EPISODE #110 | MARK GERARDOT | IRREPARABLE
Sunday Sep 08, 2019
Sunday Sep 08, 2019
“I never could have expected to be a voice for depression, mental illness or suicide prevention,” says Mark Gerardot, this week’s guest on American Real. “But you don’t always get to choose the causes with which you get involved. Sometimes they choose you.”
“On April 23, 2018, the life I had known for 49 years abruptly ended. Irreparably damaged. On the precipice of ending a 24-year marriage, it’s very foundation crumbling, my wife (Jennair Gerardot) violently took the life of the woman with whom I had unexpectedly fallen in love (Meredith Chapman). And then she took her own. I have spent many sleepless nights and months, desperately trying to piece it all together. How did I and so many others miss the signs?” says Gerardot.
His story appeared September 6, 2019 on ABC’s 20/20. Now, for the first time since the tragedy, Mark Gerardot sits down to share his story in his own words.

Welcome to Episode #109 of American Real. This week, we bring you author, Pamela Rauch, who since childhood, has been fascinated with anything supernatural or macabre.
After writing her first novel in 2003, Chasing Snow Angels, and since retiring from her career in 2016, Pamela has gone on to take on writing full time. Throughout the years she promised herself she would write a compelling vampire story that was different from the rest.
Dracula Unmasked is a vampire tale with a modern twist, offering a new perspective on the conflicted life of a creature of the night with too much heart.

EPISODE #108 | Richard Cassaro | THE MISSING LINK
It’s one thing to think about our ancestors, but it’s entirely different to consider the impact of ancient cultures and civilizations. On this week’s episode of American Real, we welcome Madrid-based author, lecturer, filmmaker, and tour guide from New York City, Richard Cassaro. In our first-ever lecture-style podcast, Richard takes us through a presentation of his findings of the triptych temple, the cycling of the ages and the GodSelf icon. He also uncovers his study of the Freemasons and how they’ve inherited the ‘wisdom tradition’ of the ancients, while diving into detail about the missing link.

MO REESE TAYLOR | LEADER OF THE BAND | WORLD PREMIERE EPISODE
-
Welcome to Episode # 107, where this week we sit down with musician, Mo Reese Taylor. When I think back to my youth, there are some people who stand out as "always being there" and 'Reesie T' is certainly one of those special people. Today’s guest takes us back to the good-old-days and tells us how he got his start in music by sneaking into his older brother’s room, practicing on his turntable equipment. I was able to sit down with an old friend and learn so much about him that I never knew, such as having a family full of competitors and the impact his mother made on his life. What I like most about Reese’s story is that he’s the kid who had a love for music from a young age, and has been able to carry out his lifelong passion, while passing on his musical talents to the next generation.

IMRAN BATTLA | CULTURE PERMEATES FOCUS | WORLD PREMIERE EPISODE #106
-
This week on American Real, where we welcome Imran Battla who conducts his work in the same building where we film our episodes.

Our guest is someone who has a pulse on the inner workings of a community, highlighting collaboration and what bringing people together can do for birthing new ideas and events within a locale. Imran did a bit of role play, quizzing me about where I was when we were first introduced. Tune in to see how that played out. Then, Imran digs into his upbringing, his college degree in human development and his current position in cloud computing, supporting businesses and providing solutions using the tools of Salesforce.

ALISA TROCCIA | A HOPEFUL HEART | WORLD PREMIERE EPISODE #105
-
Welcome to Episode #105 of American Real, where this week we welcome Alisa Troccia, who says, “Faith is the base of everything I do.” This young entrepreneur drops an episode full of genuine value that I’m confident will inspire people across the board. Alisa provides an overview in how she takes control of her desires and puts them into action, be it through writing down her goals, creating her vision board, or manifesting her career moves. Alisa discusses her seven year struggle with infertility, and how she created a support group, Hopeful Hearts, to help women going through the same. Our guest discusses the power of reaping the harvest of the seeds that we sew, the hard work behind the glamor, the pain of divorce and how she approaches social media for her clients and herself. Finally, Alisa tells us about the legacy she wants to leave, and why she approaches everything with grace.

KYREE OLIVER | SEE YOUR WORTH | WORLD PREMIERE EPISODE #104
-
Kyree Oliver stumbled into marketing at the age of 21 after leaving a college football scholarship to pursue something he felt was much more impactful. This didn't show up as marketing at first, but rather as a desire to understand people on a deeper level. He spent the years from 19-21 interviewing over 800 people on life, love, money, death, fear and so much more!
-
Watch this episode to learn how Kyree realized quickly that marketing was really just high-level critical thinking on human behavior and patterns and how he had honed these exact skills over his football career as well as those years of interviews.

DARREN GRIFFITH | LEAD DON'T FOLLOW | EPISODE #102
-
Welcome to this week’s episode of American Real, where we bring you the story of Darren Griffith, who at the age of twelve had a health scare from which doctors gave him only ten years to live. Nearly three decades later, Darren has been thriving and says, “That’s when the new Darren was born.” Eleven years ago, he started an apparel business, Paragon, promoting it in an unorthodox way through fashion shows at rock bars, rodeos and getting celebrity support — from actors to band members — to rock his shirts. His company is built after its defined name… a model of excellence.
