Arroe Collins Like It's Live

In a time when personal safety is increasingly top of mind, author and former CIA officer and security expert Tim Beard launches LOOK TWICE, a groundbreaking new series of three books designed to give readers the practical tools and mindset to stay alert, aware and protected in their everyday lives. Volume I, available January 27, 2026; Stillwater Books, lays the foundation with Tim’s signature “Look Twice Mindset” — a simple yet powerful approach to recognizing risks before they become threats. In Tim’s timely new books, he introduces the essential security concepts that anchor the entire series. With clear, relatable guidance, he shows readers how to stay Safe at Home and at Work, from identifying vulnerabilities to mastering basic precautions that greatly reduce risk. The book also offers step-by-step advice for navigating ordinary outings — what Tim calls Out in Town — including running errands, using ATMs and moving through public spaces confidently and safely.Recognizing that transportation plays a major role in many safety incidents, Tim devotes a full section to Transportation Awareness. Readers will learn how to stay secure while driving, riding subways, managing encounters with road rage, and more. Each chapter blends real-world insight with actionable strategies, empowering readers to make safer decisions in every environment.“Safety isn’t about fear — it’s about preparation,” says Tim. “My goal with the LOOK TWICE series is to help people build everyday habits that increase awareness, protect their families and give them peace of mind.”Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.

A heartfelt memoir about the search for religion and identity “I’m not Jewish.” For years, that’s what David Weill told anyone who asked about his religious background. Yes, his father was a Jew who had left Nazi Germany as a boy. But his mother was a Southern Baptist. Growing up in New Orleans, religion wasn’t something his family discussed, let alone practiced. As an adult, he developed a fervent zeal and profound devotion to his work as a specialist in organ transplants. Transplantation was all he needed to define and fulfill him—until a crisis shook him to the core. In 2015, after the simultaneous unraveling of his carefully crafted career and the death of his father, Weill began to doubt everything, including his purpose in life. While grappling with emotional pain and sinking deeper into despair, he began to suffer perplexing physical symptoms. In his moment of crisis, he was seized by a strong desire to practice a formal religion. But for Weill, the real question was, Which religion? Eventually, he chose Catholicism and was baptized at age fifty. He found solace in heart-to-heart talks with a priest and his daughters’ happiness at having the whole family at church together. Everything was fine—until 2020, when he learned that his mother had converted to Judaism right before marrying his father. He was born a Jew. And in the eyes of the Jewish faith, he would always be Jewish. That realization sparked his second quest. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.

The great soul singer Sam Cooke was killed on December 11, 1964, and, surprisingly, his tragic early death never seems to be mentioned in the same breath as other early rock and roll luminaries who died young, like Buddy Holly, Otis Redding, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison and many others. Perhaps it’s because of the brutal and suspicious nature surrounding it. The smooth, joyful soul singer was gunned down in the office of a seedy Los Angeles motel after being robbed by an alleged prostitute. In his latest article for the Strange Brew, Scott G. Shea celebrates the life, music and legacy of Sam Cooke through six songs that tell his story.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.
