The Dr. Ward Bond Show

Sidelined examines the many ways in which some women manage and sometimes mismanage their healthcare.

Susan Salenger explores how women, typically the medical gatekeepers for their families, tend to be extremely dedicated about taking care of themselves, yet at the same time inadvertently undermine their own care.

They may hesitate to ask doctors the necessary questions and don’t always comply with the doctor’s instructions. 

Susan Salenger’s research reveals how conflicted many women are about the medical decisions they ultimately make.

Disney reinvented entertainment, Edison lit up our lives with the light bulb, … and Leo Fender revolutionized the sound of music.

If you think about it, Leo Fender has influenced every person on earth today – at least everyone who has ever heard a song.

Guitar Player Magazine declared that Clarence Leo Fender is the father of the solid body guitar. Not only did he invent it, but Leo’s guitars were used by everyone from Elvis Presley to Eric Clapton and from Jimmy Page to Jimmy Hendrix. 

Indeed, Rolling Stone Magazine published a list of the world's top 100 guitarists, and 90 of them used one of Leo's guitars on stage, and the others used guitars that copied Leo's inventions and concepts.

The highest price ever spent for music memorabilia was not for Michael Jackson’s glove or Elvis’ jumpsuit. It was for a Fender Stratocaster, which sold for over $4 million.

Our guest today is Dr. Randall Bell, we’re going to get a rare look into the world of Leo Fender, The Quiet Giant Heard Around the World.
