In December of 2020 I contracted COVID-19. Because I'd managed to evade this disease for so long, I assumed I'd some how be immune. I won't say I was near death, but I've never been as sick in my entire life. Little did I know that I'd still be...

It's almost over! I don't know about you, but I'm ready for this election season to be done and over with. The negative ads, arguing with friends and family members over who they're supporting, and just the overall uneasiness that seems to have...

Today ADHD or Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder is widely recognized as a legitimate condition that affects millions of people the world over, but this wasn't always the case. I remember it as a catch all diagnosis to explain away childr...

It's hard to believe that the Israel-Palestine-Hamas conflict has been raging since October 7th of last year, but here we are with no end in sight. I'm always searching for information to help me better understand the origins of this conflict, ...

As my 3 part series on bullying comes to an end, this final episode features Krissy from the UK. Krissy survived bullying as a child, only to find herself as the bully later in adulthood. I found Krissy's story interesting because once you've b...

Every election cycle seems to divide our country more and more, and while I'd love to say things are different in 2024, I fear we are heading for even darker days. With an attempted assassination on former President Trump last Saturday, it's ha...

It never occurred to me that bullying might be different in other cultures, but that's exactly what I found out while talking to "Joe," my guest on this episode about bullying. Joe is from Malaysia, and the world he describes is eat or be eaten...

While I was doing my research for the topic on bullying, one thing became very clear early on in the process.  The vast majority of us has experience with bullying. Weather it was as a bystander watching the other guy get pummeled daily, o...

Here are some quick facts about prostate cancer: An estimated 164,690 men in the United States will be diagnosed with prostate cancer this year. The average age of diagnosis is 66. The disease rarely occurs before the age of 40. ...

Season 5 of The Point of It All podcast is here, but it almost didn't happen. In fact I was going to end the show after last season's final episode because I was burnt out! There's quite a bit of work that goes into producing a podcast, and qui...

Four years after winning Master Chef Season 10, my sister Dorian Hunter has been busting her butt to parlay that win into something even bigger. In this episode we talk with Chef Dorian about the concept of the book, the struggles she had to en...

Admittedly so I was ignorant to the details of this conflict, but over the last couple of days I made a concerted effort to learn more about the history of this battle, and the more I learned the more my opinion moved regarding who's right and ...

I love following politics. I like the back and forth between elected officials, and watching democracy in action.  But I've made a concerted effort not to make my podcast all about politics because that'd be taking the easy way out, and no...

I've always admired authors.  There's just something about creating a piece of work, then putting it on display for the world to see.  Opening yourself up to all manners of criticism along the way can be quite a daunting proposition f...

When I sent out a call for a guest to talk about living through periods of homelessness, I received many offers to come on my podcast. Gregorio's story offered much more than living homeless, as you'll learn by listening to this episode. &nbs...

I follow politics pretty closely, and while I had a pretty good idea of what "Gerrymandering" is I still learned a few things from my guest, high school government teacher Patrick Creedy.  Patrick has been teaching for 20+ years, and he wa...

I've had many guests on my show, but Tahilla stands out as she's the first person that I've spoke to from Israel.  As a former member of the Israeli national judo team, she has an interesting story to tell.  In this conversation we ta...

If you spend enough time on Twitter and Facebook you'll never have a shortage of folks screaming about the need for a civil war, and how it's just time for this country to split along ideological factions.  I can't help but laugh because w...

The fact that we're still debating the concept of global warming is in and of itself a failure of mankind.  We've been told not to trust science, and that we should question everything we've learned about global warming up to this point.&n...

Whenever I hear the term "life coach" I'm often left thinking about Tony Robbins, and his hilarious cameo in the movie Shallow Hal.  Obviously there's more to being a life coach than what we see from Tony Robbins, so in this episode I get ...

I've been a general manager for well over 20 years, and just when I was beginning to think I had this profession pretty well in hand, COVID-19 struck.  Just like that everything I thought I knew was not longer applicable.  My "old sch...

Well, after a much need break away from the podcast I am back and hopefully better than ever! I've spent this time away to work on my YouTube channel, which you can check out here https://youtube.com/@thepointofitall7975. In this h...

I won't pretend to have all of the answers when it comes to putting an end to mass shootings, but I refuse to throw up my hands in exasperation claiming there's nothing anyone can do! This podcast is a result of my complete and utter disgust wi...

As Americans we tend to take our access to healthcare for granted. If we get hurt we call 9-1-1. If we become ill we rush to the emergency room, or make an appointment with our doctor, but there are millions of people around the world without t...

I've been able to meet some pretty cool people as a host of this podcast, but perhaps none as cool the guest on this show.  I've heard about housesitting as a way to help out a friend or relative, but as a way of life? No way! Well, it tur...
