Didn't the great really. Make up artist of the stars to make it happen. He was made some of the most iconic women look fabulous from Jack deal with Elizabeth Taylor Crawford and Sharon Stone but now he wants to share that expertise with us with his peter Lama spinning there for you panto chemicals are specially formulated with firms vitamins and botanicals to nurture not harm a unique blend of Nature and Science for all skin and hair provide super For example it's 100 percent didn't care been for you and so pastry and no animal testing Peter salons were frequented by the elite Now Peter wants to share his secrets with you and me I don't Peter for you trust in his products and his dedication. To the lamas that time for products that are safe and effective let's look great together at the llama stock question 32383612 we did want to be alarmist but come. To love talking about what's happening in Hollywood and you know who else does that's Ryan McCormick He's co-founder of Goldman McCormick p.r. He is just the best guy because he looks for all the wild and crazy things that are happening in Hollywood I call it the entertainment chatter and boy does he find out all this good stuff he's a reputation management expertise with a lots of celebrities and athletes and authors and he's even handle little baby puppies. But Ryan is also an expert in crisis communications and I think that's exactly what we have going on today and our entertainment chatter how you do it right Mary Jane I am doing the believable real to be with you and we should have some fun today absolutely Well you know this is funny that you mention about the that new exercise bicycle that whatever the heck it is peloton I've seen those commercials and it's like excuse me this perfect lady gets on this peloton and she's going to get in shape she's already in shape right. I have to take Mary I was completely blown away that there was even a inkling of controversy about this that 1st off the bike is $2400.00 you get someone like that like obviously you know that's pretty expensive it is and I think that what they were doing with this is they were targeting a specific demographic I think that their the person they were targeting is affluent after people who are already taken that their health very seriously and I was watching this ad only thing like why would there be a controversy about it because you know obviously she's the person with a fee should look like she was already shape but somebody who like logs exercise and you actually size it's a gift that you give to yourself and I don't understand why I mean if you get that something sexist too or like you really need to get in shape or she was overweight or something I I don't know I found that it was. Like people are desperate to be outraged Yes And you know she's she's on the bicycle and then she goes did you look they her they said my name so you know this is a big deal because a mechanical thing says your name is already programmed it's a computer. He says buy them up out of a product usually most people are you know that's painted a lot and they like that in the one guy and they say right like what you said was really so are they getting they're dropping the commercial or what I don't know if it's like I think that the company was in such a state of shock because they feel very dainty there are so many times you know situations where companies do something and you ask what were they thinking. Where where where where they say that a lot every day on this issue a show right now where it is at the point where I think well there's now there's something completely wrong with people there's a there's there's a fault wrong the people talking about I didn't mean to interrupt but I was gonna say that was the perfect lead in to what we're going to be talking about today. So I don't tours really are the work of 25 is a very hard work Ok starting with doubt he'll be all seen how wonderful he is but Perry has had by the time of this cast for Bat net for ever he can already get a reputation be confrontational with directors and writers at one point that you do if you walk or had a very heated discussion about it forever and for that to that he's had a very very bad temper Oh and didn't seem to be able to control it I had that. Was probably it appears I don't have a base now numbered 19th and supplies me Mike my Reich Byron. The genius behind Wayne's world on our very little report that even though he's a comedian he's very bloody attempt to troll free that terrorizes telecast that was looking at a. Pair of the one time they could get so bad that the director for weight world actually had it was a sign of it. With every 3 years of the band really like why it depicts the work you know I was shocked by that. Well I wonder what his demands were become kind of q. To find out what his demands would be maybe I don't want to know. Who knows maybe we want to know what all kind of stuff you know and people get so they get the point they're very. You know they want to think yeah Edwards and you know some of us like rock stars and everything and they like gummy bears or something or jelly beans but they don't want any licorice jelly beans in there so they have to have somebody actually takes a look you want to do the crazy crazy they're not capable of doing it themselves of course Number 18 Katherine Heigl Yes I have to end this you know if my wife actually used this is my. Person that I like the least this is a personal imo I'm rooting for her to fail I