    It’s a New Year

    Today’s program is a slightly different structure. As we walk into the next year, several people came to share their hopes for themselves, their family and friends - with all of you. It is an uplifting show that demonstrates the amount of care and generosity that exists all around us. The program is our personal thank you to all who have been a part of the ReThreading Madness family whether as a guest or behind the scenes making sure the show goes out each week. This has been a hell of a year – monumental even. A big part of that was being able to chat with some of the most incredible people from around the world. As the host of ReThreading Madness, I consider myself blessed because of it. But also because of you, our listeners, who join us each week.

    Today we are joined by Jodi Grey, Charlene Hellson, Kayle Ackerman, Jackie Crowchild, Michelle Oucharek Deo, Peter Morin, Kagan Goh, Alex Sangha and Amy Avalon.

    Our inspirational music today was by the Animals, Sara Barielles, Anna Glendening, Rachel Platten, Josh Groban, Kelly Clarkson, Zach Williams, Scott Callum, Peter Morin, and as always Shari Ulrich sings us into and out of each program each week.

    Bernadine’s personal message to our listeners: So here is wishing you a year full of caring, compassionate and supportive people, safe and gentle havens, along with personal growth, brave new insights, spontaneous, joyful fun and a trust in yourself that grows every day. But most of all she wishes for you a peace which settles into your heart as though it has always belonged there.

  • Getting Over the Wrong Relationship with Sean Bridges
    Nov 27 2024
    Sean Bridges, award-winning screenwriter and author, had never been married until at the age of 55, he found, what he described as, the love of his life. He was about to be married. He was her fourth husband (to-be). Then something in his gut started shaking him awake to the realization that his life and his own personage had morphed into something he didn’t recognize; didn’t feel comfortable in. He packed his bags and left the million-dollar home he and his fiancé lived in. Traded it for a bartending job in a small town. And slowly found himself again. He talks with us about what happened and what he did to put the pieces back together.

    Sean Bridges is a Stephen King Dollar Baby with his festival winning audio production of One for the Road. His latest screenplay, Beginner's Luck, is a 2024 award-winner at the San Antonio and Austin Film Festivals. His new novel, Gunbarrel Highway, will be released as a paperback, e-book and audio book on November 20th. He lives and works in the Texas Hill Country, in central Texas USA
