Matt Duffin Show

TBI's on the road.  Jennifer Goodman is driving under the moon lit sky as we take a trip back to her home.   TBI's times two, road trippin... Lot's we can discuss, just remind us to check for gas!  Hoping Kim or someone will run the switchboard - call us.   (424) 243-9540  Yeah Y'all!

CTE deaths follow a long, confusing life span.  Bangs to the head are NEVER a good thing.  Some sports protect the noggin as best the can, but is it good enough.  A brain injury lives on the edge.  I dance along, trusting my Angels to keep me straight....

Jennifer Goodman and Matt kick off thier new season with information, talk, fun and rock, plus a new hairstyle.   Jen's shortened her hair this morning - by 6 inches!  It's still long and beautiful.  As is she.  Off the wall show - you make a discussion, er, topic.  Topics, are like rules.  Meant to be broken if no one is harmed.  Topics hold brain injured folks back, as the thought of the moment is gone.  That's why - ''HUH?" is often said, not that we are silly.  Forgetful, OMG!  Call us, the Colts and the Astros are on Monday, so no interuptions.  I have two telivisions in my studio, I'll be fine watching both.  Now, keeping up with Jennifer may be another subject.  Also, I have my last classes this week on 'writing'.  Whew, I shouldn't of taken two back to back nights.  Oh well, a pair of nights to go.  Let's ROCK.  If you can't enjoy your brain injury, which is all you have, than what can we enjoy?  And don't say a piece of pie - many of us have little or no taste! 4424 -243-9540

Vegas followd Hurracane's in destructing our peace as Americans.  Our National Capitol seems very confused, if not under indictments with all the glamor of an apprentice. A 'No Show' or confused soul follows.  Let's talk about it all. Also, Jennifer Goodman traveled a map, a Brain Map this week with me, inside the Brain Forrest - she's excited about that! Kneel or Stand became life or limb in the new home of an NFL franchise.  America didn't seem as concerned about deciding who is right, and who is wrong this week over the mass shootings, but yet, loudly ran those conservative, Trump pandering mouths during the Puerto Rico crisis.  Uh, the Island IS AMERICA, you love it, right?  Don't discard the Island - Senator Strom Thurmand (R-SC) is the blame, a hidden blame, for the finanacial downfall of the 3.5 million residents home.  Unlike Texas has, or many other states - they have no form of bankrupt - except to be broke.   Yet President-selected Trump believes money comes first, overlooking the destruction, trauma and hurt society.  The lies, as did with Nixon, are catching up.  This is The Matt Duffin Show - NOT FAKE NEWS... News for TBI Survivors and families.  Not FAKE, not fake at all, Mr. President... (424)  243-9540 to talk, listen or rock.  Perhaps.  Let's see what BlogTalk offers me, as we try to enlight the world (TMDS - 46 Countries strong an growing)...

Many American's watched or are watching the NFL, either privately or openly.   Home or Fantasy Team action - folks plan a year ahead to follow thier team.   Some will watch players pre-game displays of the National Anthem, but very, VERY few paid $200 of so, to watch Francis Scott Key's song be played.  Blame the pre-game 'information' on the NFL and a divided America, not all the players as one.    Make a rule to "Abide" as you feel Americans should, or live with it.  It's not Constitutional Right, or a Protest - simply just living free (unless WORK says different.  Money, not a President takes presidence.   We 'may' have a Bill of Rights attorney with a lot of sheep skins explaining. BTW: Jen's doing Fire Safety night, and I'll cover some Anthem info.  Get into football safety, some military input, VA input and my non-Putin advice on political safety (stay away from public opinion matters) on TMDS.  Hoping a Marine with a view joins us - he's pretty smart. Bring my Nam Vet Cuz'in on too.  He's too smart.  Show us your smart ideas too!  I KNOW brain injured folks are brighter, and see's life differently than the world thinks we do. Yep, I'm letting the secret out!  (424) 243-9540 10 p.m. ET - Midnight, maybe more, on braininjuryradio.com.  When the Pacific Ocean phones start working, we hang with it.  If not, as Eric Clapton would say "After midnight, we're gonna let it all hang out..."