just don't like or know not all about all her faster because I feel like her and Ashton Kutcher were the worst thing that ever happened to me. I really she's she's she's a little bit of a deal so over the years she's been called a lot of heat for offering criticism and one point she was on this show called raise that and what she decided to do is that she refused. Be nominated for a great. Writer You know she did like the writing as well. As me take it when you read it you know years later of watching t.v. And I see her in a Michael commercial where she got big like I was all excited I have a pretty I have to say you know I think if you're either or you're a jerk and you know I don't like good people should have that the Good Things Happen to Good People absolutely now number 17 with Gwyneth Paltrow and when you see her on talk show she seems pretty you will quickly as people say they can hide it because they can fake it apparently which is that the gym she wants when it's dry the showers will she get it so she won't come back which I used the water oh wow. Did she she she got like. A scholarly I mean I know the Mariah Carey you know then then build yourself a gym in your own house and stay with everybody make up what it takes what is Russell Crowe who's. Very good in his day. He seems to have an attitude. I had to make one of them to be fit me while I have the region anyway apparently he wants feud with George Clooney of the faculty appeared several t.v. Special. Fro called the sellout which prop the feud between them but he argues a lot to believe real life and very confrontational person according to the article made news is jealous he didn't get the commercial right number 15 and we don't got kids going to great kind present but apparently he's very dedicated to scratch but he's also a trophy to be having his way and that the article says that those who are male but you know he's very passionate yet the passion doesn't have to cover you know carry over to the nephew to other people. Well I'm going to tell you something the list is probably on a lot but I was a group jealous when I was going about getting married I was the one I was making all the bad by like what I needed to be done a certain way. By Oh it's like you're so lucky that we did out of carries around here because you would become like you know the diva of all the the group jewels little you know get a. Well you know but that's different it's a one time occasion and you want it to be perf Athan all that kind of stuff that I do but they're expecting like but they're saying well these are the bad girl. That's Ok I mean that and I leave got married he was on the side with the males kind of barking orders and I was over the females and barking orders you want to take one time we knew what was coming number 14 Steven Seagal to go really you have early in his heyday before b.p. Where you had a calmness of being Buddhist. Pretty difficult to work with he's regarded also as the worst guest hosts I've chatted and liable to reeling that you all read that several the books and did you have never seen him I didn't ever see. The rarely Arab talked extensively but he's not very animated you know he at one point he was a pretty big action star but he's been called out behind City pretty big you know they'll be they wanted to you know sort of waste I think maybe the artistic choice 13 Yep James Cameron I think that James Cameron should get a pass Jim Cameron. Penney's a control freak. Really what we didn't think that way but when you look at the product that he begged I say you know what let him do whatever he wants I mean all you have to think about Titanic right or alien or a moment or 2. Ok so he gets a pass. Sign and West doesn't write kind us is currently working a job loss he did to bring people closer to cut which I have to say this gentleman is very fast but I have no financial ard to believe you know what I mean I kept it all probably going though we can't tell us is did on the pill Anchorman 2 very short he refused to leave when he's told that he was not part of the stuck around to play the rap music enough to strike the film and they had no leave yet. The. Aaron stone number 11 is. Probably she's credibly intelligent but she's got it she's one of our forces it's one of the day that ish the stone wasn't yelling at her for blood or for the or another but apparently she's she's pretty tough to work with Oh Ok let me get this on this eagle has it not get in John's lately now Charlie Sheen number 10 doesn't surprise me at all. Over the state that. He is a talented actor he has an incredible person how ever say that easy or addict a destructive force very angry egocentric of the visual they said his textbook last so he has been somebody who's been challenged or but I mean a bad as to that he was fired he was the highest paid actor television fired the number one show and tell me that's credible he could do that and then forget when his belt that was happening yeah Lelie up at the higher lympics. It b.c. We've invested all ton of money into the up and the completely meltdown off ended the entire. Epic. Now number 9 Madama. So apparently is that. 3 wrecked she likes short people like certain people but the ones that don't like your apparently say that she's rude wasn't like your don't say that it's the focus of a lot of self. 8 again it's a name that I scan tell you they're still talking about Lindsey Lowe had I forgot about her I forgot about her till I guess the only time she comes up is