It’s Halloween and we have a terrific episode for you!

We interview Dwight Little, film maker and author of the new book Still Rolling: Inside the Hollywood Dream Factory. Dwight has directed some great movies and television shows including Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers and Murder at 1600. He also released a new film called Natty Knocks starring Robert Englund. His new book takes readers along his 40-year career via insightful stories and valuable practical advice for aspiring filmmakers today. Some of his other work includes Rapid Fire and Marked for Death. 

This is probably one of our most favorite episodes that any horror or movie fan absolutely must listen to. Dwight shares stories, talks about the current state of Hollywood, the current horror genre and even lets the guys act like fanboys as they ask about their favorite movies and shows.

Tonight, our guest is Dr. Otto E. Stallworth Jr., MD, MBA.

Dr. Stallworth was born and raised in Birmingham, Alabama during the 1940s and 50s. He crossed the Alabama state line for the first time at 16 to attend college. He was the first college graduate in his family and soon after obtained a medical degree at the age of 24 and later an MBA.

Outside of medicine, he had several businesses, including Oh Yes! Management and Hollywood Fries Restaurant.  As a personal manager, he discovered and secured a record deal for Taste of Honey, the first Black artist in the 22-year history of the Grammys to win the award for “Best New Artist,” for their mega-hit song “Boogie Oogie Oogie” in 1979. The Hollywood Fries Restaurant, in the Westwood/UCLA area, opened in 1999 with his partners Hollywood Casting Director Reuben Cannon, actor Danny Glover, and Pepsi executive Olden Lee. 

In his new memoir, “Are you a N**** or a Doctor?” Dr. Stallworth shares details of his life that are evocative of friendships, falling in love, and marriages; and a great variety of occupations ranging from discovering and managing a famous music group to driving a city bus on his first trip to Chicago to becoming a doctor.

We enjoyed our conversation with Dr. Stallworth and were thoroughly impressed by his life’s journey. 

 We also discuss the recent ruling by SCOTUS regarding affirmative action in College Admissions.

In this episode:

 
Tonight, our guest is Kam Majd. Kam is an Edgar® Award-nominated author of character-driven, edge-of-your-seat suspense novels. In addition to being a writer, Kam has been an airline pilot for 44 years, 35 of which have been at American Airlines, with his most recent position as a Boeing 777 captain. 

Kam’s Edgar Award nominated book, Highwire, is a real thrill ride! Captain Kate Gallagher has a plane to land and a daughter to get home to. But first, she’s got to contend with a confrontational co-pilot, blizzard conditions, and something far more treacherous–a plane contaminated with a lethal computer virus. When the controls refuse to respond to her commands, she has two choices: Turn the plane around or trust her instinct.

One day later, the world’s press is picking through the mangled remains of Flight 394 and crying pilot error. To clear her name, Kate must endure humiliation and blame, and the risk to herself and her family, until she comes face to face with the madman who created the virus. There, she uncovers a shocking conspiracy that has already zeroed in on a new target: another plane, another deadly disaster.

With only seconds to save the 262 passengers on board, Kate Gallagher will fight her way back into the pilot’s seat and up into the air, in a life-and-death race against time, and a computer virus that is wired, running, and ready to kill again.

And the price for saving all those lives may be only one… hers.

Listen to our conversation with Kam, and make sure to purchase his book, Highwire. For more info, check out the links below:
