Business RadioX Host Dr. Tim Morrison Interviews Author Jim Elledge

On Tuesday September 20th, 2011, Atlanta Business RadioX Host Dr. Tim Morrison sat down with author and Kennesaw State Program Director Jim Elledge to talk about the upcoming PUBLISHERS, AGENTS & MEDIA INSTITUTE, which will be hosted at KSU this October.

As the two talked, Elledge detailed the many ways that Kennesaw State University supports writers. For example, the program he directs, The Master of Arts in Professional Writing (MAPW) degree is a professional graduate degree program that prepares candidates for a wide variety of writing-related positions in business, education, publishing, and the arts. He further noted that many non-traditional students complete this program and use writing as a way to expand creativity in their current career or to transition to a new career.

Business RadioX Hosts Interview Joan Denziot of Super Sized Cycles

On Thursday August 11th, 2011, Atlanta Business RadioX Hosts Dr. Adam Shafran and Lee Kantor had a chance to chat with Joan Denziot whose Super Sized Cycles were recently featured on ABC’s Extreme Makeover: Weight Loss Edition.

When Extreme Makeover Weight Loss Edition’s host and trainer Chris Powell was looking for a bike for one of his trainees, James, he turned to a good friend of the Dr. Fitness and the Fat Guy Show, Joan Denizot. Joan created Super Sized Cycles when, after gaining some weight herself, she was informed that she wasn’t the right size for a bicycle.

Instead of copping an attitude, she created a positive movement of empowerment and self respect, designed innovative, comfortable bicycles able to hold 550 pounds, and set out to remind us all that “Zize”, like life, is all about attitude! She says “A surprising, overlooked solution to fitness; bicycles offer a fun, easy way to get in shape, for all sizes of bodies,” and she was happy to help Extreme contestant James Garrison bike his way to losing over 300 pounds in one year.

Business RadioX Hosts Dr. Adam Shafran and Lee Kantor Interview Norbie Lara of the Wounded Warrior Project

On Thursday July 28th, 2011, Atlanta Business RadioX Hosts Dr. Adam Shafran and Lee Kantor were joined in the studio by Norberto “Norbie” Lara and Ray Upshaw, both Tough Mudder “Hall of Famers”.

Norbie Lara joined the Army in 1995. In 2004 he was injured in Iraq. He was in a coma for months and lost his arm. Since then, this Bronze Star recipient has been helping other wounded warriors, like himself, transition to a new life after injury through the Wounded Warrior Project.

During the interview, Norbie talked about how the closing of the Walter Reed Medical Center saddens him. He said the staff was really caring and were truly honored to be providing services to soldiers. It has taken Norbie awhile to get back in shape but that hasn’t stopped him from participating in the Tough Mudder events.

Junior Achievement Fellow Program Members from a variety of Georgia high schools spent a full day in training at the JA headquarters with Atlanta Business RadioX partners Lee Kantor and Stone Payton learning how to create their own radio show and interview business leaders.

On Saturday August 13th, 2011, Atlanta Business RadioX Partners Lee Kantor and Stone Payton and several of their radio show hosts were joined by 11 students in the Junior Achievement of Georgia for a full day training and certification at the Junior Achievement headquarters in Sandy Springs.

Business RadioX Host Dr. Tim Morrison Interviews Notorious Hacker Turned Cyber-Security Expert

On August 2nd, 2011, Atlanta Business RadioX Host Dr. Tim Morrison was joined in the studio by Ligatt Security International’s CEO and Founder, Gregory Evans.

Evans is a widely renowned cyber-security expert and author of eight books on high-tech security issues, but his now glowing reputation had an inauspicious start. In 1996 he was on the FBI’s top ten list of “wanted” computer hackers. Evans claims to have started hacking when he was in 7th grade, changing classroom grades for his friends for money. He “expanded” from there. Today Evans heads Ligatt Security International, a leader in computer security and cyber-crime investigation and appears regularly in the media as a cyber-security expert. In 2009, Evans appeared on Fox network’s “Fox & Friends,” as well as CBS news, and the world-famous Frank Ski morning radio show on Atlanta’s v103. He was also named one of Black Enterprise magazine’s Top 20 “Masters of Innovation,” and has been featured in numerous newspapers and magazines, including the LA Times, USA Today, Wells Fargo Business Journal, and JET magazine. He is the founder of National Cyber Security.

Business RadioX Host Dr. Tim Morrison Interviews Brent Sampson Founder of Outskirts Press

On July 26th, 2011, Atlanta Business RadioX Host Dr. Tim Morrison had the opportunity to sit down with the CEO and Founder of one of Inc. Magazines Top 5000 fastest growing businesses in 2009 and 2010. Brent Sampson founded Outskirts Press in 2003 and has turned into the premier source for full service self-publishing.

Morrison talked to Sampson about his own desire to become a published author and the frustrations he experienced that motivated him to develop Outskirts Press.

“Rather than bemoaning the frustration of not getting published, Brent Sampson studied the terrain, examined what was available for writers to get published and decided there had to be a better way. Outskirts Press is the result of that process and he continues to tweak the company’s processes to meet the needs of writers by participating in all aspects of the business. When Sampson speaks he speaks not only as a publisher but also as an author who knows the challenges and frustrations and hope and dreams of getting published,” says Morrison.
