Fifteen years ago, staging Shakespeare in Scranton sounded improbable to plenty of people, especially to some New York theater types.

The original production was intended as a one-time public performance of A Midsummer Night’s Dream in Nay Aug Park. Organizers hoped a modest audience would turn out for the celebrated Bard.

Instead, more than 1,000 people packed into the park. 

In this episode of HarmonyTALK, host Lisa Champeau speaks with Scranton Shakespeare Festival co-founder Michael Bradshaw Flynn about the unlikely evolution of the festival from a free outdoor performance into a permanent arts organization producing musicals, Shakespeare, new works, and youth programming in downtown Scranton and Northeast Pennsylvania.

Flynn discusses balancing a career between New York and Northeastern Pennsylvania, working on Broadway productions including The Front Page, It’s Only a Play, and The Nance, (with Nathan Lane) and why regional theater still matters at a time when arts organizations across the country face shrinking audiences and financial instability.

The conversation traces Flynn’s early immersion in theater through Arts Alive, the Scranton Cultural Center, and local summer stock programs, as well as the influence of a family steeped in storytelling traditions.

Now entering its 15th season under the theme Faith, the Scranton Shakespeare Festival will present Much Ado About Nothing, Carousel, Henry V, Saint Joan, Jesus Christ Superstar, youth ensemble productions, and a 15th anniversary gala.

What does it look like to build a life slowly, intentionally, and with your hands in the soil?

In this episode of HarmonyTALK, host Lisa Champeau sits down with Gudrun Feigl, founder of Mount Pleasant Herbary, whose journey from Germany’s Black Forest to Northeastern Pennsylvania is rooted in memory, creativity, and quiet persistence.

Gudrun did not set out to become an entrepreneur. Trained as a social worker, she arrived in the United States through a work exchange program, eventually settling in a town that, at the time, felt uncertain and still finding its identity. Over time, as she built a life in Honesdale, something else began to grow.

What started as homemade herbal teas shared at Christmas evolved into a small table of three products and eventually into a vibrant shop filled with dozens of handcrafted goods. Today, Gudrun grows her own herbs, creates in small batches, and offers workshops that invite others into the joy of making.

This conversation explores creativity, slow growth, community collaboration, and the courage to follow curiosity without a clear roadmap. It is a story about building something meaningful without rushing the process and finding fulfillment in both the making and the sharing.

If you have ever wondered whether small beginnings can lead to something lasting, this episode offers a gentle and inspiring answer.

How did an architect end up reshaping a city’s pop culture identity?

In this episode of HarmonyTALK, host Todd Stephens sits down with Michele Dempsey, architect, entrepreneur, single mom, and one of the creative forces who helped turn Scranton’s connection to ‘The Office’ into something no one expected: pride, tourism and a renewed identity.

Set as the backdrop for the cult NBC sitcom, Scranton risked becoming the butt of national jokes. But Michele saw something else entirely. She recognized that humor could become hospitality and that this newfound national attention could build momentum in reviving civic pride.   

What followed was the creation of Office fan conventions, citywide events, celebrity appearances, and experiences that welcomed thousands of fans from around the world while helping locals see their hometown differently.

Scranton’s Office Convention and The Office Wrap Party filled local hotels. To this day, The Office 5K energizes Scranton’s downtown every May. And thanks to streaming services delivering Office episodes to new generations, fan tourism has exploded across Northeastern Pennsylvania.

But Michele did not come from the world of entertainment. She came from architecture, a profession built on vision, planning and making ideas real. She simply applied those same instincts to a city and a popular sitcom.

This conversation explores leadership, identity, reinvention, economic development, and the rare skill of turning cultural attention into community momentum.

If you’ve ever wondered how a city can control its own narrative, this story offers an unforgettable answer.

That second call brought the Dunmore, Pennsylvania, native into one of the most influential media spaces of the 1990s.

DePaulo shares what it was like to work with JFK Jr. as an editor, how he shaped her approach to reporting, and what he understood about the balance between access and restraint. She reflects on the culture inside George, where politics and celebrity met, and where strong journalism still drove the work.

The conversation also turns to the FX series Love Story: John F. Kennedy Jr. & Carolyn Bessette. DePaulo offers a measured perspective on what the show captures well and where it misses, especially when it comes to the emotional truth behind public figures.

This episode is about judgment.
Protecting sources.
Standing by your work.

And it is about the moment that stayed with her.
The call she planned to make.
The news that followed instead.

