At the start of a relationship, how important is that first kiss? This episode begins with some interesting statistics that show the significance and long-term potential of being a good kisser. Source: The Science of Kissing by Sheril Kirshenbaum (https://amzn.to/3J35RkN). 

By now you have heard terms like cryptocurrency, blockchain technology, digital art, and NFTs (non-fungible tokens). But how important is it for you to really know and understand them? Maybe you should be buying them. After all, these digital assets do seem to be here to stay and some people are predicting they will transform the global financial system. Here to make these things simple and understandable is Ric Edelman. Barron’s ranked him the nation’s #1 Independent Financial Advisor. He has written several books on personal finance and holds two patents for financial product innovation. Ric is host of the radio show and podcast “The Truth About Your Future” (https://www.thetayf.com/) and his latest book is called The Truth About Crypto: A Practical, Easy-to-Understand Guide to Bitcoin, Blockchain, NFTs, and Other Digital Assets (https://amzn.to/3SHW8nu).

Seems like there is always something to talk about when it comes to The Academy Awards. Controversies, rivalries, egos and ambition all come together on that one night and who knows what will happen. Joining me to talk about the fascinating and sometimes juicy history of the Oscars is Michael Shuman. He is a staff writer at The New Yorker and author of the book Oscar Wars: A History of Hollywood in Gold, Sweat, and Tears (https://amzn.to/3YrrH6h).
