It's Not Good To Aggravate Grandma 02/24/2021

It's Not Good To Aggravate Grandma It's Not Good To Aggravate Grandma. That was my thought when I heard the latest Royal Family 'family' news. Best selling author and Royals expert Diane Clehane told me she was thinking the same thing! In this fun feature interview, you'll catch on that Diane Clehane knows everything about the Royal Family. Sometimes before everybody else. Will there be regrets? Let's just say poor Harry might lose big. Diane reported before anyone (even the British press) that the Queen would take away Harry's titles. (Repeat: It's Not Good To Aggravate Grandma.) Diane explained, "The Queen and The Monarchy always play the long game. Anybody who goes up against them like Meghan and Harry are doing now, and as some may remember, Princess Diana did in the past, may win them some points with the public and some cashing in, but the Queen rarely doesn't come out on top. She knows what she’s doing. Theres a reason she’s the longest reigning Monarch." How did Oprah get involved? Diane knows better than anyone that there's always a story behind the story. According to Diane, Oprah always wanted to interview Princess Diana and considers it the interview that got away. Oprah and Meghan have very strong but separate agendas that work well together and obviously an interview is coming. Back to Harry. We all know there's a special bond between a loving grandfather and a grandson. This weeks news that 99 year old Prince Philip (Harry's Grandpa) is not doing well is unsettling. So despite all the Royal drama, Diane reported that Harry "will need to be with the family should the worst happen. " That according to a royal source. A leading authority on modern celebrity and royalty, Diane Clehane's twice a week 'Royals Report' can be found on BestLife.com. Diane knows things. For instance, there are so many people that have worked for the various factions of the Royal Family for so long, acting as various intermediaries, that sometimes they are the ones who keep the family apart from each other and the Royals don’t even know it. (OMG) Diane is a terrific writer. She's a New York Times best-selling author of five books, including Diana: The Secrets of Her Style and Imagining Diana, a novel which envisioned what would have happened if Princess Diana survived the 1997 crash in Paris. A frequent TV commentator on the royal family on CNN, CBS and NBC and today's podcast interview features the latest Royal scoop. /episode/index/show/thedebbienigroshow/id/18075956

A Heartfelt Talk With Legend Joe Namath 01/21/2021

A Heartfelt Talk With Legend Joe Namath All these years later NFL Legend Joe Namath is still the one! Voted The #1 'Character' in NFL History...Joe Namath Is Also A Gentleman, Good Man, Family Man, Philanthropist, Kind To The Public, and still in great shape. I invited Joe Namath to talk a little NFL Playoff stuff but I really wanted to talk with him about a lot of other 'stuff' which we did. We bonded. Told him he's ageless timeless and weightless like me. We laughed. Joe's big on 'We' vs "Me' as you'll listen and see. Was really a lot of fun to get a little personal with such a famous 'character'. To what does he attribute people still being smitten with him all these years? Who does he watch football games with? Does he yell during the games? What's his 'Grandpa' name? What about those white shoes back when? Can he cook? Does he do chores around his house? Enjoyed all the answers. By the way. I first met Joe Namath in bed. At the foot of my fathers bed on Sundays as a kid. I'd lean across watching football games with my Dad who always explained the game and taught me the rules. That is, when he wasn't on the phone with Uncle Joe (die hard Jets fan) who'd call in between every play to 'discuss'. Fun memories. Oh speaking of memories, wait till you hear about Joe Namath's Uncle Joe. Shhhh! He told me something he said he never told anyone. In case you're wondering...yes I am actually a football fan. Just an average female football fan who loves to watch the game. There are many of us. We have our favorite teams and favorite players. And Joe Namath happens to be one of my all time favorites. I hope you'll enjoy listening to our conversation which was supposed to be a ten minute interview but Joe was having such a good time we just kept going. I typically post only my feature interviews here but this one was special so I've posted the podcast of my entire show with commercials edited out. There's a phrase in football you may have heard...Go Long! So we did. /episode/index/show/thedebbienigroshow/id/17639312