Clear, thoughtful and grounded, this conversation reflects what journalism looks like at its best.

Pat Mitchell stopped counting.

In this episode of HarmonyTALK, host Lisa Champeau sits down with a true original. A woman who did not just rise through the ranks of media, she reshaped them.

Pat Mitchell is a serial ceiling smasher. The first female president of PBS and CNN. The first woman to own and host a nationally syndicated daily talk show. And long before the titles, she was a young woman willing to risk everything to build a life that did not yet exist.

She marched for civil rights. Reported from war zones. Told stories no one else would touch. And when the industry said women’s voices did not matter, she made them impossible to ignore.

But what makes this conversation unforgettable is what comes after the accolades.

Pat speaks candidly about the decisions behind the moments. The instincts she learned to trust. And the responsibility she feels to lift other women as she climbs.

This is a conversation about leadership, yes. But also about courage, mentorship, and the quiet, persistent work of changing what is possible.

Pat speaks candidly about the decisions behind the moments. The instincts she learned to trust. And the responsibility she feels to lift other women as she climbs.

This is a conversation about leadership, yes. But also about courage, mentorship, and the quiet, persistent work of changing what is possible.

]]> Wed, 01 Apr 2026 09:00:00 +0000 Foundation for Harmony Presents Foundation for Harmony Presents 2136 How many ceilings can one woman break?

Pat Mitchell stopped counting.

In this episode of HarmonyTALK, host Lisa Champeau sits down with a true original. A woman who did not just rise through the ranks of media, she reshaped them.

Pat Mitchell is a serial ceiling smasher. The first female president of PBS and CNN. The first woman to own and host a nationally syndicated daily talk show. And long before the titles, she was a young woman willing to risk everything to build a life that did not yet exist.

She marched for civil rights. Reported from war zones. Told stories no one else would touch. And when the industry said women’s voices did not matter, she made them impossible to ignore.

But what makes this conversation unforgettable is what comes after the accolades.

Pat speaks candidly about the decisions behind the moments. The instincts she learned to trust. And the responsibility she feels to lift other women as she climbs.

What does it take to bet on yourself when there’s no backup plan?

In this episode of HarmonyTALK, host Greg Frigoletto sits down with Chef Ryan Von Smith, known as Chef Von, a self-taught chef whose journey spans Los Angeles, New York, Las Vegas, and Macau.

After leaving Scranton, Pennsylvania, in search of something bigger, Chef Von worked his way from the door - as a bouncer - at Tao Asian Bistro into high-pressure kitchens across the country. When COVID shut everything down, he returned home and started cooking out of his mom’s kitchen, turning a moment of uncertainty into Chef Von & Mom, a restaurant rooted in family, community and bold flavor.

Since then, he has stepped back onto the global stage, placing third at the World Master Chefs Competition, winning the 2024 World Rice Championship, and appearing on Gordon Ramsay’s Next Level Chef.

This conversation is about more than food. It’s about risk, resilience, reinvention and the confidence to build something real, twice.

Many entrepreneurs dream of appearing on Shark Tank.

But what happens after the cameras turn off?

In this episode of HarmonyTALK, host Lisa Champeau sits down with Scranton native and inventor Kim Meckwood, founder of Click & Carry, the simple but ingenious device designed to make carrying grocery bags, paint cans, sports equipment, and everyday loads dramatically easier.

Kim’s idea began with a familiar frustration. While hauling grocery bags up apartment stairs, she wondered why such a common problem didn’t have a better solution.

That moment sparked Click & Carry.

Turning the idea into a real product required persistence. Kim built prototypes, secured patents, and auditioned seven times before finally landing a spot on Shark Tank, where she secured a deal with Barbara Corcoran and Mark Cuban.

Today Kim is focused on the next chapter of entrepreneurship. She is pitching Click & Carry to major retailers, working to place the product on big box store shelves, and exploring how to move manufacturing to the United States as new import tariffs reshape global production.

Her mindset is simple:

“No just means no for now.”

In this powerful episode of HarmonyTALK, host Lisa Champeau interviews Judy Frater, a Pennsylvania-born Fulbright Scholar, Ashoka Fellow, design educator, author and founder of India’s first design school for traditional textile artisans.

After moving to Kutch, India, more than 30 years ago, Judy’s academic research took an unexpected turn when an artisan asked her a life-altering question:”Instead of studying us, why don’t you help us?”

