This week's episode is all about service to others. Pastor Lee Steele joins me in studio to talk about what it means to care for others in AND outside Church. What volunteer projects do you participate in and how do you care for your community? What does your reflection of love look like? Now more than ever, with all the recent weather disasters, we must step up to the plate and help our neighbors. Note: Joplin, Missouri is not mentioned in this episode (taped prior to 5/23). My thoughts and prayers go out to all the people affected by this tornado and the ones in other areas this spring. http://straighttalkwithcathy.com http://twitter.com/straighttalkpod

Folks, we have a great episode for you this week! We're talking about a very important topic -- prescription pills. The National Pill Take Back Initiative is taking place throughout the country this week, and we're strongly encouraging YOU to participate. Joining me in this show are Angie Ellison and Lakeland Police Department Detective Dan Jonas. We're talking about ways to properly dispose expired pills and offering advice on how to keep your medicines safe and away from people who shouldn't have access to them. http://straighttalkwithcathy.com http://twitter.com/straighttalkpod

April is Alcohol Awareness Month -- so we won't be talking about runner's knee this week! Angie Ellison and Tom Evans from InnerAct Alliance join me this week to talk about what students, parents and families need to know about alcohol consumption. Should parents treat it as a rite of passage or does the age 21 law exist for a reason? http://straighttalkwithcathy.com http://twitter.com/straighttalkpod

Straight Talk with Cathy lined up a great guest this week! Rick Bender joins me in studio and shares his story about using tobacco. Rick started using Spit Tobacco, otherwise known as Chewing Tobacco, at age 12. By age 26, he was diagnosed with cancer and went through major surgeries. Despite losing 1/3 of his tongue, 1/2 his jaw and 25% use of his right arm, Rick took a negative situation and made it positive by devoting his life to educating others on the dangers of using tobacco. http://straighttalkwithcathy.com http://twitter.com/straighttalkpod

January 12, 2010 My heart and prayers go out to all the families associated with the tragedy in Tucson. This sad day in our nation's history must not be forgotten. In this week's episode, I share my thoughts on the tragedy and ask you, my listeners, how we overcome negativity in our country. How do we come together and solve the issues of this decade in positive and productive ways? http://straighttalkwithcathy.com http://twitter.com/straighttalkpod