when they take with like. She is when she when she was making films she showed up late for filming made a feint in the Met and. She was a bit of a diva So clearly she still wants to win the coveted lot be difficult to work with a big a difficult and happen Number 7 something we just passed before Paul Ryan carried out I think she probably got beat up on but she is said that she is the epic. She brought many people to tears because stage I think she had her 2 years eve a couple years ago. I dated I feel sorry for these people I really can't I don't know I you know what I resonate with some of these people a bit because I very passionate when it comes to my work comes to the the stuff they produce so if it doesn't go the short way I don't get really upset maybe they're very but never sick Christian Bale. Is epic epic meltdown. Terminator Salvation was played it was used as comedic things but. He's If you want to hang out with this fellow actors and one of the article and he believes keep this to others we character doesn't make a mess and make a bad person turn. Back the clock to keep this a. Little bit difficult to work with. The models Jennifer Aniston is next and I was surprised about that yet meet her as it seems really down to earth yet though I don't know either they say that she typically keeps the travel away from the set. Of the many personality and she's helicopters off the but you know this I don't know maybe that are going to give Jennifer Aniston a pass of this one because we don't really see any we don't see specific about it I don't really I've never really heard about Jennifer as to being a diva over the years besides do Pelly she smokes a lot of cannabis and she shouldn't be nasty then I'll be probably has some maybe this is one of those a bad like you know we have 20 on here we have for Jennifer Aniston but it doesn't I don't see any specific Jennifer Lopez I get a lot that we've heard about her being a diva we've heard about her being incredibly so. To the as far as this goes Her us is the thing to be on call 24 hours a day at the should be expected trade story who is part of all the need to be expected beach grateful and be treated like direct. Paralegal though you'll do everything the odds say yeah I don't really. Diva but she heard a man's voice Super Bowl 48 were so outrageous that medieval that worked with her. Hoped never have expressed it probably. Credibly difficult as it was that what it was but good. Teri Hatcher number 2. By being an integral part of Desperate Housewives for a long time friend she never going to long with fellow actresses it was reported narcissism to really like the cast those are out there at. So that they wanted to make sure that she was done I guess she was very difficult work with the last one yeah she'll look. You know that much of us you know the book when you're much thought of me in there you feel like it's what he really gifted actor but he's been very I don't lash out or he's doing something he's had a lot of public health down the page difficulties very kindly to us by themselves but he's also very difficult to work with some of the darn well I know you also had some stuff about 10 Christmas toys through the decades that let's hold that for next week when he does get there yes Ok well and thanks for all of the people I don't know why these people do what they do the money they've got fame and they go up you adoring them and then they act like a holes well they maybe they are I don't like I can't fault them 100 percent because I think that when you're in a profession where you to bend perfection you to better yourself the some of them could be really difficult to work with but they're probably hard of the cells and they're probably you know hard have a lot of inner conflict so it's whatever takes the fact is that you know some of the really successful some are and I guess the ones that have to talent I guess to get a pass like your chance candidate James Cameron can always say that I know that you know I like to say the to get over it you know and I'll get on with your life anyway I'll let you get on with your life too because I know you've got a busy week come and so I know where to having you next Friday thank you so much ought to be hearing a list of all that made by going to Outer Limits Radio dot com Gold dot com that you list as always you take good care and good luck with you next week but.

And it's that time again time to check in with none other than my Ts Bombala Mathias bumbles Hollywood find out what movies he seed and whether the good the bad or the ugly got a little bit of everything this week how do you do in the Ts I'm doing great Mary Jane and may we add here on the voice of the foothills and I am an f m k a little bit sad too today we lost her actually last night we lost a wonderful actor and Robert Walker Jr who of course was the son of Jennifer Jones and Robert Walker So he had a great pedigree in show business I hate to use the term pedigree when I'm talking about a human being but I think you get the point and it it was a it was an attractive kid he looked an awful lot and had a lot of the same mannerisms in his dad and of course some people remember him in the classic Easy Rider but it's really his 1st big hit was Elson polar a 1960. For he made a movie as late as last year beyond the darkness but he said we missed he survived by his wife Dawn and too bad relatively young guy who just died yesterday let's see I think he was in his seventy's he wasn't that leading