Unlucky 13 ended up pretty lucky for me.   Let's do some math skills, TBI wise.  1 appendix removal at 12;  27 surgery's since 2008, the "Year of The Wreck." Now, as of Friday afternoon - 13 of those total surgery proceedures have been ''done'' in the last 5 years.  Angioplasti something again and my blood is flowing best it has in a couple years - at least by my strong guess.  You see, once brain injury recovery in the early years - its not over.  New and fresh chronic issues 'pop' up, or simply 'scare tissue' developed around your wounded brain cells, or dead brain cells.   28 times under the bright lights of an O.R. - "Hi, I'm Matt Duffin."  Watching the Browns VS the Colts.  (Oh boy - talk about pee-ewe!  Someone has to win, I suppose.  Go Horse!) I'd like you to meet Miss Jennifer Goodman, TMDS co-host and Downtown Milton Studio HOST.  I'm allowed back to my desk - it's all her's or the cats.  And Max, the bird.  His 'Tweets are usually easier to understand than the Presidents.   Call, Open Mic for all.  Well, the be nice folks all.  (424) 243-9540 and talk, rock and be loosely bored.  But then again, you're listening - call with your opinion.  That's why we are here on Brain Injury Radio...

Tony Stewart and AJ drive tonight, and Jennifer and I are invited.  Sunshine says we're going, so does the appearance of the sun.  HaHa,  The Race, a 100 lapper, begins at 7.  We'll be back, or in the near the home pits at 'showtime' - soooooo.' Let me try something.  Mr Walker will NOT open the show tonight, but Doctor Samatha Backhaus recording will explain the brain.  At 8 pm (PT) we should be in Studio, and prepared to take calls at 424  243-9540.   Uh, Jen and I was given t-shirts by the Stewart family to attend and wear.  With winter coming faster than we can see, Summer Nights still need enjoyed - if you can.   I've got a high level respritory illness, but had that yesterday too - wasn't stopping me from my Starting Pitcher slot for the America's of the NC Miracle League All Stars.  I earned that spot - I'd of puked on the mound if mandatory!   Jennifer is so happy baseball seasson has ended - FOR ME.  As for the remaining Miracles - she say's "play ball -we're on!"

Indianapolis Symphany Orchestra meet Led Zepplin.  And Jennifer, myself.  Our world on braininjuryradio.com and beyond is impressed. Quite a weekend, bigger day's that's not so quiet.  It's Labor Day in America - enjoy youself!  Picnic, visit, hide and play games - but enjoy yourself. You're done your Labor's, right?  Nope. DOING our Labor's of life.  Jen and I are juuuuuust comming from the Indy Orchestra's outdoor concert summer festival at Conner Prarie's Amplitheater in Fisher's, Indiana. Racing tomorrow.  Taking TBI's on The World's Fastest 1/2 Mile evening.  Mix in a surprise legal issue to help a friend - let's Labor! (424)  243-9540 to talk, listen or just chat.  We're on mine or Jen's phone I bet so no calls taken until we get back to The Downtown Milton Studio...

God sent Angels who lead me to doors.  I stick my head in, push the door open and join the plateu ahead.  You listeners are wonderful supporters, and I thank you.  With out you, there is no me.  You've grabbed me and brought my spirits high.  I thank you all.  Well, most anyway. Its been a wonderful 5 years, and will be more wonderful as The Jennifer Goodman Show joins me on Sunday nights.  We're going into our SIXTH season with adjustments for the TBI.  No retirement, but start writing classes next week with an already full plate.  But I always wanted another scoop so I'll be around, and hopefully she'll allow me to be a co host too. I'll never be as pretty as her.... Let's skip through the past and rock on forward...

August 16, 2008:  "A day of intamacy'' Having a good, good time after a looooong week of work, officially - 6 times - I killed myself.  Unrealistic Belief became the prayer of my world for a week, then 'yank' I was pulled off ''the machine''.  As all the family, friends and minister circled my bed, a funny thing happened.  I lived.   Funnier, my father MADE me live for the following years.  Misunderstood understandings allowed an unrealistic belief recovery, with a smile.  God took the beer out of my hands, and a smile on my face. Five years on Brain Injury Radio, I've been wishing a smile comes on yours. My throat is soar/rough/crackly.  The trouble is not in your set. Jennifer Goodman and TMDS 'staff' will be in Indianapolis late this week to attend the Central Indiana Alliance Against Hate conference.  Race, Creed, Religion has long been mentioned with with hate.  I've seen a lot of hate from and too brain injury society.  We won't hate this. (424) 243-9540 will let folks listen to the show, or online's BlogTalk, TBI Survivors Network and my home, the Downtown Milton Studio resting place of Brain Injury Radio.