That moment sparked Kala Raksha, a women’s embroidery cooperative, a textile museum preserving nearly 800 historic works, and eventually Somaiya Kala Vidya, a groundbreaking design school that teaches artisans business, marketing, sustainability and innovation without abandoning tradition.

Judy shares what it means to empower rather than interfere, how commercialization and cultural preservation can coexist, and why “the biggest luxury is knowing who made your clothes.”

This episode explores sustainability, ethical fashion, women’s economic empowerment, social entrepreneurship, artisan education and the courage to make something new.

Perfect for listeners passionate about ethical fashion, social impact, women’s leadership, global design, sustainability, and creative entrepreneurship.

On this episode of HarmonyTALK, host Greg Frigoletto sits down with internationally acclaimed choreographer, creative director, educator and podcast host Cherice Barton to explore what it means to move through evolving seasons with grace, humor, and purpose.

With a career spanning Broadway, Cirque, television, ballet and global immersive productions, Cherice understands discipline, scale and creative leadership. At home, she and her former husband, a television executive, are collaborative co-parents to two tween daughters, modeling what modern family evolution can look like.

She also shares the inspiration behind her podcast, Creative Mamas Unplugged, a podcast where Cherice “navigates the hell out of being a creative mom with humor and heart.” Through it, she is building a bold, honest community for women balancing ambition and motherhood.

This conversation is about embracing discomfort, choosing joy, building community and always staying in motion.

What began as a dream to create a vibrant summer camp experience centered on community and faith took an unexpected turn when he was approached by a parent who asked if their wheelchair-bound child with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy could be accommodated and welcomed at camp.

Braverman’s decision to move forward would become one of the most defining moments of his career. He didn’t simply advocate for accessibility. He embedded it into the culture of the camp itself, shaping programs and practices that welcomed campers of all abilities as equal participants through a partnership program with the national organization Yachad (Hebrew for “together”,) whose mission is inclusion for individuals with developmental disabilities into the greater Jewish community.

Located in Lakewood, Pennsylvania, Camp Nesher is part of NJY Camps, a 105-year-old organization and one of the world’s largest camping agencies, awarding up to $2 million in scholarships each year. In addition, NJY brings more than 40 years of experience in inclusive programming through its Round Lake inclusion program at its Milford, Pennsylvania, property which includes Camps Nah-Jee-Wah, Cedar Lake and Teen Camp.

In this inspiring conversation with host Todd Stephens, Braverman shares leadership lessons learned along the way and how passion, purpose and music can move in harmony.

This special holiday episode is our end-of-year highlight reel- a celebration of the dreamers, doers, and big ideas that shaped our conversations throughout 2025. Hosted by Lisa Champeau, Greg Frigoletto, and Todd Stephens, this episode revisits some unforgettable moments and the people behind them.

We hear from guests who followed curiosity instead of certainty. Who chased bold ideas. Who found purpose in unexpected places. From a lifelong camp dream turned into a thriving reality, to a young scientist tackling microplastics, to powerful reflections on creativity, courage, and staying curious, each story reminds us why we love these conversations so much.

This episode isn’t about perfection or tidy endings. It’s about momentum. About what happens when people say yes to possibility, lean into the process, and keep showing up for what excites them.

As we wrap up 2025 and look ahead to a brand-new year, we’re grateful for our guests, our listeners, and the stories that connect us all. We hope this holiday special leaves you inspired, energized, and ready for whatever comes next.

With around 100 pieces in their possession, discover how these tiny works of art have become a bridge between the past and the present, and how the Skiers' dedication has brought to light a little-known yet profoundly touching aspect of art history.

]]> No The Heart of a Champion: Ron Cey's Story The Heart of a Champion: Ron Cey's Story full 149f7652-f8b2-4bdd-ad02-b34700f56c73 https://share.transistor.fm/s/6d05b381 Everyone has a dream. For many young boys, the dream is to become a major league baseball player. Years back, this was especially true for a little boy growing up in Tacoma, Washington. Harmony Talk is honored to share the story of the journey of legendary third baseman, Ron Cey. Known to many as “the Penguin”, Ron played 16 seasons in Major League Baseball. Although best known for covering the “hot corner” for the Los Angeles Dodgers, Ron also played for the Chicago Cubs and Oakland Athletics. He was a six-time All-Star, had over 300 career home runs, was World Series Champ and Word Series MVP.  Cey at third base, Bill Russel at shortstop, Davey Lopes at second base and Steve Garvey at first base lasted for nearly nine seasons for the Los Angeles Dodgers. This remarkable feat is a celebrated piece of baseball history that hasn’t been matched since and may never be again.