up if he was born in 1940 so let's say we can do the math there but. You oh about 78 of 9 something. Just said you know we're losing them left and right as terrible. As it seems to be the case oh that's that's that I knew by the way need a word for the week your word is alluring that you are the alluring Mary Jane I like that one thing in what way would you say I'm a little wring every possible way marriage and. I'm immediately drawn like a moth to the radio whoa oh boy I love that Ok well I'm on to a flame so the flame of you're a loser. Yes keep digging your grave there you got me. Anyway you saw waves and I don't know that's the one you saw the tower right waves yes that's currently playing at the tower that this was written and directed by Trey Edward Schultz is the story of a wealthy African-American family living in Florida and there are problems with their kids who had everything going for them the son is a very aggressive athlete but he's got a. Real problem with his shoulder but he feels that he has to tight it and not talk to anyone about it because he has to excel to exceed to meet his dad's expectations and things go quite literally south from there is you follow this family's adventures over several years this kid is upset he can't talk to his parents or feels that he can't is having problems with his girlfriend and they're getting into fights all the time and in one moment he's at a party with her and his answer and. It's up ins up giving are such an injury that she dies from it so it's a pretty dramatic story and how the family deals with the pain deals with the anguish the boy has a sister to another these are major stars playing these roles it's from the studio a 24 which always does something a little bit interesting trait Edward Shilts is the director for waves and I thought the performances were really good but it was kind of marred by a movie that's trying to do too hard really visually to be hip they were always changing the aspect ratios you know the screen shape in the movies or Cinema Scope which is really why I had and then there's the old movies from the forty's that were squarish looking and it kept switching back and forth between the shapes the screen shapes to add a little. A dimension 2 different sequences and although it was interesting I'm always drawn out of the story when I see something like that also and the camera work was excellent and the sound editing I think would be worthy of an Academy Award it was really good but I just really could not find any level in which I could relate with the characters will be going on no matter how dramatic and how beautifully acted it was so that's ways from a $24.00 at the tower and back room and kind of I have to bring out a Christmas. Thing but they they will not be depressed if they go down to the Bob whole theater on Sunday that's right white Christmas the wonderful comedy musical romance with music by Irving Berlin with Danny Kaye Rosie Clooney Vera Ellen and of course dear bangle bring in this division in Technicolor all those great songs and a giant Vista Vision screen that they have down there at that wonderful 2042 seat movie palace that is the Fox California 130 in the afternoon on Sunday Dave Moreno plays the organ before the show I give away prizes from the stage and even Santa will be there well this whole Sunday with Mrs Claus for some live music in the lobby 1st it's just a great way to spend an afternoon that's at 2 for 2 East Main Street in downtown Stockton I hope that you'll come in and get into the Christmas spirit this Sunday and there's nothing that white Christmas we see it on t.v. Every year at least 2 or 3 times has shown but there's nothing like seeing it on a big screen no it's fabulous it's just fabulous and you know it's corny when you watch some of those sequences you know what Rosie Clooney and Vera Ellen do this number sisters and there's a play here sequence in the movie where Danny Kaye and Bing Crosby have to cover for him so they tress up and drag and do the numbers I want to like huge laugh and still funny. Great actors throughout the whole thing it's a great way to spend. One for the whole family at the Fox California part of the friends of the Fox classic movie series and it doesn't matter that you know the ending because it's still fun and I still get a tear or 2 when I see the ending sure and you know I know there are some people that either love or hate Danny Kaye I'll say that but it's just of fun I was seeing this with a bunch of other people in a giant movie college because that's an experience you just can't have anymore and something that happens once a month but the friends of the Fox movie classic series then testing and of course they always have to know what you're up to so how do they find that out and maybe Hollywood dot com and maybe Hollywood on Twitter on Facebook with his boss Hollywood and every Friday with the oh you're going Mary Jane cough right here on the voice of a 40 old Am and f.m. .

