, and uses neuroscience and behavioral research to illustrate how nonverbal...
info_outlineThere are more than 30,000 children in the foster care system throughout Los
Angeles County. Once they reach legal age, they are on their own, often with no place
to go, no job, family, and often with limited skills. Arzo Yusuf, executive director with
Angels Nest, is working to change that.
Angels Nest assists with transitioning youth from foster care into the world so these
children can function as thriving adults. But it's hard. Nearly 33% end up homeless,
85% are sex trafficked, and 90% end up incarcerated. Clearly, something isn't working
with these kind of statistics, and we'll talk about that and possible solutions to a
system that has been in place for decades.
Arzo's mission is to give these kids tools and finances to get a head start, providing
services from rent support, educational assistance such as tuition, books, and laptops,
groceries, and the list goes on. And she's had tremendous success.
Imaging growing up in a chaotic household, only to end up in a foster system that
abandons you. It seems unimaginable. And you can help, too.
Please find my fullinterview with Arzo Yusuf on all video and audio platforms of #DeborahKobyltLIVE. I'm your host, #DeborahZaraKobylt, and it's my pleasure to welcome you here.
