    The Art of Lies: Dilemma, Betrayal, and Vietnamese Art Forgeries. What if the Biggest Fraud was Your Family Legacy?

    What happens when an ambitious museum employee from Vietnam discovers art crime that affects her family and country? Thuy, a proud 39-year-old aspiring museum curator in Hanoi, Vietnam, loses a long-sought-after job but then gets the chance to mount a major visiting exhibit at her museum, which could boost her career. The exhibit will showcase paintings “returning home” to Vietnam. A collector in France has offered to loan Vietnamese artists’ paintings that have been outside the country for years. Several paintings are by her famous great-uncle, whose reputation has been critical for the family legacy for decades. But, right before the exhibit opens, she’s faced with the possibility that some of the paintings are fake. She must find out if they are, why they are, and who’s behind the scam.

    Her father insists she tell no one, not even the museum’s director and curator. She fears that opening with forged paintings could ruin her reputation, along with the artists’, the museum, and the country. She approaches the collector, who claims he had no idea and insists she open the exhibit.

  • (Bonus Episode)Book 101 Review, in its fifth season, features Ara Trembly a licensed counsellor and practicing psychotherapist as my guest.

    Dreaming God's Way

    Humans have been fascinated by dreams and their meanings since the beginning of recorded consciousness. Poets, philosophers, mystics, and psychologists have explored the dream world with intense interest.

    The Bible itself is filled with vivid dreams that are personally and historically significant and through which God speaks to humans and even nations. In the Jewish tradition, the Talmud views dreaming as a means by which God communicates with the soul and dream interpretation as a valuable spiritual activity. Yet the subject of dreams is almost entirely absent in today's Christian psychology textbooks or counseling offices.

    As a practicing psychotherapist, Trembly reclaims the dream world as a gift from God and asserts: "The Lord of our conscious life is also the Lord of our unconscious life." He uses examples from the Scriptures and from his clinical practice to illustrate different types of dreams, ranging from playful to prophetic to precognitive. He then provides a practical, step-by-step guide to interpreting dreams so that these messages from the unconscious mind may be an avenue for greater self-knowledge and for encounters with God, who created us.

    Alyssa Sharp

    Future Self Coach

    I spent years climbing the corporate ladder as a six-figure project manager, checking all the boxes of “success” — but behind the promotions and full calendar, I was exhausted, unfulfilled, and questioning if this was really all there was.


    That’s when I discovered Future Self Psychology and used it to completely shift my identity, my choices, and ultimately, my life. I left corporate, built a freedom-based business, and now coach other ambitious women who want to break out of burnout and design a business and lifestyle that actually feels aligned.


    On your show, I can share both the raw side of leaving behind a “safe” career and the practical strategies of stepping into your future self now — including clarity exercises, mindset shifts, and the exact path I teach clients to replace their 9–5 income.


    Your listeners will walk away with a blend of inspiration and actionable steps to see themselves differently, believe bigger, and move toward their own version of freedom.

    George Sirois

    Let Author / Podcaster / Audiobook Narrator George Sirois Tell You a Story

    My experience as a storyteller goes back to childhood, when I recorded my first “audiobook” when I was 6, which was basically me reading a storybook to my cousin who was recovering from cancer surgery. I’m 4th grade, I started creating characters with my friends to pass the time between assignments and those characters led to the ones that are in my current young adult / science-fiction novels. After being a part of a roundtable podcast with other authors, I was inspired to start my own in 2018, and that show is still going strong today. And in 2023, I directed an audio dramatization of one of my own books, working with over 20 talented actors all around the world.

  • (Bonus Episode)Book 101 Review, in its fifth season, features Matthew Strunk a serial entrepreneur with multiple business exits and the founder of illumiShift as my guest.

    Matthew Strunk

    Built and sold companies, yet still felt lost after doing everything “right.” Now I guide people to The Hidden Path™, freedom and purpose on their own terms.


    I’ve built and sold multiple companies, including a digital marketing agency and a SaaS platform, but what I discovered after those exits is what makes my story valuable for your audience: success alone doesn’t guarantee fulfillment.


    Like so many entrepreneurs and professionals, I did everything “right.” I built the businesses, hit the milestones, made the money: only to realize I felt stuck, bored, and disconnected. That experience taught me the dirty secret most people don’t talk about: the game of success, as the world defines it, can actually trap you.


    Today, I’m the founder of illumiShift, where I guide people through The Hidden Path™, a structured system to help them detox from noise, uncover their truth, and realign life on their own terms. Along the way, I share signature concepts like The Purpose Paradox (why chasing success without purpose leads to emptiness) and Fear as Fuel (how to transform fear into momentum).


    For your audience, this conversation isn’t just about my story, it’s about their story:


    - Why “having it all” often still feels empty.

    - How to recognize if they’re chasing society’s version of success instead of their own.

    - Practical tools for cutting through the noise and getting clarity on what actually matters.

    - How to break free from burnout, boredom, and finally start getting real traction in life.

  • Law 101 in its first season, featuring Mr.Andy Semotiuk as my co-host.

    The Gold Visa program, often associated with investment-based residency schemes, has been a topic of interest in relation to former U.S. President Donald Trump. While Trump himself did not obtain a Gold Visa, his real estate empire and business ventures have benefited from such programs in various countries. Wealthy foreign investors, particularly from China, Russia, and the Middle East, have reportedly used EB-5 visas—a U.S. counterpart to the Gold Visa—to invest in Trump-branded properties in exchange for residency in the United States. Additionally, Trump’s stance on immigration policies, despite tightening restrictions on certain visa categories, did not directly impact investment-based visa programs, which continued to attract affluent individuals seeking residency through economic contributions.

  • Law 101 in its first season with Mr.Lem Garcia talking about personal injuries.

    Personal injuries refer to physical, emotional, or psychological harm suffered by an individual due to another party’s negligence, recklessness, or intentional actions. These injuries can arise from various situations, including car accidents, workplace incidents, medical malpractice, defective products, and slip-and-fall accidents. Personal injury law allows victims to seek compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other damages resulting from the injury. Establishing liability often requires proving that the responsible party had a duty of care, breached that duty, and directly caused the injury. While some cases are resolved through insurance settlements, others may proceed to court if a fair agreement cannot be reached. Seeking legal guidance is essential to navigating the complexities of personal injury claims and ensuring that victims receive the justice and compensation they deserve.