It's that sports name that is iconic but my next guests guest actually grew up loving basketball he actually even traveled to every major league baseball stadium with his son Zachary and delivered a series of articles from the road on fathers and sons and baseball now Craig leaner and studied basketball as a player a coach referee fan and a sports writer and now he has a trilogy of stories which began with this was never about basketball and now all roads lead to Lawrence are going to find out what he means by that and of course he is with us a live on the air how you doing today Craig there Jay I'm excited to be on your show Thanks for having me on oh you got it so your 1st book was about friendship and hope then ice I assume that is correct you know it's those are the main themes friendship or pretension you know try to correct things that you do incorrectly so how did you go from basketball to baseball. Well Mort's fan. I think of all the big sports and at the time of the baseball season and I got this idea that I wanted to go around the country with my son and I could sit to the general manager of the newspaper and they want for it so I love it so what did you learn doing that well. I learned. That to close as you are to your child there's the possibility of getting even closer my son and I have a just a great relationship for the experience of spending a couple of months on the road covering baseball together it must bother you then when you see the stupidity of some people at the games they get violent I mean they hurt each other or they are nasty to each other and it's a game for gosh sakes don't they get it Craig sports are pretty important people so why well. I think we get to play out a lot of things on the field or on the court. That are working out well for us in real life we begin to get to experience think that maybe we can experience in the other way well yeah but there's no excuse for that because what kind of example you setting for the kids that are growing up yeah there's certainly no excuse and I wasn't trying to make one it's just that some sometimes people just get too caught up in the moment and they don't know how to channel that in a marked destructive way it's I sometimes think that some of these people never made it you know they would all love to have made it to to be on the field and since they did they got to live their vicariously through somebody else it's unfortunate that we have to witness some of them or at sporting events Yeah but I think those people in the minority who I think by and large given their Have a good time oh you know enjoy what's going on in front of them but they hurt the other people who are there to just enjoy it you know and they take away that special something yeah it does detract from the experience for sure what about social media with with sports a lot of that people they can say anything they want let's put it that way and I'm not sure that's such a good thing it's not I mean everyone's For the most part people are anonymous on social media Lisa people that want to really express a controversial opinion. And so our society has broken down a bit in that sense where that thing is allowed to happen. Now is it true that the University of Kansas the Allen Fieldhouse it is said that that is the birthplace of basketball serious Well that's certainly where baffle took root Dr Naismith actually invented the game in 8091 and at the y.m.c.a. In Springfield Massachusetts and then you know through the transitions in his career he ended up in Lawrence and became the head of physical education there and became a doctor. Visits kitchen apartment and then he brought basketball to the school and that's where it took really embracing I'm from a basketball school Indiana University So Ok You know that's that was it and I actually have a pretty good football team this year to help make Wow that's not that's not happened for a very very long time but basketball was pretty good I mean you know it's with Bobby you know and doing his thing it's cetera but again there's another thing of anger and you know this clashing but it is long as it's honest and straightforward and not in a violent way you can learn a lot from sports can't you yeah I agree and I have to say that nobody throws a chair out of the court as well as Bobby Knight. Through. It and believe me I know I know Bobby Knight because I actually interviewed him on the air I had my 1st television show in Indianapolis and the athletic director called and asked if I would have him on the show and I said sure not a problem it was a morning show and he invited us to go out to film their practice which you know was going to use some b. Roll during the during the interview and we were sitting there I had my producer with me who happened to be male and my cameramen happen to be male but I was the one who was the host of the show and actually produce the show and has been seen was not doing too well I mean the team they were just out there and they were not up to Bobby Knight. What he really thinks the. Should have been Ok and he got mad at us and said everybody get out you know you're you're distracting you decide who's distraught we're sitting there being very quiet and cetera and then he had the nerve and you're going to love this great he had the nerve to say females out only the males can stay and by that oh yeah I mean I got up and my producer and my camera then turned he said she's the producer of the show she's the host of this show if she goes we go and we walked in and I got a call from the athletic director apologizing profusely for what he did and I said to asked if I would please you know forgive the action etc And this is so funny I was in the lobby of the studio and he pokes his nose on the door coming in and he says on so sorry can I still be on your show. And yeah get in here but you're going to get it on the air. But he was great and off the off the court he was terrific on the court he was just very passionate that was his thing but I can honestly say I