Honoring Heroes: A WWII Veteran’s Legacy and Celebrity Kindness

In this episode, we celebrate the long-overdue recognition of Army Cpl. Waverly Woodson Jr., a Black WWII veteran who saved 200 lives during D-Day, receiving the Distinguished Service Cross after decades of advocacy by his family. We also share a heartwarming story of Johnny Depp surprising young hospital patients in Spain dressed as Captain Jack Sparrow, showcasing the uplifting power of celebrity kindness. Additionally, we discuss Stevie Nicks' new pro-choice anthem, 'The Lighthouse,' inspired by the overturning of Roe v. Wade, and Amanda Seyfried's charming parenting moment as her daughter calls her 'Sophie' after falling in love with 'Mamma Mia!'. Join us for these inspiring narratives that highlight bravery, compassion, and the joys of family.
