Loving Life Podcast

In this episode of the Loving Life Podcast, I talk with Efren Ramirez who played the part of "Pedro" in the 2004 movie Napoleon Dynamite. Find out what it's like to have everyone call you Pedro wherever you go. How does he feel about that, the movie, and how it has come to be such an iconic film.

In this episode of the Loving Life podcast I welcome my wife Sandra back to the show after a long absence. It's my opportunity to discuss with her about how I feel she has "selective hearing". Let the fun begin.

Giving should happen 365 days a year! Loving Life Podcast S2E50

In an effort to get ahead for the feast of the year, I have a list of the top Thanksgiving MAIN courses and SIDES. I agree with some, others not so much. Just trying to help you for the big day! Enjoy!

From those scratchy tags on your clothes to pop up adds and toilet paper, who thought this stuff would be "cool" to put out there? Check out the top "irritants" out there. I'm sure you could add more!

The phrase really goes like this, "That which does not kill us makes us stronger." and I think in every aspect of life that can ring true. I think most of us learn from our mistakes. Sometimes it might take a little longer with people, but that's fine, right? If we could choose "easy" each time we would. In fact a commercial for office supplies created the "easy" button. (They even made them up and sold them to the public!) Mother Nature chooses easy too. The path of least resistance. Go figure. Get tough. Get to it! 

You have heard the phrase before, now as adults do you use this phrase? The topic came to mind when I saw a short story about the rules we used to have as kids with food and meals. The rules we break now as adults!!! Short podcast for you today poking fun at it all! Enjoy. ~ Charlie

In my early life, if you were to tell me that I would have a personal phone conversation with Dennis DeYoung from STYX, I may have chuckled and said "No way!". It happened, and it was awesome! We talk about the internet, the shows after STYX, hearing his songs in the grocery store, and what kind of candy he is passing out at the DEYOUNG house for Halloween. Give a listen. Great guy!

"Regrets, I've had a few, but then again too few to mention." Thank you Frank Sinatra. How many though? How much time have you wasted over the years and how could you have changed that? Well, it may be too late for the past, but I can change things for the rest of this ride called "life". Plus- I can pass it on to the kids, and so can you.