threw Bobby Knight off my show my graduation something happened to him when he he gets transformed wanted on a basketball court and he's really sort of people on it because he's on the court before it might not be in the water they yell. Or if they are they're in a very violent way that they goes along with it what do you think people can learn I mean young people as well as you know are getting older What can we learn from sports Well certainly fair play is one of them and say that doing the right thing on the court teamwork is one of the hallmarks of Especially if you're sports. Looking off your teammates and. Something as simple as one foot if you're running a fast break on the basketball court 2 on one you take the shot to pass the ball all things being equal you know you have to make those decisions on the fly this is just rich with all types of life experiences like that I agree with you 100 percent what I kind of m. Worried about is that a lot of times for young people you know they show up for the game and they get a plaque you showed up for the game or a paper that says oh my gosh you know you made it to the game that's not teaching life lessons because nobody's going to give you a plaque for showing up for work if you win and you get a plaque that school if you lose and you don't get the plaque that's all right because you just try harder the next time isn't that the lesson they should be learning Well I would think so i political correctness it's found its way on to you know sports arenas. And I'm not sure it's to anyone's advantage I think it might be to the drug detriment to the kids I agree 100 percent what do you think how do you feel about the money that they are paid I mean these are the top level athletes and I understand they deserve to make money but you know $10000000.00 a year for playing a game when you have scientists and doctors and everything who are just trying to find the cure for cancer and they can hardly get a grant to do that it's Don't you think it's on balance I feel the same way about actors in Hollywood so. Yeah I'm going to work stream example is how we pay teachers as well you know if it comes down to it's a business that's the plan to ban it of people who want to pay the ticket prices but then that's just going to happen that's where we are society today oh I'm glad you brought that up to have a family of 4 you know 2 kids and the mom and dad to go to a basketball game and I mean we've got the kings here in Sacramento it's a fortune to you know to any kind of decency even the nosebleed seats are expensive and by the time you get a hotdog and some popcorn or whatever don't you think it's pricing out people who would love to bring their families but they can't afford it you know a question about how much or how we solve a problem like that because those teams going out to pay the salaries have to bring a lot of money and unfortunately it's the family for that where they actually are exactly exactly the other thing too as we've talked about this on the air before about all the concussions and you know kids growing up starting playing you know basketball and football especially football you know and they're like 5 or 6 years old and that kind of worries me because and soccer all of those you know they're using their heads and they're going to be have it rattled and we're seeing so many players in all the sports who are retiring early because they don't want to land up like some of the others laid. On in live where they're losing all their faculties Yeah it's a problem I don't think we have a solution for yet and I certainly think kids are involved too young in those high context ports they need a chance to develop their brains and develop their bodies before they can start knocking heads like that. But it's it is a big problem and I'm not sure we have a solution for it yeah so what are you trying to tell people in all roads lead to lower ends worse Lawrence Well it's a good question it's a double entendre because Lawrence is of course Lawrence Kansas the birthplace of basketball but it is also the 1st name of one of the main characters in the book at the young artistic fellow who my main character is the kill Archer 3 friends in continuation school so the roads lead to him as well because he has some special powers in the book. Excellent So the lesson is you can make it if you want to is that kind of a positive type of thing well it's something I guess I would say that the books are about doing the right thing and fixing things that you break. In the 1st book where everything starts off by you know Archer is a young high school basketball star is in the biggest game of his career he's playing in the high school City finals and the game's coming down the wire someone takes a cheap shot at one of the poets and he's got the crossroads and he decides to commit an act of violence on the court for his the game get kicked out of school loses his scholarship to the University of Kansas and be dumped into will be referred to as the California version of High School Purgatory which is a continuation school wow that's really me Florence and then what the what happens is the big finds out through Lawrence that the interdimensional energy being here is a good kind of strange broadcast called Earth and 1989 you want to talk in a Smith has decided to take it away because of weak What's the good. Sense in the thing now it's interesting because do you work like in the entertainment industry film operations post production