Episode 117 What happens when poetry meets paint, when words meet brushstrokes, when two passionate creatives come together to tell stories of life, healing, and transformation? You get The Canvas of Life.  On this very special episode of KD Time , I had the absolute pleasure of chatting with two phenomenal women— Gwendolyn Jasmine , an extraordinary visual artist, and Alisha Rose , a gifted poet. Together, they created The Canvas of Life , a soul-stirring collection of poetry and art that speaks to the core of human experience.

It's a journey through the human condition, told through the lens of people walking all kinds of paths in life. Every poem and painting is rooted in real emotions, real challenges, and real hope. Gwendolyn , with her incredible talent, took Alisha’s poems—and others within the collection—and transformed them into visual masterpieces. Each painting is...

Episode 114 The Concept of Zombies in Pop Culture: Origins, Science & Apocalypse Scenarios by Kay Dee Zombies. They're slow, they're fast, they're brain-hungry, and they just won’t stay dead. Over the decades, the zombie has transformed from obscure folklore to pop culture powerhouse, shuffling its way into movies, books, TV shows, video games, and even our scientific imaginations. But where did the idea of zombies come from? Could they exist in real life? And what would actually happen if the undead did rise?
