These days, so many of us are experimenting with our own forms of broadcasting in the modern age, Francis sits down with us to share some tips drawn from his long career in broadcasting, about leaving the "funny" in, how to read people in studio and corona-virtual settings, and how to get right to the point in communications

Francis Rose is an award-winning broadcaster, journalist, speaker, writer, and host of Government Matters on Washington, DC's WJLA/ABC7 and NewsChannel 8. His 35-year media career includes stops at America's leading broadcasters, including ABC Radio, CBS Radio, and Westwood One.

The 2020 Gratitude Podcast!  Today, we sit down with Mia Linder, our teen culture expert, for a first-hand look at how teens practice gratitude, and for insight on how teens lean on social media to keep perspective in Corona times, and a story of egg roll stir fry. We then wrap up our first season with a few tips to bring more gratitude into your life.  Thank you for supporting A Hundred Words in 2020 and we look forward to a great 2021 with you!

Dr. Pat Kilduff sits down with us to share a story of humility and honesty, from his turbulent childhood, to coming of age, to a career of serving others, and how this all led him to be a man of principles that we can all aspire to. We also get a peek along the way into the turbulent state of our healthcare system, and how those entering the profession could benefit.

It’s Thanksgiving week here in the US, and even in Corona times, we are all here getting ready for slight over-abundance of eating!

So, it's timely to ask, have you ever struggled with maintaining your ideal weight? It’s a serious subject for many of us, including my co-host Shaun Daney and I.  

But this week, Shaun and I go completely off script and instead, we talk the lighter side of the struggles around the perfect weight, and dealing with ill-fitting clothes including belts, bunching....blousing!

The struggle is real, have a great Thanksgiving if you are celebrating and stay safe in Corona times!

Eric Schall is an unassuming and humble presence that conceals one hell of a survival story!

In addition to being a successful father, husband, and family business owner, Eric is an elite swimmer who, after we get to know him a bit, will first share with you his journey from “can’t swim one length of a pool” to becoming an elite-level open water swimmer, which is a great story in itself, and is another example that we are never too late in life to follow a passion or dream, how to follow breadcrumbs as they are shown to you, and also how to intend a goal without being over-attached to it.

Now, as for what comes next, I am just going to tell you that you are going to be treated to a story that is, without a doubt, the stuff that nightmares are made of. I am not going to give much away except to say that before I sat down with Eric, I already generally knew the story you’re about to hear, and even so, I was completely mesmerized and also terrorized hearing this first hand.

This week, we sit down with the one-of-a-kind László Varga!

László has some amazing stories to tell about so many life experiences. He was born and raised in Hungary, lucky to be a husband to the wonderful Szilvia, blessed to be a father to brilliant and talented twin girls, and right now is peaking in a successful and distinguished career at a world leader in a fascinating niche you'll hear more about, not to mention his accomplishments as an gifted multi-sport athlete.

There are so many interesting pieces to his story, László is a gifted story teller, and before the journey ends we hear about a narrow escape from the war Zone while living in the Ukraine in 2014, and we get 5 keys to success that Laszlo swears by as takeaways.

Grab a coffee or a good glass of wine, This is A Hundred Words with László Varga.

You know what a first world problem is, right? Here in Corona times, remember back in lockdown, when you probably caught yourself getting a little agitated about some “serious” first world problems, which of course looking back are probably ridiculously funny.

How would you like to meet someone who laughs at some of life’s most serious and real problems, just like you laugh off first world problems?

...“You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, 'I have lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.' You must do the thing you think you cannot do.” 

- Eleanor Roosevelt
