About the Show


Speaking With…” is a dynamic 30-minute program that gives the audience the opportunity to be informed, inspired and entertained. The program features a variety of topics addressed by guests from many walks of life. Physicians, musicians, authors, businesswomen and more have been hosted on this lively show.

The main purpose of Speaking With… is to encourage harmony by affording listeners the chance to hear about the challenges and triumphs faced by various races and both genders as well as various professions to name a few. At times I facilitate discussion of topics and issues that tend to divide people along racial lines or gender lines. At other times I facilitate discussions that encourage the listeners to take interest in health matters as it pertains to various sectors of our community. But then I also host guests who offer words of inspiration along a varied list, including overcoming spousal abuse. Again, my primary goal is to encourage people to embrace one another. My approach is a positive one that many find appealing.

Speaking With… also serves as a venue to challenge the way we view situations and determine how our views affect our responses to real world circumstances as we discuss our positions regarding male/female relationships, political stances, religious positions and more. With this venue, I choose not to mandate any particular position. Rather, I encourage each listener to identify their own position and the reason for that position while also evaluating for themselves whether they have approached the topic with integrity and fairness.

Previous Guests have included:

  • Dr. Eric Holgate, Pharmacist
  • Dr. Verle Valentino, Orthopedic Surgeon, formerly of Medical College of Georgia
  • Mr. Ron Cross, Chairman of Columbia County Board of Commissioners
  • Ms. Martha Munizzi, Stellar Award Winning Recording Artist
  • Dr. Mark Crear, Olympic Medalist, Motivational Speaker, Clergyman
  • Mayor Deke Copenhaver (appeared during his first mayoral campaign)
  • Mr. Marvin Woods, Chef, Host of Home  Plate as Seen on Turner South

  • Senator Edward Tarver, Attorney (appeared during his first campaign for Senator)
  • Ms. Sarah Dewees, Director of Native Assets Research Center, First Nations Development Institute (addresses issues concerning Native American Indians)

As you can see from this partial listing of guests, the guest list is diverse as is the list of topics. And listeners say they enjoy the variety. Speaking With… is a program that people from many areas of life find easy to embrace.