Throughout Ron’s journey from dreaming to doing there were many lessons learned and many interesting encounters along the way. From growing up as boy chasing a dream and the struggles that go along with that to making it to the big leagues and playing under legends like Tommy Lasorda, Ron has an incredible story to tell. 

In this episode, hear Ron in a memorable conversation with host Greg Frigoletto, as they discuss the story of the little boy from Tacoma who became the author, podcaster and celebrity that he is today.  Check out Ron’s podcast, the Ron Cey Show as well as his book, an autobiography titled Penguin Power…a book about Dodger Blue, Hollywood Lights and Ron’s One-In-A-Million Big League Journey.

Ron currently lives in in Woodland Hills, CA with his wife Fran. They were married in 1971 and have two children, Daniel and Amanda.

She was a mentor to fellow writer Pat Conroy, who sang her praises in more ways than one. Yet many if not all of Ann Head’s books are out of print or difficult to find.  Nancy hopes the biography of her mother called “Ahead of her Time: The Trailblazing Life and Literary Legacy of Ann Head” will reconnect the world with her mother’s work.  She spoke to Lisa Champeau from her vacation home on Fripp Island, not far from her native Beaufort, where Ann was not just a working mom but a legend.

]]> No From Soccer to Storytelling: Micah Dawanyi’s Journey From Soccer to Storytelling: Micah Dawanyi’s Journey full e270a835-f98d-42be-aa38-b2980105ad04 https://share.transistor.fm/s/e5115ce6 Micah Dawanyi is a wearer of many hats- author, coach, illustrator, and speaker, to name a few. Micah grew up as an athlete, but at 15, he was forced to cut his soccer career short after suffering from a series of medical conditions and injuries, the most notable being a life-threatening heart condition. At 16, he earned his first national coaching license, becoming the youngest licensed coach in South Florida’s history. Micah used his license to start a non-profit training business to serve underfunded communities, leading to a student activism award issued by the City of Coral Spring’s Martin Luther King Jr. Committee. 

During the summer of 2020, Micah published his first book, “Step Into My Shoes: Memoirs From the Other Side of America”, a series of memoirs focusing on racial injustice. Shortly after the publication of his book, Micah began working on social justice projects with media companies across the nation to help spread awareness about social injustice. 

As a psychology student in college, Micah also developed a strong interest in mental health. In 2022, he published his second book, “Battle Scars & Blossoms: A Journey Through the Mind”, a fictional work dealing with grief, emotional suppression, and the stigmas around therapy. The novel led to partnerships with local schools and international mental health institutes to facilitate conversations around mental health.

Late in 2024, Micah graduated with his master’s degree and released his third book, “When the Record Stops Spinning,” a science-fiction story about purpose, identity, and healing your inner child.

Whether speaking, coaching, writing, or working on social justice projects, Micah's intent always remains to encourage, enlighten, and empower.

]]> No Art as Therapy: Heather Clements' Story Art as Therapy: Heather Clements' Story full 9c01acbc-e0f2-461c-add2-b273014d1400 https://share.transistor.fm/s/923795e1 Heather Clements combines realistic portraiture, expressive abstraction, and elements of flora and fauna to represent a symbiotic relationship with nature.  After growing up in Northern Virginia, she earned her BFA in painting from the Maryland Institute College of Art before moving to Panama City, Florida.  For Heather, creating art not only adds beauty with meaning into the world, but is a means for escaping depression.  The category 5 hurricane that hit the Florida Panhandle took away so much of Heather’s life, including the nature she loved by destroying 70-90% of the trees over millions of surrounding acres.  Within months she also lost multiple loved ones.  After a year without making art, deep in grief and depression, the only thing that saved her was a week of isolation unplugged in the woods far from home, where she finally made gobs of healing art.  Since then Heather’s art has evolved and exploded onto giant walls through expressive murals, making art accessible to all.  Through her art, she hopes to move others to develop a deeper connection with their own natural surroundings.  That bond encourages more sustainable practices, but also stronger mental health.  Now residing in nature in Asheville, North Carolina, Heather is embracing creating the art her inner-most weirdo yearns to make. She has expanded into creating interactive art, through her new book “Pull Me Apart” with pull-tabs, spin wheels, and more, and numerous interactive murals.