technical services human resources management and then you've got your dream job as a sports writer at the signal newspaper in Santa Clarita So are you still writing sports writing I do freelance sports writing whatever I get the phone call to come in and cover a game or do a feature story Ok but I'm officially a novelist now you know retired from from the entertainment business but writing books so why. Boy I have to tell you No I think it anybody who writes at an early age we all feel we have a book in us and I decided to come in late in life to make good at it good on the thread I should say and I just enjoyed so much having a good time and you know why not now this is going to be part of the trilogy that's correct I'm working on book 3 right now to start outline it the 3rd book is most likely going. Because this was always about basketball and I can give readers a little bit of Vance look we're going to be talking about ancient geometry as relates to the angle of the basketball and we're also going to do some time travel well now that's fascinating to me the geometry Ok That's interesting when you mean time travel Well we're I'm planning to go back to the origins of basketball with my protagonist Zeke Archer and he's going to have them an encounter with Dr Naismith as the game is being invented well oh interesting how how has the chance and you know you're the expert on this I have no idea the way it was way back in 18 whatever 91 yeah and today how has it changed over measurably the game we originally didn't involve any dribbling of the ball. And there were 11 players on the court for each team in the basket had a had a bottom 3 had a pocket of the stick and it's from a long way. A little known fact is that they hung the baskets at this y.m.c.a. In Springfield at 10 feet because that was the height of the railing in the gym. And you know if that really was 11 feet then that's probably where the baskets would be today. That is fast Ok still the they didn't double the ball at all now they just had to pass it around and dribbling came into the game a little bit later no kidding it's amazing you know you look back when you go how did people how did this come into this guy's mind to do a game that says unless it all ball around and then put it in this basket it came from early in his life when he was playing a game called Doc on Iraq where he and his friends would throw rocks out into a pond to try to hit a larger rock that was in the pond and they would arched the the rock and that was the b.f.s. Is you know. How we put it together yet it all started this is are you the kind of writer they have to sit down like every day and you have so many pages that you do it so many words that you write or does it come inspiration when it comes well I try to write for 5 days a week and you know I start in the morning and I just write and. Sometimes the words come a little harder and it takes a while but at the end of the day you know I usually feel pretty good about where I landed that's great I think the whole idea is taking a way of looking within oneself and I think that's what you're trying to do in this trilogy right. You know this is a way for young people to examine their own lives through the world that I create for them you know there's some magical realism in these books of past testing all things are happening but it's really about being grounded into a life lesson understanding that when you make a mistake you can fix it if you work at it how do you feel being a mentor young people. I really enjoy it it's one of my roles in life I think. I'm a journalism mentor or they have the college level I help young journalists become better writers if I think it's one of the reasons why I was walking around why or what kind of worries do young people have as you encounter them you know. Well boy it's a broad question I mean they're worried about what people think of them they're worried about where this crazy world is headed with. Yeah and for all the obvious you know political reasons. And social media has really lit a fire under everybody's sensibility and that's a big part of young people's lifestyle. And it's a crazy world out there but you know you've got to at least approach these kids until it will be Ok but you just gotta you gotta fight through it all. That's my goal when I write these things you know I'm really writing for the young young reader the young adult books I think they cross over to the old older folks too but you know had a target for the young mind had it now do you have a website thanks for asking I do Craig Leno dot com a t r a I g you know any are dot com They have us and the book all the books are they they live well only the 1st 2 now are they available at bookstores on line all that kind of thing they're available worldwide and I was out of course but anywhere books are sold untasted Well I thank you for taking the time to be with us Craig keep up the good work because we need a lot of encouragement out there thank you very much America you bet once again that's great leader his latest book all roads lead to Lawrence but then it's also this was never about basketball interesting Stay with us. But I want to thank you all for being with us on the pop off the radio show Hope you had a good time and we'll be back with you of course and 6 pm and 10 pm on f.m. One of 4 point by the name 1000 d.k. High in the meantime let's simply laugh off and love deeply and above all else go to Dream talk with you next time right here on pop off.
