On this episode I chatted with Sara Cunningham founder of Free Mom Hugs.  Sara talks about her experiences as a Christian Mom who struggled to accept her gay son Parker. "I’m a Christian mom with a gay kid living in Oklahoma saying enough is enough. If I don’t fight for my son (and his rights) like my hair is on fire, then who will? It’s time we celebrate our LGBTQ+ children. And I won’t stop until I no longer hear horror stories from the LGBTQ+ community and their mothers."

We talk about the journey of Free Mom Hugs. What started as a simple gesture is now a gift nationwide operation with chapters all over the country and even a movie coming! WHAAAAAT!?!?!

This is Dulce De Donke - Oklahoma Donkey Milk

On this episode I chatted with Saundra Traywick about How Donkey milk saved her daughters health. "Milking donkeys was never one of the goals for our life, but sometimes God throws a wrench in our best laid plans. And in the end, it all works out for the good." In 2014 Saundra's 6 year old daughter was diagnosed with PANDAS disease.(Pediatric Autoimmune Neuropsychiatric Disease Associated with Strep Throat) Doctors prescribes antibiotics for the next 13 years! Saundra stubbornly refused to accept this as the answer and went on the hunt for a cure. This is were donkey milk comes in. In other countries, donkey milk is well known for it's health benefits, but in America it was practically unheard of, made even more difficult to find since the donkey only gives a few ounces of milk a day, and only with a healthy baby to share the milk with. So Saundra did what any parents would and bought some donkeys. Now they have 30 on their property in Luther. And have started sharing their knowledge with others.

This is Steve Irby - KICKER Audio

On this episode I chatted with KICKER CEO Mr Steve Irby. In 1973, KICKER's Livin' Loud legacy began as a two-man operation, hand-building professional-speaker systems in a narrow one-car garage. With very few resources and an intense love for music, company founder and current president Steve Irby invented the mobile-stereo enclosure market from his Stillwater, Oklahoma community, when he developed the Original KICKER. It was the first full frequency-range speaker box designed specifically for cars and trucks. From that historic moment, delivering concert-like audio quality across a wide volume range with renowned bass and accurate sound has always been the KICKER way. 

As a continually evolving brand, KICKER reached new heights 35 years later with the development of “Lifestyle” home and personal products for digital media devices, which include Bluetooth® speaker systems, high-performance headphones and noise-isolating in-ear headsets.

KICKER graces the Stillwater skyline and has stayed true to the values from which the company was built. KICKER products are designed and shipped from a 280,000-square-foot facility that houses nearly 200 energetic individuals who constantly push the limits of audio-design technology and performance.

KICKER products are currently sold by approximately 1,200 authorized dealers in the United States, and export sales are managed through a network of distributors serving over 2,000 dealers in approximately 50 countries.

As audio continues to evolve, KICKER will continue to be on the industry's cutting edge, pushing the limits of audio design technology, performance and integration in the quest for ultimate sound.
