The 1980s were like the Wild West for some inner city biz owners. Hold ups, stake outs, and pistol whipping were all in a days work at Apollo liquor store. Here the stories that shaped the young first generation family as they worked day and night to create a better life for themselves. It would be the car on the back of a tow truck that God would time perfectly to keep the patriarch and son #4 alive. Who cut the brake lines? Hmmm, we may never really know.

Greg takes us through the marriage between America and alcohol. We all follow the drinking gourd at some point in our life and each of her bit by the same liquid at some point. Let’s take a look at the lifestyles, the draw, the realities, and the demons that the “spirits” can muster. Bottoms up!!

Merry Christmas Everyone! Here’s a Christmas wish from me to you, with memories to share, and the story of a little girl who’s broken heart could have been sheltered if we just got her to my childhood home on Christmas Eve. And of course, my mother, who gifted people out of the blue, and with so much thought you’d swear she was a prophet. Keep your loved ones close. And may the beauty of this Christmas be one of specialness.

In order to follow a dream, one must reprogram the fear modules society installs in our psyche. Greg’s years in bookstores helped recode his mind. It would prove essential in the birth of his dreams, and a Rastafarian mystic man would arrived to tell him the “one word wisdom” that would change him forever. And it can change you to.

Nicole Rickard and Dion Italiano stopped by with baby Naiah and laid down the truth about the worlds response to COVID and all the new changes we are seeing in our lives. They have been in Hawaii for years, so arriving to the North East during a time like this has tested their new family to the max! They’re moving forward, but they can’t ignore what they see as air quality disturbances, fearful living, and a little girl who’s gonna grow up in The New World. They were my first guests, and we dined on some rosemary chicken, drank the wine, and poured out our hearts. Good people!

Natures struggles are meant to make us happier and stronger and help us live the days with purpose. Luxury and comfort maybe one of the most deceptive ideas for happiness. Love is also a dragon that needs taming, and sometimes, the fight may not be popular, but worth it in the end.

Human compassion helps us all find peace in a rather complex world. Learn Love has been a proven method that allows each person to feel welcome, and looks back at the early years to see how and what trauma may have peeked it head and scared us.

Greg’s asking the world to look closely at the changes and slow loss of freedom that COVID has brought upon us. Can we find mercy and compassion for the biz owners who are getting decimated? Let’s come together and prove America’s freedoms are some of the worlds most profound.
