From 2011: Dennis Farina was an impact guy. When this prominent actor hit the screen, no matter what the role, he owned it. I don’t know what he was like in real life, but in TV and films alike, he was always bigger than life, as he was in "The Last Rites of Joe May" -- and this interview.

From 2010: If you’re not familiar with Noureen DeWulf,her film and TV appearances include her role in "Ghosts of Girlfriends Past" with Matthew McConaughey and ending with her “Chuck” battle moment. She starred in the 2007 Oscar winning short film, "West Bank Story." She co-starred in "The Back-Up Plan" with Jennifer Lopez, the "The 41-Year-Old Virgin Who Knocked Up Sarah Marshall and Felt Superbad About It," "Anger Management" with Charlie Sheen and is currently on "Living Biblically."

My guest today, Stephen Snyder, MD, is a New York sex and couples therapist, psychiatrist, and author of a new book, Love Worth Making: How to Have Ridiculously Great Sex in a Long Lasting Relationship. In it, Dr. Snyder shares real life tales of men and women whose sex lives have hit bumps in the road and how he helped them resolve a wide variety of challenges and complications. The book is more about emotional positions than physical ones.

From 2010: Rob Sachs takes a different approach to teaching you something you don’t already know or understand. On his National Public Radio podcast, “What Would Rob Do?” — now in its fifth year — Sachs tackles the big challenges of the day, such as “What would you do if you clogged the toilet at a friend’s house?” Oh, the horrors of that one. Or consider an example from his show, in which he researched how to successfully eat hot peppers.

Most people are tickled when a Wikipedia page appears and points out their career highlights. But what if Wikipedia had 200 individual pages each devoted to a fictional character created by a single person? I'm not referring to Stan Lee, the Godfather of Marvel Comics, either. Nope, the man with 200 Wikipedia pages to his credit - everyone from Gambit and Cable to Kitty Pryde, Strong Guy and the New Mutants - is Chris Claremont, father of the modern X-Men comics, films, cartoons and TV series.

From 2008: Daniel Pink has made a career of being first on business themes over the last seven years, ever since publication of "Free Agent Nation" in May 2001. His theory then? That more of us will be working for ourselves in the future. Well, it’s now the future, so I’ll ask him whether that came true. He also wrote "A Whole New Mind." But Dan’s newest book may be his greatest leap yet: a manga-style graphic novel titled "The Adventures of Johnny Bunko: The Last Career Guide You’ll Ever Need."

From 2012: David Giuntoli isn’t a household name in every American household… so far. But the star of NBC’s fairytale-derived horror story, “Grimm,” is recognized in just enough A.C. Nielsen monitored homes to make his show this season’s quiet breakthrough. As a Portland, Oregon, detective named Nick Burkhardt, Giuntoli plays the latest in a long line of supernatural detectives policing the strange creatures in his town.

From 2008: Danielle Nicolet is joining the cast of “The Starter Wife” on USA Network this season as Liz Marsh, a new friend of Molly Kagan, the lead character played by Debra Messing. Nicolet's first major role was on the hit series "Family Matters." She was then cast as Samuel L. Jackson's daughter in "National Lampoon's Loaded Weapon 1" and in the ABC Movie of the Week "The Jacksons: An American Dream." She was also a regular on "3rd Rock From The Sun."

From 2012: If you see only one action adventure film this summer about Mexican drug cartels selling meth and the American fly guys who deliver it via high speed jet prototypes, make it Kill Speed. I was pleasantly surprised by this new indie film by writer, producer, director Kim Bass, which will be released on DVD on June 12. It’s got a solid, compact story, and a smooth intermingling of flying sequences with computer-generated pieces as jets zip through the concrete canyons of downtown Los Angeles.

From 2009: If your name is Rene Syler, this is probably a pretty good week. In the midst of preparing to co-host BET’s live coverage of the Jan. 20th inauguration of Barack Obama, it was announced that Syler—a former co-host of the CBS “Early Show”—would be returning to regularly scheduled television programming as host of a new show, “Live Large, Spend Small.” But that can’t be any more entertaining than the show she does now on her Facebook video log.
