Podcast Description
The Real Life Survival Guide is a public radio program and web community where we look for solutions to the problems of everyday living. The radio show is heard Sunday afternoons at 4:30 on WNPR (wnpr.org), and features ideas for the guide that are pitched by a panel of guest editors. We create questions from these ideas, which are then "crowdsourced" on the RLSG website; www.reallifesurvivalguide.com We invite you to jump in and join the conversation!

Real Life Survival Guide Episode 47 | Our guest editors are getting really good at choosing interesting topics, and this week was no exception; we held a lively meeting at Mikro (pronounced micro - as in brewing) in Hamden. Around the table: Tod Harris, Barbara Oliver, Joel Sachs, and Raeleen Mautner. Todney Harris is a teacher, and throughout his career he has shared his passion for learning by emphasizing the Civil Rights Mov... | 5/20/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

Real Life Survival Guide Episode 46 | I don't want to say that serving adult beverages makes for better conversation, but in Episode 46, recorded at Nini's House of Tapas, the conversation flowed - and so did the vino! Joining the party; guest cohost Gerry McGuire (sitting in for Duo, who's back next week), Barbie Douglas, Katie Gerhard, Mary Elliot and Jon Crane. Jon Crane operates Critical PR, a public relations firm that... | 5/13/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

Real Life Survival Guide Episode 45 | I've known News 8 anchor Ann Nyberg for years now, and always describe her as "the whole package" - kind, generous... and drop dead gorgeous! Needless to say, when Ann offered to host Episode 45 of the Real Life Survival Guide, we couldn't say "YES" fast enough! Joining Ann and her boutique-mate (and great friend) Francine Piscitelli were Venetucci Home visionary Tony Venetucci, and returni... | 5/6/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

Real Life Survival Guide Episode 44 | We've been hearing great things about Olde School Saloon and Bistro in New Haven from some of our News 8 friends, and decided to record episode 44 during their jazz brunch on a recent Sunday afternoon. The next thing we knew, Chef/Owner Jeff Arnold was showing us a 19th century basement space that proved irresistible to our guest conversationalists - Rob Oliver, John Broker, Joe Amara... | 4/29/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

Real Life Survival Guide Episode 43 | It was a pretty raucous discussion at Caseus Fromagerie Bistro as we were joined by Owner (and Cooking Channel star) Jason Sobocinski who treated us to some great insights - and some incredible food and drink. (Mad props to Chuck from Chucklettes as well!) No less insightful were our AMAZING group of guest editors; Susan Bailin, Janice Christopher, Elizabeth Larkin and Colin Caplan. Sus... | 4/22/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

Real Life Survival Guide Episode 42 | The great thing about co-hosting (and producing) your own radio show is that you have a great deal of the coveted control. The problem, at least in my case, is that this means that I control the errors as well, and you'll hear a GLARING one about a minute into this week's effort. Fortunately, the parts of the show left to others (mainly Cindy, our intrepid producer, and the wonderful staff... | 4/15/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

Real Life Survival Guide Episode 41 | For the 41st meeting of our (extremely) informal "editorial board", we gathered, in the company of four *amazing* women, at Carmine's Tuscan Grill in New Haven. (Duo and I providing the "junk DNA".) Over delicious (and healthful!) appetizers, we talked about embarrassing moments, guilty pleasures - and choosing activities for summer vacations - with Deborah Pan, Kathy Barkin, and Anne Garl... | 4/8/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

Real Life Survival Guide Episode 40 | Our friends at Sitar in New Haven were kind enough to keep their amazing buffet open a little later than usual on a recent Sunday afternoon, and the result was a rollicking editorial meeting for the RLSG! We talked about April Fool's Day (of course!), college admissions - and meatballs - with guest editors Joanne Kahan, Kim Garley-Erb, Erika Horne and David Bailin. Joanne Kahan describe... | 4/1/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

Real Life Survival Guide Episode 39 | We recorded Episode 39 at a lovely corner table at Carmen Anthony Steakhouse in New Haven - over their award-winning chopped salad and crab cakes - with our guest editors, Laura Campbell, Scott Feinberg, Jud Smith, and Gerry McGuire. We talked about correcting people, our infatuation with the rich, and navigating the DMV... Gerry McGuire took his love of history, trivia, comedy, literature,... | 3/22/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

Real Life Survival Guide Episode 38 | We chose O'Toole's Irish Pub and Restaurant in New Haven as our venue for the 38th Real Life Survival Guide editorial board meeting, knowing that the show would air at the end of St. Patrick's Day weekend. (What we didn't know was the fact that the date would also mark the end of what the O'Toole's staff refers to as "the silly season".) This week's guest editors included Nanci Sklar, Suzan... | 3/18/12 | Free | View In iTunes |
