Today's guest, former TV News Director and current Director of Media Operations at Relevant Media Agency, Ken Levine, was back...

School shootings are tragic - but the solution is not arming police officers or teachers at schools - especially if they aren't trained in child or adolescent psychology. A recent case in point is the shooting of Logan Clark, a student at Hug High School in Nevada. Suffering from psychological problems - largely due to being bullied - Logan brought a knife to school to protect himself against these increasingly aggressive bullies. But, a trigger happy police officer shot first and asked question...

With all the tumult happening down here on earth, it's good to take some time to let our mind soar. Do you believe in angels or other spiritual beings?

But, the two angels he saw, at the moment of his life-threatening accident, had other plans for him.

Although everyone is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law, there's a staggering amount of evidence in the case of Michelle O'Connell's death that has not been allowed to get to court because the Florida town Sheriff has done everything he can to prevent even a grand jury.

As she w...

We've all had occasions, when it comes to sex, that our mind wanted to go one way and our body wanted to go another. There are many different rhymes and reasons for this to be so.

Although Dr. Carole thought she would not have to talk about the election anymore, since Trump won and Hillary conceded, it turns out that more headlines need to be analyzed on Dr. Carole's Couch.

Apparently, though Hillary made gracious concession speeches, she has been plotting s...

From high school to grad school, student protesters- unhappy about election results- are regressing to crying rooms and coloring books. Why? Because many in this overindulged generation feel entitled to get their way all the time. Some claim to be in fear for their lives or for those of their classmates, but their narcissism is showing. Others, with sociopathic traits, seize upon the media's false messages about Trump's campaign to express their own bigotry. Today's guest, Doug Giles, author of ...

We grow up believing our social studies teachers, when they tell us that we are all innocent until proven guilty. But, when today's guest, David Merkatz, learned that there was a warrant out for his arrest, he discovered that this isn't always true. In fact, just hours before this interview, David learned that he was still being pursued criminally for some simple promo idea he had used for his locksmith business.

Anthony Weiner's latest sexting scandal proves that he needs to be on some psychiatrist's couch, so Dr. Carole puts him on hers today.

She does not ...

Though the Olympic Games have begun with all seemingly quiet on the terrorist front... threatening clouds have been gathering. ISIS has been advertising for Portuguese speakers and announcing 'Lone Wolf from anywhere in the world can move to Brazil now.' They even suggest how and where to attack, targeting Americans, British, French and Israeli visitors to Rio. Already about a dozen men have been arrested on suspicion of plotting attacks for a Brazilian Islamist militant group called the Defende...