]]> Heather Clements combines realistic portraiture, expressive abstraction, and elements of flora and fauna to represent a symbiotic relationship with nature.  After growing up in Northern Virginia, she earned her BFA in painting from the Maryland Institute College of Art before moving to Panama City, Florida.  For Heather, creating art not only adds beauty with meaning into the world, but is a means for escaping depression.  The category 5 hurricane that hit the Florida Panhandle took away so much of Heather’s life, including the nature she loved by destroying 70-90% of the trees over millions of surrounding acres.  Within months she also lost multiple loved ones.  After a year without making art, deep in grief and depression, the only thing that saved her was a week of isolation unplugged in the woods far from home, where she finally made gobs of healing art.  Since then Heather’s art has evolved and exploded onto giant walls through expressive murals, making art accessible to all.  Through her art, she hopes to move others to develop a deeper connection with their own natural surroundings.  That bond encourages more sustainable practices, but also stronger mental health.  Now residing in nature in Asheville, North Carolina, Heather is embracing creating the art her inner-most weirdo yearns to make. She has expanded into creating interactive art, through her new book “Pull Me Apart” with pull-tabs, spin wheels, and more, and numerous interactive murals.

“ArtScene”, her award-winning daily arts program, features interviews with creative individuals from the region, the United States and abroad. She has produced many programs about the history of northeastern Pennsylvania and its residents. Her radio play “Who Pretender Is, Or Who Is King” centers on the lives of the residents of Laurel Run, a borough outside Wilkes-Barre, plagued by a chronic mine fire. The piece was produced by The Northeast Theatre and broadcast on WVIA Radio.

Erika also has television films to her credit. She wrote and narrated a documentary on the Knox Mine Disaster that happened in the Wyoming Valley in 1959. And an Emmy-nominated documentary on Mozart that looks at the composer and his music in the context of the cities that were important in his life.

She is a Phi Beta Kappa graduate of University of Chicago and received a master’s degree in Humanities (Interrelationships in the Arts) from Penn State University. She served on the PA Humanities Council for two terms.  In 2023, Erika was awarded an honorary Doctor of Fine Arts degree by Misericordia University and, in November 2024, she was inducted into the Luzerne County Arts & Entertainment Hall of Fame."

Key Takeaways:

  • Erika Funke has spent nearly five decades in broadcasting.
  • Art can help communities recover from hardships.
  • Memorable interviews often lead to unexpected connections.
  • The Knox Mine disaster symbolizes a pivotal moment in local history.

Dr. David, a retired ophthalmologist, and his wife Nan have spent the past two decades amassing an extraordinary collection of these unique and historical artworks.

Lover's Eyes are miniature portraits featuring disembodied eyes, meticulously painted on ivory and often surrounded by intricate frames. Originating in Europe around the 1800s, these intimate pieces were typically commissioned to commemorate a secret love or a deep, personal bond, often with the identity of the sitter remaining a mystery.

In this episode, Nan and David share the story behind their collection, which began with David's professional fascination with the human eye and evolved into a passionate quest to preserve these delicate mementos of affection and intrigue. With around 100 pieces in their possession, discover how these tiny works of art have become a bridge between the past and the present, and how the Skiers' dedication has brought to light a little-known yet profoundly touching aspect of art history. 

Whether you're an art enthusiast, a history buff, or simply curious about the unusual, this episode is for you. Nan and David Skier will discuss their journey, their collection, and the timeless allure of Lover's Eyes.

Throughout Ron’s journey from dreaming to doing there were many lessons learned and many interesting encounters along the way. From growing up as boy chasing a dream and the struggles that go along with that to making it to the big leagues and playing under legends like Tommy Lasorda, Ron has an incredible story to tell. 

In this episode, hear Ron in a memorable conversation with host Greg Frigoletto, as they discuss the story of the little boy from Tacoma who became the author, podcaster and celebrity that he is today.  Check out Ron’s podcast, the Ron Cey Show as well as his book, an autobiography titled Penguin Power…a book about Dodger Blue, Hollywood Lights and Ron’s One-In-A-Million Big League Journey.

Ron currently lives in in Woodland Hills, CA with his wife Fran. They were married in 1971 and have two children, Daniel and Amanda.

Last year, he received the Trailblazer Lifetime Achievement Award. 

His affable curiosity began in our hometown of Honesdale, Pennsylvania, and was furthered at his alma mater, Syracuse University, where he was inducted into the Newhouse School’s 50 Forward as one of its most accomplished graduates of the last 50 years. Jim and his wife Audra also founded the Weiss Center for Social Commerce at S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications.