Creative People Often Get Financially Screwed 12/15/2020

Creative People Often Get Financially Screwed There are many creative souls out there who've done genius work during their lifetime but somehow never got the right people to surround them. Or make them famous. Or protect them to make money. One example is a soul funk group from the 70’s called '24 Carat Black'. Their story finally gets told all these years later by a curious journalist named Zach Schonfeld in his new book GHETTO: MISFORTUNES WEALTH. Schonfelds book is part of Bloomsbury's 33 1/3 series. It's the fascinating story of the mysterious 1970s funk group and how they became one of the most widely sampled bands throughout hip-hop. Sampling I’ve now learned is when a musician/producer takes a fragment of a pre-existing song, and then uses it to create a new song. For example, Vanilla Ice famously sampled Queen's song "Under Pressure" to create his own song "Ice Ice Baby." Sampling is very common in hip-hop, as the beats are often sampled from older recordings. Schonfelds book highlights the 1973 soul funk concept album by '24 Carat Black' which is about poverty and inner city struggle. Ghetto: Misfortune’s Wealth, flopped upon its release and sank into cultural obscurity. Strangely many iconic rappers who’ve made a lot of money have ‘sampled’ 24 Carat Blacks music over and over and over and over on albums by the likes of Nas, Kendrick Lamar, JAY-Z, Eric B. & Rakim, Digable Planets, and others. The surviving members of 24-Carat Black have never gotten paid for the countless ‘samples’ (use) of their music throughout the past 30 years of rap. ( How unfortunate is that? Can they get paid retroactive?) Zach joins me for a feature interview on The Debbie Nigro Show today. Zach Schonfeld is a writer, journalist, and music critic based in New York. He contributes regularly to Pitchfork, Vulture, Paste Magazine, and other publications. Previously, he was a senior writer for Newsweek, where he covered culture and entertainment for the print magazine, and an associate editor for PopMatters. This is his first book. /episode/index/show/thedebbienigroshow/id/17198234

Did You Know Astronauts Train Underwater? 12/01/2020

Did You Know Astronauts Train Underwater? Did You Know Astronauts Train Underwater? Engineer Glenn Butler, CEO Life Support Technologies knows because he's been involved. Glenn was the principal consultant for NASA-Johnson Space Center to engineer zero-gravity simulation breathing systems and develop new oxygen safety standards for the astronaut training program - designed to support the then Hubble Space Telescope emergency repair mission. They were the first to figure out they needed to use NITROX instead of AIR to be able to extend the space walks long enough to fix what had to be fixed. Glenn Butler is my guest today in honor of the Space X launch. Be cool to understand better how the 4 astronauts on board (3 men one woman) trained to spend 6 months - working, doing science research and sleeping in space - weightless. I offered to teach them how to 'act' weightless, ageless and timeless but they called Glenn instead. Glenn Butler has more than 35 years experience in military and commercial diving, and clinical hyperbaric operations. He has developed and/or operated twenty (20) plus major hospital-based Hyperbaric Medicine programs internationally. He's involved with NASA and U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) clients ongoing. A founding member of the National Board Certification for Hyperbaric Technologists, he's also is a member of the UHMS Hyperbaric Safety Committee. He served for many years as a member of the NFPA-99 Hyperbaric Technical Committee. He has authored several HBO2-related U.S. patents and published more than 36 scientific documents. Glenn's new book will be released shortly. It's for anyone interested in science and diving. It's about mentorship and passing on what he's learned to the next generation. Very cool. life-support-usa.com The Neutral Buoyancy Laboratory (NBL) is operated by NASA.

We Can Prevent The Next Pandemic "Spillover" Of A Zoonotic Disease 11/13/2020

We Can Prevent The Next Pandemic "Spillover" Of A Zoonotic Disease To prevent major viral outbreaks such as the COVID-19 outbreak, and the associated impacts on human health, well-being, economies, and security on a global scale, the (WCS) recommends stopping all commercial trade in wildlife for human consumption (particularly of birds and mammals) and closing all such markets. Meanwhile, ensuring consideration of the needs of Indigenous Peoples and local communities that are dependent on wildlife consumption for their food security. John Calvelli, Executive Vice President for Public Affairs for the WCS wants us all to step up and help NOW. John joins me for a feature interview to explain...it's in OUR power. “Banning the trade in live wildlife for human consumption is the first step to bring our planet back on the road to good health. The proposed legislation is the prescription to do just that.” "By its very nature, a pandemic is not a one-country problem. Nor is it a one-party problem. The COVID-19 crisis can be a wake-up call for us all to bring balance back to our fractured relationship with nature, or it can be just the latest in a continuing series of global health crises. The choice is ours." The commercial trade in live wildlife for human consumption is leaving us exposed to the threat of deadly, zoonotic pandemics through viral spillover from wildlife to humans along the trade chain. WHAT YOU CAN DO CLICK THIS LINK AND TELL CONGRESS: SUPPORT THE PREVENTING FUTURE PANDEMICS ACT AND END THE COMMERCIAL TRADE IN LIVE WILDLIFE FOR HUMAN CONSUMPTION. CLICK THIS LINK AND TELL CONGRESS: END THE COMMERCIAL TRADE IN WILDLIFE FOR HUMAN CONSUMPTION AND CLOSE ASSOCIATED LIVE WILDLIFE MARKETS INTERNATIONALLY TO PREVENT THE NEXT PANDEMIC. The Wildlife Conservation Society is a non-governmental organization headquartered at the Bronx Zoo in New York City. They work to save wildlife and wild places in nearly 60 countries and across the ocean. Across the planet, they collaborate with Indigenous Peoples and local communities to achieve a shared vision for a more secure and resilient future wcs.org #WorldConservationSociety #SavingWildlifeIn60Countries #JohnCalvelli #PreventFutureZoonoticPandemics #CloseTheWildlifeMarkets #VirusBreedInWildAnimalsAndSpreadToHumans #BronxZoo /episode/index/show/thedebbienigroshow/id/16794107
