Eli Beer is a pioneer, social entrepreneur, President and Founder of United Hatzalah of Israel. In thirty years, the organization has grown to more than 6,500 volunteers who unite together to provide immediate, life-saving care to anyone in need - regardless of race or religion. This community EMS force network treats over 730,000 incidents per year, in Israel, as they wait for ambulances and medical attention. Eli’s vision is to bring this life-saving model across the world. In 2015, Beer expanded internationally with the establishment of branches in South America and other countries, including “United Rescue” in Jersey City, USA, where the response time was reduced to just two minutes and thirty-five seconds.

We'd love to hear from you! Please send us a Text Message! A psychedelic experience with a tree and a perplexing new song title dreamed up by Jenny Burton, recording artist of over three and a half decades, got me to become a dedicated advocate for the preservation of forests and the trees of Planet Earth. It didn’t hurt one bit that this previous year wife, Julia, and I planted 26 new trees in our home soil. A new song, sung by both Jenny and me and a fabulous video treatment by brilliant WFM Graphics designer, Skye Malone rounds out Episode #40 with a wondrous offering that we’re all very proud of.

We'd love to hear from you! Please send us a Text Message! This episode is entitled You And I Not all love stories have happy endings. Sometimes, no matter how hard both parties try, it was just not meant to be. This is an uncharacteristically short (just 15 minutes) podcast whose purpose is to introduce a new song written and performed by Peter Link. It's a love song with an unexpected ending. It's one of those sad but true moments that can sneak up on you in life and leave its indelible mark on one’s life. On a whole different level it is the celebrative product of a major overhaul of Link Recording studios – the first song to come from Link’s new and greatly improved mixing console. All in all, it’s a fascinating listen!

We'd love to hear from you! Please send us a Text Message! This episode is entitled Troubles Be Gone – How to get through it… I had had a rough day. The things that were supposed to happen, didn’t happen. The things that never were supposed to happen, happened. It happens to all of us. Yeah, life on planet Earth can be a roller coaster ride. I thought to myself, “Well, what do we do now“? How do we turn defeat into victory? Today, I’m going to introduce you to a surefire starter kit. It’s not a permanent solution, but it is, for most of us humans, a wondrous temporary solution. It requires little effort and is definitely fun and satisfying. Recently I applied my solution and, as usual, it worked like a dream. It worked so well, that I decided to write a song about it. Join me as I demonstrate that solution right before your very eyes!

Series 1, Episode 37: Brent Nicholson Earle - Looking Back In Time 39:48

39:48

We'd love to hear from you! Please send us a Text Message! Recently, in August of 2024, we released a Watchfire Music Theater Of The Imagination video entitled Brent Nicholson Earl, A Most Extraordinary Man. It is an amazing story of determination and triumph, and it memorializes the 1986 fundraising Close Upon The Hour Concert in New York City that helped finance Brent Nicholson Earle, and The American Run For The End Of Aids, his historic run around the circumference of the United States, bringing National attention to the plight and potential solutions of the AIDS epidemic. In the video, I tell the story of this lifelong friend who spent his life championing Gay rights. The story, which was the main feature in a decade ending People Magazine Special, is a doozy. In remembering back, there are so many angles to the telling of the story, that I found it impossible in the video to tell the complete story. Consequently, in October of 2024 I interviewed Brent Nicholson Earl and asked him to look back once again at this time in his life nd recall some of the amazing insights and special moments of his historic run.a This podcast, an addendum to the video, does just that. Watch the video!

We'd love to hear from you! Please send us a Text Message! The phone rang. I picked it up and the lady on the other end said, “Hi, I am the director of the Creative Arts program at Camp Newfound Owatonna. I’m looking for a teacher to put together a music class for this summer's creative arts program at camp. I’m wondering if you might know someone who might be interested.” Long story short, needing a vacation, I took the job. A week or so at this camp in the cool state of Maine woods by a lake in August seemed to totally make sense. The story of how I spent my summer vacation – teaching a music class to 12 dedicated very adult students. The trials and triumphs; the obstacles and revelations. The building of a song from the ground up and the ultimate joys of performance. A walk in the sunlight; A Walk In The Woods.

Series 1, Episode 35: Much Ado About Nothing 34:59

We'd love to hear from you! Please send us a Text Message! From the New York Times: Quote: “Much Ado About Nothing is a feast! Joseph Papp’s 1972 CBS television production of the New York Shakespeare Festival’s staging of Shakespeare’s rollicking comedy is brassy, bouncy, and all–together entertaining. Featuring Sam Waterston, Douglas Watson and the Tony Award performances of Kathleen Widdoes and Barnard Hughes, Papp’s turn of the century version was critically acclaimed and enormously popular with audiences. Much Ado About Nothing originated at the open-air Delacorte Theater in Central Park. It was such a hit in the park that producer, Joseph Papp, that fall, transferred the entire show to Broadway and there it became the longest running Shakespeare production in Broadway history. In 1972, 20 million people saw the broadcast of this CBS – TV IBM sponsored production of Shakespeare’s classic tale of romance, mistaken identity, and the battle of the sexes. Probably more people saw it on that one night than had seen it previously in history.

We'd love to hear from you! Please send us a Text Message! Miracle Of Faith is a Suite for orchestra and three voices – a man, a woman and a young boy. We like to think of it as yet another Musical Theater of the Imagination special project, and we invite you to exercise your imaginations as you listen to this ancient tale of songs and instrumentals. It is a trilogy of songs that look at the age-old story of the five loaves and two fishes told in the four Gospels of the Bible. It covers three points of view of the same story coming from three different characters. It needs to be listened to in one 40 minute sitting as one continuous piece of music. The performance itself will be presented in a second, Part Two, episode and is available now. Please listen to Part One first.

But then again, I believe deeply in life eternal. So, what’s to worry? But … Just what is it that goes on? What stays behind? Where do I go from here? Heaven knows ... This one thing I do know, however: The purpose of that album was to open our eyes to the timelessness of our future. After all, isn’t that what the basis of Heaven is all about? Moving on.
