Fond Memories: Being on “Good Company”
January 30th, 2013
Steve Edelman and Sharon Anderson, hosts of “Good Company†(the highest-rated local talk show in the country), talked with Tom and the gang on the Tom Barnard Podcast #118. Both Tom and I appeared a number of times on that show. I have fond memories of being a frequent guest on their set at KSTP and pictured here with Tom Arnold and Roseanne Barr talking about liposuction. We also filmed a few episodes of their show “Grow It†in my garden in Wayzata.
Long before reality television, “Good Company†was way ahead of the current trend and sent a crew to broadcast from my operating room. They filmed me performing cosmetic surgery, what might have been the first facelift footage to air live.
Steve has a new project in development to help guide baby boomers navigate their retirement. He co-developed the Unfinished Business Workshop by blending state-of-the-art video storytelling and computer assessment technology with the dynamic Esalen workshop processes.
Easy Tips to Avoid the Flu
January 28th, 2013
Here are some easy tips to follow to help avoid getting or spreading the flu this season:
Get vaccinated against the flu. While flu vaccines aren’t 100% perfect, not getting one provides no protection at all.
Cover your cough and your sneezes, avoid touching your face.
Wash your hands with soap and water before eating.
Sick? Stay home from work or school. If your child is sick, keep them home from daycare or school.
The MN Dept of Health has more information about the flu.
